Central and southern Taiwan are to see warmer weather today, with daytime highs of 25°C to 27°C, but the mercury would dip to 15°C to 18°C at night, the CWA said. Temperatures in low-lying areas across the country may drop even lower tomorrow night into Wednesday due to radiative cooling effects — the cooling of the ground under clear skies, light winds and dry conditions, independent meteorologist Wu Der-rong (吳德榮) said.
