August 26 Typhoon Roundup: SAUDEL Approaches Zhejiang and Fujian, While NARRA Moves Deep into South China
Typhoon Bot original · 2026-08-26 · More Typhoon News · live track map
Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation
Today, the northwestern Pacific and South China Sea are experiencing an active period with two typhoons in play. Typhoon formation and landfalls have been significantly more frequent this year, with 21 typhoons already forming, five of which have made landfall in China—meeting the average annual landfall figure ahead of schedule. At present, the severe typhoon "SAUDEL" and tropical depression "NARRA" are having significant effects on China's eastern coast and southern China, respectively.
Analysis of Active Typhoons
This year's 18th typhoon, "SAUDEL," is currently located at 27.7°N, 127.7°E, with a central pressure of 955 hPa and maximum winds of 42 m/s. It is moving west-northwest at 14 km/h and gradually approaching the coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian. It is expected to make landfall from the night of the 27th to the morning of the 28th. In response, Zhejiang and other areas have raised their typhoon emergency response levels, while Ningbo and Zhoushan have activated high-level typhoon response measures along their coasts.
This year's 19th typhoon, "NARRA," is currently located at 20.4°N, 110.3°E, with a central pressure of 998 hPa and maximum winds of 15 m/s. It is moving north at 21 km/h. Its center made landfall again along the coast of Xuwen, Guangdong, in the early hours of today and then continued moving inland toward Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunnan, bringing marked windy and rainy weather to southern and southwestern China.
Public Opinion and Climate Focus
The recent concentration of typhoon activity has attracted widespread public attention. The public and weather enthusiasts are discussing why typhoons have been so frequent this year. Meteorologists point out that this is closely related to the current El Niño event, as generally elevated sea temperatures in the tropical Pacific have provided ample energy for typhoon formation. This year's typhoon tracks also appear to show a particular "preference" for East China, making it a focal point in discussions about climate anomalies.
Safety Advice for Typhoon and Flood Prevention
The coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian should remain highly alert for the violent winds and heavy rain brought by "SAUDEL." Personnel engaged in coastal operations should return to port and seek shelter promptly, and facilities vulnerable to wind damage should be reinforced. Southern and southwestern China should guard against continued heavy rainfall and the potential for flash floods and geological disasters triggered by the remnants of "NARRA." Residents are urged to closely monitor changes in the weather and arrange their travel plans accordingly.
Please refer to warnings issued by the CMA and local government authorities.
