Taipei in June
Not the best time
June tests your tolerance for heat and humidity with relentless summer weather and daily storms. But lower prices and smaller crowds reward those who can handle the climate.
Weather
June delivers full summer conditions with hot, humid days and frequent afternoon thunderstorms. The air feels thick and sticky, and rain comes in intense bursts that flood streets temporarily. Morning starts muggy and only gets worse as the day progresses.

All Months
October through April gives you Taipei's sweet spot — comfortable temperatures, less humidity, and minimal rain. December and January can get surprisingly chilly (think 50-60°F), but that's perfect weather for hot pot and night market wandering.
Avoid July and August unless you love feeling like you're inside a steam room. Temperatures hit 95°F with 80% humidity, and afternoon thunderstorms are basically guaranteed. Plus, it's typhoon season.
May and June sit on the edge — still pleasant, but humidity starts climbing. September can work if you don't mind some heat and the occasional tropical storm.
Chinese New Year (late January/early February) brings amazing food and decorations, but many restaurants close for 3-4 days. Book accommodations early — prices double and availability vanishes.
The plum blossom season in February turns Yangmingshan National Park into something magical. Cherry blossoms follow in March, though crowds can be intense on weekends.
