Warm, sunny weather forecast Monday across Taiwan

Taipei, April 21 (CNA) Partly cloudy to sunny skies will prevail across Taiwan on Monday, although some scattered afternoon showers are likely in mountainous areas, according to the Central Weather Administration (CWA).

Daytime temperatures are expected to reach 31-34 degrees Celsius in the western half of Taiwan on Monday, 29-30 degrees in the eastern half, and 35-36 degrees in valleys in the south, the CWA said.

The agency has issued an advisory for people to take appropriate measures to prevent sunburn and dehydration when going outdoors.

On Monday night, lows of 23-25 degrees are forecast across Taiwan, according to the CWA.

During the day, temperatures will be slightly lower in the outlying islands, the CWA said, forecasting daytime highs of 23-28 degrees in Penghu, 22-27 degrees in Kinmen, and 20-24 degrees in Matsu.

It warned, however, of poor visibility in Kinmen and Matsu due to fog and low clouds, which it said may affect flights to and from the islands.

The warm, sunny weather is expected to continue into Tuesday, after which a weather front will arrive, causing temperatures to drop by 5-6 degrees on Wednesday and bringing scattered showers to Taichung in central Taiwan and to northern areas of the country, according to the CWA.
