The Central Weather Administration (CWA) issued a high-temperature information today for Tainan, warning of temperatures reaching 36°C or higher. Weather expert Wu Der-rong noted that a front will approach tomorrow afternoon, causing a sudden weather shift in central and northern Taiwan. On April 30, central and northern areas, along with southern mountainous regions, should expect localized showers and thunderstorms.
From May 1 to 2, the weather is expected to turn sunny and hot again as the front moves away. However, Wu cautioned that the first front of the 'Meiyu' (plum rain) season might linger near northern Taiwan starting from May 4 to 7. Various international models show significant differences in rainfall intensity, so continuous observation is necessary. Matsu residents and travelers are also warned of heavy fog affecting visibility.
