Typhoon Summary for August 31: Bualoi Undergoes Extratropical Transition in Open Ocean, Saudel's Remnant Vortex Draws Attention
Typhoon Bot Original · 2026-08-31 Evening Edition · More typhoon news · live track map
Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation
This evening (August 31), typhoon activity in the Northwest Pacific and the South China Sea is characterized by "weakening and extratropical transition in the open ocean, and disturbances from remnant vortices near the coast." The only currently active typhoon at sea is gradually moving away from China. Meanwhile, the residual system of Typhoon "Saudel," which previously made landfall, has drawn close attention from meteorologists after re-entering the sea. Additionally, a new typhoon embryo is developing.
Analysis of Active Typhoon Dynamics
Typhoon No. 23 of the year, "Bualoi," is currently classified as a tropical storm. Its center is located over the Northwest Pacific Ocean at 36.2°N, 165.4°E, with a central pressure of 995 hPa and maximum sustained winds of 20 m/s. In terms of movement trends, "Bualoi" is gradually heading toward higher-latitude waters and is expected to undergo extratropical transition in the coming days. Due to its remote location far from China's coastline, it will have no direct wind or rain impact on the country.
Key Points of Public Concern
Recently, public attention has mainly focused on the following three aspects:
First is the subsequent development of "Saudel." After Typhoon No. 18, "Saudel," was discontinued, its remnant vortex moved southward across several provinces and re-entered the sea off the Guangdong coast this morning. The latest analysis indicates that this remnant vortex may redevelop into a tropical depression or even receive a new designation while over the water. Its potential impact on weather along the South China coast is being closely watched.
Second is the incubation of a new typhoon embryo. A tropical disturbance is actively developing in the waters east of the Philippines and is expected to become Typhoon No. 24, "Krovanh," in the future. Its movements require continuous monitoring.
Third is post-disaster recovery. As the impacts of previous typhases subside, major hubs such as the Port of Shanghai have quickly resumed busy operations, with maritime departments working fully to ensure shipping safety.
Meteorological Defense Tips
Although "Bualoi" is moving away, the remnant system of "Saudel" may still bring wind and rain to the South China coast after re-entering the sea, and a new typhoon embryo is developing. Residents in the South and Southeast coastal regions are advised to closely monitor short-term weather forecasts and take precautions against geological disasters caused by localized heavy rainfall. Vessels engaged in offshore operations should pay attention to changes in wind and waves and return to port in time to seek shelter.
Weather systems change rapidly. For specific defense measures, please refer to official warnings issued by the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local governments.
