Typhoon Jangmi is expected to pass east of Taiwan on Monday, bringing rain to northern and eastern areas [1].
While the storm is not forecast to make landfall, its proximity creates significant weather risks for windward regions and mountainous terrain. The trajectory of the system determines the intensity of precipitation and wind across the island's coastlines.
The Central Weather Administration (CWA) said the typhoon's core will remain east of the island [1]. However, outer rain bands are expected to affect windward regions, with showers likely in the mountains [1]. These conditions may lead to localized flooding, or landslides in high-elevation areas.
According to meteorological forecasts, the storm will continue to track north toward Japan after passing Taiwan [1]. Rain from the system could persist into Tuesday [1].
Local authorities continue to monitor the system's movement to ensure public safety. The CWA remains the primary source for updates on the storm's path and the potential for shifted trajectories that could bring the storm closer to the coast [1].
“Typhoon Jangmi is expected to pass east of Taiwan on Monday”
The expected path of Typhoon Jangmi suggests that Taiwan will avoid a direct hit, but the influence of outer bands remains a threat. The primary risk shifts from wind damage to hydrological hazards, specifically in the northern and eastern mountains where heavy rain often triggers instability. The subsequent movement toward Japan indicates a broader regional weather disruption across the Western Pacific.
