During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, rainy weather is expected, caution is advised when going outside. Today marks the first day of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, with Taiwan still under the influence of a low-pressure system causing southwest winds to gradually prevail. Southern Taiwan may experience intermittent brief showers or thunderstorms, while other regions may have mainly afternoon thunderstorms. High temperatures reaching 29 to 32 degrees across Taiwan will make it feel hot when not raining, with nighttime and early morning temperatures between 23 and 26 degrees. The Central Weather Bureau forecasts the influence of a front on Sunday and the festival days (9th and 10th), bringing warm and humid conditions with possibilities of scattered showers or thunderstorms in central and southern regions, brief rainfall in northern regions near the front, cloudy skies in Hualien and the likelihood of heavy afternoon rain in mountainous areas. Kinmen and Matsu may experience low clouds affecting visibility, so travelers to and from the islands should pay attention to flight information. From next Tuesday to next Friday (11th to 14th), as the front shifts slightly northward but southwest winds strengthen, rainfall in central and southern regions against the wind will widen. When convective cloud systems from the sea approach, brief heavy rain, thunder, and gusty winds may occur, otherwise, it will mainly be cloudy with afternoon showers in mountainous areas and a chance of localized heavy rain. The bureau reminds that Taiwan will see continued influence from moisture and the front, leading to frequent rainfall in the coming days. After recent earthquakes, mountainous areas have loose soil and rock, increasing the risk of landslides and rockfalls, so caution is advised during mountain activities for safety. Sudden afternoon thunderstorms can cause flash floods, especially in mountainous or valley areas, prompting vigilance for weather changes and maintaining safety awareness along mountain roads.
