Weather in October

[dilphinus]

How about mid Nov? Is it also likely or have chances to met typhoon as well? I might be able to travel during Nov and Dec already so am hoping to plan a trip whereas I have high chance to avoid typhoon (though things are hard to say) and hoping to see maple leaves (Autumn season)!

Which will be the best month for full autumn season?

Nov will be end of autumn. Nov/Dec considered winter. Then, the weather has been erratic for the last couple of years.

Thanks for your reply.

So if I were to go during 10~24 Nov, it will be slightly too early and not full autumn while if I were to go during 12~26 Dec, I will miss the autumn right? These are my only available travelling dates.. Can't travel during head and end of the month

I read online that Nov will be a better month to visit as Dec can get quite rainy.

But weather this kind is hard to say. I'm just hoping for cooler weather with no rain this time. The last time I visited Taipei was in June a few years back, it's hot and humid and rained every day - kenna attacked by mosquitoes left right centre.

Okay! Most likely will be Nov too since I really wanted to see Autumn for a long time. However, recently I asked one of my Taiwan's friend. She said that Nov is still very hot leh?! Really ah?

Ya that's what's being reported in the other thread here in the tw forum leh. Even in dec oso got people go there and report its hot. I think the weather is just wonky and unpredictable. Their hot won't be over 33 deg like in SG ba. Probably mid 20s? Accuweather seems to suggest that generally Nov temp is in the twenties range. Lowest 17 (which is probably at night or early in the morning) to around 25 (midday temp, most likely). Definitely not very cooling but not very hot either... as long as it's not rainy, I think that temperature range is pretty good.

Dec 2016 is hot.
Dec 2015 is cold.
Dec 2014 is cold.

The weather is not really predictable. As CK20 likes to quote, it is the el nino effect. lol...

Yar, weather is just unpredictable. Its really better to just book the tickets and hope for the best, lol. Ownself have to monitor when it's closer to the travel period to determine whether to bring jackets etc or not lor.

Best to tell them after Dec 2017!
No one has any absolute answers lately about Taiwan.
Even Sakura at Alishan is not full bloom yet!
Every single thing has just gone crazy.
