The wettest conditions are expected Tuesday and Wednesday, when rain and thunderstorms are forecast across Tainan (台南), Kaohsiung (高雄) and Pingtung (屏東). Localized heavy rain is also possible, especially in mountainous areas.

Kaohsiung will have a “typhoon holiday” on Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2025, the city government announced around 7:30 p.m.
Children near the Kaohsiung Times office could be heard celebrating the news. Others may welcome the break as well. Forecasters, however, expect heavy rainfall from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday, so residents should prepare and monitor conditions.

Experts say a smaller northward turn could send the storm across the Taiwan Strait, but a larger turn could place all areas from Miaoli to Pingtung within the impact zone.
