The research aims to investigate what weather conditions in Beitou district, Taipei are suitable for people to hang out or engage in outdoor activities. Data like average monthly temperature(18℃~25℃), rainfall (0mm)and relative humidity(45%~60%) from 2014 to 2018 are the resources with which we compare and contrast in the process of investigation.
First of all, we compare weather observation data of Zhong Zheng senior high (ZZSH) with the that in Central Weather Bureau, analyzing the yearly climatic changes and further the climatic phenomenon based on the data retrieved each day and per month.
Research revealed that the weather conditions from November 10th to 15th and December 1st to 6th best meet our need. According to the results in the investigation, the High Pressure Reflow Pattern can account for why the weather conditions during the specific dates in November and December were stable and nice. Moreover, windward side and leeward side have great impacts on the local rainfall; global warming also causes some problems, such as the weather of spring would become more unpredictable.
