Today's Typhoon Situation and Marine Overview

Today (September 10), the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea are generally calm, with no active tropical cyclone systems forming or operating. The previously active Typhoon SAUDEL has completely ended its lifecycle and is no longer being monitored, and the ocean surface has temporarily returned to calm. However, mid-September remains a peak period for autumn typhoon activity, and new typhoons may continue to develop.

Autumn Typhoon Facts and Historical Review

In the spirit of National Science Popularization Month, let us take a look at the characteristics of autumn typhoons. After entering September, the subsolar point has shifted southward, but the ocean has been heated throughout the summer, keeping sea surface temperatures high and providing ample energy for typhoon formation. Therefore, autumn typhoons often tend to be intense and follow complex tracks. Historically, numerous super typhoons have formed in September. In addition, cold air becomes more active in autumn, and when it combines with a typhoon, it can trigger extreme rainfall. This is another important reason why the destructive potential of autumn typhoons should never be underestimated.

Public Focus

Recently, the public has been paying close attention to the potential trend of upcoming typhoons. Based on forecasts from multiple sources, two to three typhoons are expected to make landfall in or significantly affect China this month. The main areas of concern include: first, the regions that may be affected by upcoming typhoons, particularly coastal provinces such as Zhejiang and Northeast China during the critical autumn harvest period; second, the trend toward above-average rainfall in China this autumn and the characteristics of typhoon activity in the context of an extreme El Niño event; and third, the risk of secondary disasters arising from the interaction of autumn typhoons and cold air.

Preparedness and Response Advice

Although no typhoon is directly affecting China at present, autumn weather systems are highly variable. Geological disasters caused by autumn rainfall remain a concern in some coastal and inland areas, and continued flood-control preparations, including for the Hanjiang River autumn flood season, are needed in places such as Hubei. While following the movements of new typhoons, the public should also remain alert to autumn cooling and abrupt weather changes, and make appropriate arrangements for travel and agricultural production.

Weather conditions can change rapidly. Please refer to warnings issued by the CMA and local government authorities for the latest information.
