Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation
On August 1, 2026 (Beijing Time), typhoon activity in the Northwest Pacific Ocean has become active again. The current focus on the ocean is on this year's 13th typhoon, "DOLPHIN." As the external circulation pattern changes, the system is continuously adjusting its structure over the ocean, making the evolution of its intensity and track the top priority for meteorological monitoring today.
Updates on Active Typhoon "DOLPHIN"
As of press time, the center of Super Typhoon "DOLPHIN" is located over the Northwest Pacific Ocean at 20.0°N, 158.8°E. The minimum central pressure near its center has dropped to 920 hPa, with maximum sustained winds reaching 60 m/s, demonstrating extremely powerful energy.
Regarding its movement trend, "DOLPHIN" is moving northwest at a speed of 23 km/h. According to the latest official forecast, by 05:00 on August 6, its center is expected to move to the vicinity of 25.8°N, 133.7°E. By then, its intensity will weaken, downgrading to the level of a severe typhoon. Since it is currently far from the Chinese mainland, it will not have any direct wind or rain impact on China within the next five days. However, there is uncertainty regarding its long-term path, and the coastal areas of China, Japan, and South Korea are all within its potential range of influence.
Public Concerns and Focus
Recently, public discussion about "DOLPHIN" has remained highly active. What people are most concerned about is the multiple fluctuations in its intensity. Due to internal structural adjustments, "DOLPHIN" recently underwent explosive intensification, reaching its third peak in intensity. On satellite imagery, its eye appears very clear and round. In addition, the public is closely watching its path direction for next week, speculating whether it will head directly toward China's coast. Meanwhile, influenced by related circulation patterns, many southern cities such as Fuzhou and Xiamen have entered a "muggy and steaming mode," with prolonged high-temperature weather also drawing widespread attention from netizens.
Meteorological Defense Tips
Although "DOLPHIN" will not pose a direct threat to China's landmass in the short term, vessels navigating and operating at sea still need to closely monitor its dynamics and avoid dangerous waters in a timely manner. Coastal residents and relevant departments should continue to track changes in its long-term path and make preliminary preparations for typhoon defense. In addition, people in high-temperature areas in the south need to take measures to prevent heatstroke and cool down, trying to avoid outdoor activities during the high-temperature periods in the afternoon.
Meteorological information changes rapidly; please refer to the official warnings issued by the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local governments.
