Today's Overall Typhoon Situation
Today is August 11, 2026. As of the evening, three tropical cyclone systems are active across China and surrounding waters. This year's No. 13 typhoon, DOLPHIN, has weakened to a tropical depression and moved deep inland, bringing wind and rain to several areas. Meanwhile, No. 15 typhoon CHAN-HOM and No. 16 typhoon PEILOU are both active over the northwestern Pacific and are expected to gradually move toward the west and east, respectively.
Analysis of Active Typhoons
Typhoon DOLPHIN (202613): It has weakened to a tropical depression, with its center located at 31°N, 115.1°E. Its central pressure is 998 hPa, and its maximum sustained wind speed is 15 m/s. It is moving northwest at 37 km/h and is expected to reach approximately 32.2°N, 113.3°E at 20:00 tonight, maintaining tropical depression intensity. Its residual circulation will continue to bring rainfall inland.
Typhoon CHAN-HOM (202615): The tropical storm is located at 36°N, 141.2°E, with a central pressure of 998 hPa and a maximum sustained wind speed of 18 m/s. It is currently moving west at 44 km/h and is expected to reach approximately 35.7°N, 135.4°E at 05:00 tomorrow, weakening to a tropical depression.

Public Focus on Weather Developments
Interest in meteorological topics remains high, with the public focusing on several main areas. First, attention has centered on DOLPHIN's unusual track and unusually long stay, with assessments indicating that its impact on Zhejiang reached an exceptionally severe level. Its sharp turn and lingering movement have sparked widespread discussion. Second, there has been confusion over rainfall distribution, with many people in Hubei asking why the typhoon's center was over Huanggang while extremely heavy rain occurred in Xiangyang and Shiyan. In addition, as DOLPHIN moved deeper inland, multiple cities and counties in Anhui, including Suzhou, Chuzhou, Hefei and Bengbu, issued dense typhoon warnings, while other areas, including Shandong, were also on high alert. Finally, meteorological authorities predict that multiple typhoons may form in August, and their subsequent development is attracting close attention.
Meteorological Safety Reminders
Although DOLPHIN has weakened, its abundant moisture is still combining with inland weather systems. Areas including Anhui should remain highly alert for the risk of prolonged heavy rainfall, which could cause urban and rural waterlogging and geological disasters. The two typhoons at sea currently have no direct impact on China's coastal waters, but their tracks must continue to be monitored. Flood-season weather is highly complex and variable, so please stay informed.
Please rely on warnings issued by the CMA and local government authorities.
