Univerisity campuses in Northern Taiwan battered by Tropical Storm Fengshen
Univerisity campuses in Northern Taiwan battered by Tropical Storm Fengshen
2025-10-20
Tropical Storm Fengshen and northeasterly winds have compounded into powerful downpours, especially in the north of the country. Among the hardest places hit was the Chinese Culture University campus, located on Yangmingshan. The university called off classes after 3 p.m. and has moved classes online starting Tuesday.
These university students were on the way to class on Monday morning. It was already raining quite heavily.

You can see how strong the storm is. It’s due to the combined strength of Tropical Storm Fengshen and northeastern seasonal monsoons. Taipei already had torrential rains starting on the evening of Oct. 19.
Due to the heavy rain, Chinese Culture University announced the suspension of classes starting at 3 in the afternoon, and for classes to go online starting Oct. 21.

It was already pretty heavy in the morning. But they only suspended classes at three. The announcement came a bit late. I wish they had made it earlier.
A long line forms at the bus stop by students eager to travel downhill and seek shelter from the storm, or for student living in the dorms, to stock up on supplies. Some other universities were also hit hard by the downpours.
The outdoor steps at Tamkang University now have a waterfall. The roads on campus have also become streams. A netizen joked that they finally found the river mentioned in the university’s Mandarin name.
National Chengchi Univerisity, located in Taipei’s hilly Wenshan District was also affected. Corridors running uphill had water gushing down, making for an arduous trek back to the dorms.

共伴效應發威! 北台灣雨彈狂炸多地 文化大學緊急停課
2025-10-20
風神颱風外圍環流和東北季風產生的共伴效應，暴雨襲擊北台灣，其中位於北市陽明山上的文化大學，今天(10日)颳起11級強陣風、日累積雨量達300毫米以上，因此校方緊急宣布，下午3點後停課，週二開始改為線上授課，至於淡江大學、政治大學校園內也傳出淹水災情。
週一上午，才剛步出房間準備出門上課，結果宿舍外風強雨驟，這一幕完全看傻眼。

“現場的狀況可以說是風強雨驟，由於風神颱風，加上，東北季風的共伴效應影響，從昨天(10/19)晚上開始，台北市就下起大豪雨”
文化大學緊急宣布，下午3點過後停課，隔天開始採取線上授課。

“早上就開始下滿大的(雨) ，但是因為，後來就是下午說上到三點，宣布(停課)有點太晚，希望是再早一點”
公車候車亭，大排長龍，通通都是要趕著下山躲風雨，或急忙趕去連鎖超市囤貨，就連其他大學也出現災情。
淡江大學的好漢坡階梯瀑布再現，校園街道也變成漂漂河，有網友幽默表示，"終於知道淡江的江是什麼江了？"
位於北市文山區的政治大學，從昨晚開始下起豪雨，邊坡變成一條長長河道，學生回宿舍，必須要溯溪，涉水而過。
