Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation

On July 29, the weather pattern across the Northwest Pacific and inland China was characterized by "strong typhoons brewing over the open ocean and continued flood prevention inland." Although this year's 12th typhoon, "NOUL," has ceased to be numbered, its remnant circulation continues to bring heavy rainfall to inland areas. Meanwhile, the 13th typhoon, "DOLPHIN," located far out at sea, has officially strengthened into a super typhoon, becoming the dominant weather system over the ocean.

Analysis of Active Typhoons

Typhoon DOLPHIN (202613)

At present, the center of "DOLPHIN" is located at 13.9°N, 169.6°E, with a central pressure of 925 hPa and maximum sustained winds of 58 m/s. It is moving west-northwest at 20 km/h. According to the latest official forecast, its center is expected to reach approximately 25.6°N, 150.5°E by the morning of August 3, when it is still expected to remain a super typhoon. Since "DOLPHIN" is currently far from China, it will not have any direct impact on China's coastal areas for the time being. However, close attention should continue to be paid to its massive circulation system and future track.

Public Focus on Current Typhoon Developments

In light of recent meteorological developments, public attention is mainly focused on the following three aspects:

First, there is widespread concern about why heavy rain continues in Guangdong, Hunan, and other areas even after "NOUL" has ceased to be numbered. This is mainly because the low-pressure circulation left behind after the typhoon weakened combined with the monsoon, resulting in prolonged rainfall.

Second, the debut of "high-tech" meteorological observation tools has attracted attention. For the first time, researchers have used a swarm of drones to conduct three-dimensional observations throughout the entire landfall process of a typhoon, sparking heated discussions about the continued advancement of China's meteorological capabilities.

Finally, disaster recovery and urban flood prevention remain major concerns. Many parts of Southern China are making full efforts to drain accumulated water and remove mud and debris. The public is closely following the progress of floodwaters receding and the restoration of everyday life.

Meteorological Safety Reminders

Although "DOLPHIN" remains far out at sea, the residual effects of "NOUL" are still ongoing. Parts of Southern China and Jiangnan region should remain alert for secondary hazards, including flash floods, landslides, and urban and rural waterlogging, which may be triggered by continued heavy rain. People should avoid traveling to mountainous areas and other hazardous locations whenever possible. Ships engaged in long-distance voyages and offshore operations should take care to avoid areas affected by the typhoon.

Weather conditions can change rapidly. Please closely monitor the latest weather forecasts, and follow all instructions and official warnings issued by the CMA and local governments.
