Original by Typhoon Bot · 2026-09-17 · More Typhoon News · live track map
Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation
As the Northwest Pacific enters the active phase for autumn typhoons, tropical systems in the open ocean are frequently emerging. Late last night, this year's 25th typhoon, "Dujuan," was officially assigned a number. Currently, thermal conditions in the remote ocean areas are favorable, and new typhoon systems may be brewing. The overall sea surface presents a complex situation with multiple co-existing systems.
Analysis of Active Typhoon "Dujuan"
As a typhoon formed at the beginning of this week, "Dujuan" is currently in its development stage. Its center is located over the Northwest Pacific Ocean at 18.1°N, 149.7°E, with a minimum central pressure of 995 hPa and maximum sustained winds of 20 m/s, maintaining the intensity of a tropical storm.
In terms of movement, "Dujuan" is advancing northward at a speed of 40 km/h. According to the latest official forecast track, its center is expected to reach the vicinity of 40.9°N, 151.6°E by 5:00 AM on September 22, with its intensity likely increasing to that of a severe tropical storm. Since it is currently positioned far to the east and active in the open ocean, it will have no direct wind or rain impact on mainland China in the short term.
Public Focus
From recent meteorological discussions, the core concern for the public is whether "Dujuan" will disrupt travel plans during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. Meteorological analysis points out that its later path still carries significant uncertainty. If the subtropical high breaks, the typhoon might move northward through the gap or turn. Furthermore, the Northwest Pacific seems to have become a "hotspot" for typhoons; after "Dujuan," new systems may be queuing up. The coastal areas of East China will face a critical window for weather changes around the 19th, which is a key focus for coastal residents and tourists.
Defense and Response Tips
Autumn typhoons are known for their erratic paths and potential for rapid intensification. Although "Dujuan" is currently far out in the open ocean, vessels operating at sea and coastal aquaculture areas should still monitor changes in wind and waves in advance. As the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday approaches, people with travel plans are advised to closely follow upcoming weather forecasts and warning information to arrange their itineraries reasonably.
Please refer to the official warnings issued by the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local governments.
