Typhoon Summary for July 29: DOLPHIN Becomes a Super Typhoon, NANGKA's Remnants Bring Rain
Typhoon Bot original · 2026-07-29 · More typhoon news · live track map
Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation
On July 29, the weather pattern in the Northwest Pacific and inland areas was characterized by "a powerful typhoon brewing in the open ocean and ongoing flood prevention efforts inland." Although Tropical Storm NANGKA (No. 12) has been decommissioned, its residual circulation continues to cause heavy precipitation in inland regions. Meanwhile, Typhoon DOLPHIN (No. 13), located deep in the open ocean, has officially intensified into a super typhoon, becoming the dominant system over the sea.
Analysis of Active Typhoon Dynamics
Typhoon DOLPHIN (202613)
Currently, 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, by the morning of August 3, its center is expected to reach near 25.6°N, 150.5°E, maintaining super typhoon intensity. As DOLPHIN is currently far from China, it will not directly impact the domestic coastal areas with wind or rain for now. However, close attention should be paid to its extensive circulation system and future track evolution.
Public Concerns and Hot Topics
Combining recent meteorological highlights, public attention is mainly focused on the following three aspects:
First is the confusion regarding "rain continuing after decommissioning." Many people are concerned about why heavy rain persists in Guangdong, Hunan, and other places after NANGKA was decommissioned. This is mainly because its weakened low-pressure circulation has merged with the monsoon, leading to sustained precipitation.
Second is the debut of "black tech" in meteorological observation. Researchers used swarm drones for the first time to conduct three-dimensional observations of the entire typhoon landfall process, sparking heated discussions among netizens about the enhancement of China's meteorological technological capabilities.
Third is post-disaster recovery and urban flood prevention. Many places in South China are making full efforts to drain accumulated water and clear silt. The public is highly concerned about the progress of alleviating urban waterlogging and the subsequent guarantees for restoring daily life.
Meteorological Defense Tips
Although DOLPHIN is far out in the open ocean, the residual impacts of NANGKA are still ongoing. Parts of South China and Jiangnan need to remain vigilant against secondary disasters such as flash floods, mudslides, and urban/rural waterlogging caused by continuous heavy rain, and should avoid going to dangerous areas such as mountainous regions. Ships navigating and operating in the open ocean should please avoid sea areas affected by the typhoon.
Weather changes rapidly. Please pay close attention to the latest weather forecasts, and always refer to the official warnings issued by the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local governments.
