19:00 Update: Central Weather Administration Lifts Heavy Rain Special Report
The Central Weather Administration lifted the heavy rain special report at 2026-07-07 19:00, indicating that rainfall is easing and the probability of heavy rain has decreased. This station also marked the heavy rain observation alert for this round in northern and central mountainous Indigenous townships as lifted.
Lifting the heavy rain special report does not mean all mountainous roads, streams, bridges, schools, or public services are free from individual controls; if local governments, town halls, highway authorities, schools, or disaster preparedness agencies still have announcements, official real-time notifications take precedence.

Alert Level

Recommended Actions
- The current round of heavy rain special report has been lifted, but mountainous and stream environments may still be affected by short-duration rainfall or prior water accumulation.
- If you still need to enter mountainous roads, stream beds, slopes, construction sections, and rockfall hotspots, check local government, highway authority, and town hall announcements first.
- Low-lying residents and agricultural facilities should continue checking drainage and equipment conditions.
- For student transportation, elderly medical visits, and public service schedules, remain attentive to local real-time announcements.
Official Real-Time Notifications Take Precedence
This quick report helps organize the Central Weather Administration's special reports and associated Indigenous township areas; actual evacuations, school closures, road closures, bridge controls, or public service adjustments are subject to official real-time notifications from central and local governments, highway authorities, schools, and disaster preparedness agencies.
