NORTH

The cool feel of autumn envelops the north region today as a weak, reinforcing shot of cooler and drier air slides across the northernmost portion of the region. Skies will be fair to partly cloudy across the region, except in parts of interior China where moisture overrides the cooler surface layer ahead of the next surge, which will be significant. Starting this weekend in the northern locales of the region, and sweeping south and east through next week, one can only say “winter is coming”.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Ulaanbaatar	-5	-13	23	9	Mostly fair
Vladivostok	-1	-9	30	16	Partly cloudy
Beijing	12	2	54	36	Mostly fair
Seoul	11	3	52	37	Mostly fair
Tokyo	14	9	57	48	Partly cloudy
Xi’an	16	9	61	48	Mostly cloudy
Shanghai	19	14	66	57	Partly cloudy

 

CENTRAL

The central region will enjoy a warm mind-autumn day with most locations looking forward to a nice day. A few showers will slide up the terrain of Taiwan as the strong seasonal monsoon flow brings in moisture from the northeast. The next big cool-down for the central region will start in the middle of next week, as a strong frontal system works its way into the region.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Kunming	21	8	70	46	Partly cloudy
Hong Kong	28	23	82	73	Mostly fair
Taipei	26	21	79	70	Scattered showers likely
Naha	26	21	79	70	Mostly fair
Hanoi	29	21	84	70	Partly cloudy

 

SOUTH

High pressure extends to the south over portions of Indochina and the Philippines as the northeast monsoon gets stronger over the region. A plume of tropical moisture, associated with the remnants of what was 27W MA-ON, will continue moving through the northern Philippines today, bringing a good chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms. More tropical moisture will be trucked into the archipelago over the next 5 days, so some rainy weather can be expected for the country as we end the week. Showers and thunderstorms are also quite likely for locations to the south as deep tropical moisture remains undisturbed by continental influences from the north.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Siem Reap	34	23	93	73	Mostly fair
Ho Chi Minh	34	25	93	77	Partly cloudy
Manila	32	26	90	79	Scattered thunderstorms likely
Davao City	32	24	90	75	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Brunei	32	24	90	75	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Singapore	29	24	84	75	Thunderstorms possible

 

TROPICS

The tropics have fallen silent as the change of seasons brings in cooler, drier air and changes the atmospheric dynamics.

We did have 97W INVEST out there south of the Mariana Islands yesterday, but that disturbance was taken off the “books’ overnight, so now we just have widespread areas of convergence, especially south of 10N latitude. Several moisture plumes are evident on PWAT (Precipitable Water Vapor) imagery, and will be sliding through the region for the foreseeable future. Most locations in the tropics will see an afternoon of scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms, with lots of warm sunshine in between the showers.

City	High/Low C		High/Low F		Conditions
Guam	31	27	88	81	Thunderstorms likely
Yap	29	27	84	81	Thunderstorms likely
Palau	29	26	84	79	Scattered thunderstorms likely
Chuuk	30	26	86	79	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Pohnpei	29	26	84	79	Scattered thunderstorms possible
Majuro	28	27	82	81	Thunderstorms likely
Wake	29	26	84	79	Partly cloudy

 

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
