Conditions improve a bit over most of the north region as the unsettled weather rolls into the central region. More heat is on the menu for the south region but temperatures are easing up slightly, while the tropics stay very quiet.
NORTH
A vigorous spring storm system is moving eastward out into the Pacific east of Japan today. Another weaker, and rather dry, storm system is moving through northern China as well. Clouds and showers associated with these storm systems will affect parts of eastern Russia, Korea, and Japan through the day. Conditions across the remainder of the north region are improving as high pressure builds into the region behind the two weather systems. Temperatures remain quite warm, but are closer to climatological levels now that we have progressed through the mid-month of April.

CENTRAL
A frontal system associated with the strong storm system moving east of Japan is slowly edging to the southeast across the central region today. Clouds and rain are in store for the entire coast of southeastern China and Taiwan, with a few scattered thunderstorms possible for western China. The rest of the central region will see a nice, warm day with plenty of sunshine.

SOUTH
It’s another day of intensely hot and humid weather across the south region, but thankfully, temperatures are down a bit from last week’s hellish readings. Heat indices across much of the south region could reach 44C (111F), especially over interior locales of the Philippines, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand, and across all of Laos. A few scattered thunderstorms are possible across Singapore, but the rest of the region will see plenty of sunshine and just a few scattered clouds.

TROPICS
The weather is very quiet across the tropics today, with nothing in the way of focused convection anywhere in the region. A few scattered showers are possible in parts of eastern and Western Micronesia, otherwise, the islands of the tropics will enjoy a sunny day with just a few clouds here and there.
