Original by Typhoon Bot · Evening Edition, 2026-09-16 · More Typhoon News · live track map
Today's Typhoon Situation
In the Northwest Pacific, this year's 25th typhoon, "DUJUAN," has recently been assigned a number and entered an active phase. As of the evening of today (September 16), DUJUAN remains at tropical storm intensity, moving steadily northward. Meanwhile, tropical disturbances in the Northwest Pacific remain active, and it is worth continuing to observe whether new typhoons will form in the future.
Current Status and Trend of Typhoon "DUJUAN"
Currently, the center of "DUJUAN" is located at 16.4°N, 149.2°E, in the open waters of the Northwest Pacific. The maximum wind speed near the center is 18 m/s, with a central pressure of 998 hPa, placing its intensity at the lower end of the tropical storm category. It is moving northward at a speed of 34 km/h, indicating a relatively fast pace.
According to official forecasts, by 20:00 on September 21, "DUJUAN" is expected to move north to approximately 37.5°N, 144.9°E and intensify into a severe tropical storm. This means that over the next few days, it will continue to develop over the sea with some increase in intensity. However, its track will generally remain northerly, primarily affecting the mid-to-high latitude waters of the Northwest Pacific. Due to its considerable distance from China's mainland, it will not have any direct wind or rain impact on China's coastal waters and land areas in the short term. However, as it moves north, it may bring strong winds to the seas east of Japan; vessels in these relevant waters should take note.
Public Concerns
Based on reports from various media platforms today, public attention regarding "DUJUAN" focuses mainly on several aspects: first, whether it will affect the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday; second, whether it can reach severe typhoon or even super typhoon intensity in the future; and third, whether the Northwest Pacific will continue to generate new typhoons, creating a "typhoon nest" effect. Many reports mention that multiple tropical systems may be active in the South China Sea and the Northwest Pacific over the next ten days, making the weather situation during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays a focal point of discussion.
It should be noted that "DUJUAN" is currently far from China, and there is still room for adjustments in its path and intensity. Whether East China, South China, and other regions will be affected by its outer circulation during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday needs to be confirmed based on subsequent forecasts. The public does not need to be overly anxious but should remain attentive.
Defense Tips
Although "DUJUAN" will not directly make landfall in China for the time being, autumn typhoons often have variable paths and rapid changes in intensity. If the position of the subtropical high adjusts later on, its path may still shift westward. Residents in coastal areas and personnel working at sea should continuously monitor typhoon updates issued by the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local meteorological departments. With the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday approaching, friends with travel plans should pay attention to the latest forecasts and arrange their itineraries reasonably. Please refer to the official warnings from the CMA and local governments as the standard.
