Typhoon Bot original · 2026-09-05 · More typhoon news · live track map
Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation
As we enter September, the typhoon stage in the Northwest Pacific has not quieted down. Today, the focus is on the East China Sea, while earlier typhoons that caused significant impact have gradually faded from attention. Overall, the active period for autumn typhoons continues, and vigilance is still required regarding the generation and development of new systems.
Analysis of Active Typhoon Dynamics
The only currently active typhoon at sea is No. 24, "Krathon." Today, its center was located over the eastern waters of the East China Sea at 28.1°N, 126.5°E. The maximum sustained wind speed near the center was Force 8 (23 m/s), with a minimum central pressure of 990 hPa. Notably, "Krathon" recently experienced a looping motion in the East China Sea before making a sharp turn. It is currently moving southward at 18 km/h. According to the latest forecast, it will gradually turn southeastward over the sea, with its intensity slowly weakening. It is expected to weaken into a tropical depression by the afternoon of the 7th. Influenced by its outer circulation, significant strong winds will affect the coastal areas of Zhejiang, Shanghai, and the East China Sea, accompanied by localized precipitation.
Public Concerns and Focus Points
Recent public discussion on typhoons has remained heated, focusing mainly on three aspects. First is the unusual activity of typhoons in September. So far this year, 24 typhoons have formed in the Northwest Pacific. Experts point out that this is closely related to El Niño and global warming backgrounds. It is predicted that two to three more typhoons may make landfall in China this month, with even the possibility of northward movement affecting northern regions. Second is the complex path of "Krathon." Its rare reversal trajectory has drawn widespread attention from residents in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai regarding potential wind and rain impacts over the weekend. Additionally, although No. 18 typhoon "Shandel," which made landfall earlier, has been decommissioned, post-disaster recovery remains a priority in some affected areas. Meanwhile, the brewing of the new typhoon "Dujuan" is also attracting the attention of weather enthusiasts.
Meteorological Defense and Safety Tips
Facing the still-active autumn typhoons, coastal areas need to remain vigilant. Regions such as Zhejiang and Shanghai, affected by the outer bands of "Krathon," should ensure that maritime vessels return to ports for shelter and implement wind protection measures for coastal aquaculture. Precautions should be taken against the adverse effects of strong winds on high-altitude operations and outdoor facilities. Furthermore, September typhoons often feature variable paths and fluctuating intensities. The public should closely monitor the latest forecasts and must not lower their guard simply because a typhoon has not yet made direct landfall.
Please refer to official warnings from the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local governments.
