By / MOOK Scenic Spots Family Editorial Team Compilation & Report

As we gradually move toward the end of winter, cold air masses from the higher northern latitudes remain active. According to the Central Weather Bureau, starting tonight, the northeast monsoon will slightly intensify along with the southward movement of the continental cold air mass, leading to a sharp drop in temperatures. The cold air will only gradually weaken after the 28th, bringing a slight rise in temperature. From the 24th to the 27th, affected by the continental cold air mass and increased moisture, rainfall will be more noticeable in areas north of central Taiwan and in the eastern regions, while there is also a chance of localized brief showers in the south. Windward areas and mountainous regions may experience heavier rainfall.

This wave of cold and damp air will last for five days, bringing significant weather fluctuations. It gets colder as time goes on, so travelers are advised to take proper warmth precautions when going out.
