Colder air settles in over parts of the north region, as the central region sees their second consecutive day of nice weather, uncommon during the monsoon season. The south stays hot but moisture is increasing over the region, and that moisture is coming from the tropics, which aren’t looking too impressive, but still showing slow signs of things to come. 

NORTH

As one warm storm system moves out of the north region to the northeast, another, colder, storm system moves in from the northwest. Portions of Mongolia and northern china saw snowfall yesterday, as the late-season shot of frigid air made its way through. Temperatures are much lower across the northern two-thirds of the north region, partly due to significant cloud-cover associated with the strong cold front sweeping through the region, and partly because the air behind the front is so much cooler. Northeastern China, eastern Russia, and Korea can expect a good chance of showers, and sharply dropping temperatures, as the front rolls through your areas. The remainder of the region will see seasonable temperatures with partly cloudy skies.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Ulaanbaatar	13	1	55	34	Mostly sunny
Vladivostok	14	7	57	45	Partly cloudy
Beijing	22	8	72	46	Periods of rain
Seoul	24	13	75	55	Increasing clouds
Tokyo	23	17	73	63	Mostly sunny
Xi’an	23	14	73	57	Partly cloudy
Shanghai	25	16	77	61	Mostly sunny

 

CENTRAL

For the second consecutive day, the central region will be mostly dominated by favorable weather conditions, as we get a bit of a break in the seasonal East Asian monsoon. A few clouds will linger over the Ryukyu Islands as a cold front slides slowly eastward. A few thunderstorms could pop up along the tail end of that front over Taiwan. Everyone else will see a good dose of sunshine today with seasonably warm temperatures.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Kunming	28	13	82	55	Mostly sunny
Hong Kong	30	25	86	77	Mostly sunny
Taipei	30	23	86	73	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Naha	27	24	81	75	Decreasing clouds
Hanoi	29	25	84	77	Partly cloudy

 

SOUTH 

The hottest air continues to be projected over the south region, as the tropical moisture continues to build over the region. This moisture is bringing much-needed drought relief to many portions of the region, which have been affected by the disturbed weather patterns brought about by the waning El Nino. Most locations across the region will see a chance for showers and thunderstorms today. Heat indices will still be quite high over interior portions of Southeast Asia and the northern Philippines.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Siem Reap	36	27	97	81	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Ho Chi Minh	36	28	97	82	Partly cloudy
Manila	35	26	95	79	Thunderstorms likely
Davao City	34	26	93	79	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Brunei	32	26	90	79	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Singapore	32	27	90	81	Thunderstorms likely

 

 TROPICS 

Ripples of energy embedded in the general westward flow of the I.T.C.Z. (Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone) continue to slowly propagate through the region. Activity has waned a bit today, but two main sources of energy are out there, one located to the southwest of the Philippines, and the second located in eastern Micronesia. General cloudiness, ample moisture, and intense afternoon sunshine dominate over the region, so everyone stands a chance of an afternoon shower or thunderstorms today.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Guam	32	27	90	81	Mostly sunny
Yap	33	27	91	81	Thunderstorms likely
Palau	30	26	86	79	Thunderstorms likely
Chuuk	30	26	86	79	Thunderstorms likely
Pohnpei	29	24	84	75	Thunderstorms likely
Majuro	30	27	86	81	Thunderstorms likely
Wake	27	25	81	77	Periods of rain

Have a thrilling Thursday!
