Now that Spring has officially begun, the Central Weather Bureau is looking ahead to the weather for the next few months. An average to warm spring is forecast, with average or slightly less-than-average rainfall, although Taiwan may still welcome several cold air masses from the north throughout March. This weekend, however, warm and sunny weather is guaranteed across the country.
