Two tropical storms are currently active in the Western Pacific: Bebinca and Pulasan. And a third one could be on its way. A tropical depression south of Taiwan is expected to strengthen into a storm called Soulik on Tuesday. The storm is set to head straight west across the South China Sea, far away from Pulasan. Let’s hear from the Central Weather Administration.

Tropical Storm Pulasan is expected to track northwest to west-northwest past the Ryukyu Archipelago to ultimately make landfall in Central China. It may oscillate north and south somewhat, but it will remain rather weak. So the main factor affecting the weather in Taiwan is still the moisture in northeasterly winds led by the storm’s periphery.

Pulasan will be closest to Taiwan on Thursday, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the weather. After the Mid-Autumn Festival on Tuesday, Taiwan will be left in a low pressure zone. That means rainy weather is on the forecast for the first day back at work in the north, east and south of the island.
