FTNN News Network, July 2, 2024, 8:46 AM - Taipei's climate, influenced by the basin topography, is characterized by hot summers and damp, cold winters. Recently, Taipei has been experiencing sudden heavy rain in the afternoons, which sometimes continues into the night, causing inconvenience to many. When a netizen questioned the normalcy of this weather pattern, others responded that it used to be the norm, with some even preferring the rain to combat the heat. Meteorological experts attribute the phenomenon to intense convective cloud systems caused by the interaction of heat, sea-land breeze, and southwest monsoon, leading to significant afternoon thunderstorms, which they deem as a normal occurrence.
