Today's Overall Typhoon Situation
Two typhoons are currently active in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea. Typhoon No. 18, “SAUDEL,” is moving steadily westward toward the coastal areas of Fujian and Guangdong, bringing significant wind and rain to southern China and Taiwan; Typhoon No. 24, “KROVANH,” is moving northwestward over the eastern East China Sea, mainly affecting maritime operations. Overall, today's typhoon and flood prevention priorities are concentrated along China's southeastern coast.
Analysis of Active Typhoons
Typhoon “SAUDEL”
At present, the center of “SAUDEL” is located at 23.9°N, 117.6°E, with a central pressure of 987 hPa and maximum sustained winds of 20 m/s. It is moving westward at 20 km/h and is expected to reach the central and southern coastal areas of Guangdong tomorrow morning, weakening to a tropical depression. Directly affected by the typhoon, southern Fujian and the eastern coast of Guangdong will face strong winds and heavy rain. Its outer circulation is also bringing significant rainfall to Taiwan.
Typhoon “KROVANH”
The center of Typhoon No. 24, “KROVANH,” is located at 25.0°N, 130.8°E, with a central pressure of 995 hPa and maximum sustained winds of 20 m/s. It is moving northwestward at 26 km/h and is expected to weaken to a tropical depression over the East China Sea on the afternoon of the 5th. The typhoon will mainly affect the East China Sea and waters near the Ryukyu Islands in the future. It poses no direct and serious threat to China's land areas, but vessels operating in the affected waters should take precautions and seek shelter from the storm.
Public Attention and Warning Highlights
Today, the public and media are closely following changes in the track of “SAUDEL” and its renewed development prior to landfall. Meteorological authorities have warned that its outer circulation is bringing short-duration, heavy rainfall to many parts of Taiwan. The northern coast of Keelung, Yilan, and the mountainous areas of Greater Taipei must remain on guard for localized heavy rain. Meanwhile, Meizhou in Guangdong and Zhangzhou in Fujian have issued dense blue and yellow typhoon warning signals, while discussion of the impacts of strong winds and rain continues to rise among coastal residents and tourists.
Defensive Measures
People in coastal Fujian, Guangdong, and Taiwan should closely monitor changes in wind and rainfall conditions, minimize unnecessary travel, and stay away from coastal areas and mountainous zones prone to flooding and landslides. Offshore work platforms and passing vessels should return to port promptly to take shelter. Relevant departments in all localities should inspect urban drainage systems and potential geological hazard sites.
Please refer to the warnings issued by the CMA and local government authorities.
