Typhoon Mora’s pathway has drastically shifted westwards, and the Taiwan Meteorological Bureau is expected to release a land typhoon warning as early as today’s noon. The typhoon’s wind circle is projected to make landfall on Taiwan within 24 hours, and the full coverage will occur between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m., with the strongest winds and rains.
The latest European and AI forecasts suggest that Mora is 'drastically shifting westwards', with the probability of making a direct landfall in Taiwan rising to almost 20%. Background: Over the past decade, the proportion of typhoons making landfall in Taiwan has been around 10%, and the 2022 Super Typhoon Morakot set a historical high, so the risk of Mora making landfall in Taiwan is non-negligible.
According to the latest predictions, the Taiwan Meteorological Bureau is expected to issue a land typhoon warning around 11:30 a.m. today. The seven-level wind storm circle is expected to make contact with the Taiwan mainland around 4 a.m. tomorrow, and fully cover the entire island between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m., with the strongest winds and rains.
