According to WeatherRisk, the Pacific high pressure is strengthening, leading to a decrease in afternoon thunderstorms and a further rise in temperature, with no typhoons expected in the short term. The weather this week will remain stable, influenced by the Pacific high pressure, maintaining a pattern of hot and humid weather with afternoon thunderstorms in the summer. Due to the strengthened high pressure, rainfall will decrease, and warm air combined with intense sunlight will cause temperatures to remain high, reaching 34-36 degrees Celsius with some areas possibly experiencing extreme highs of 37-38 degrees. UV radiation levels are also high, so precautions against heatstroke and sunburn are advised. Although the summer has officially begun in Taiwan, the typhoon season has yet to start, with no tropical disturbances or typhoons expected in early July due to the dominant Pacific high pressure. Typhoon activity may become more likely in mid-July when the high pressure weakens and tropical disturbances have a better chance to develop.
