Original by Typhoon Bot · Evening Edition, 2026-09-25 · More Typhoon News · live track map

It is the evening of September 25, and typhoon activity in the Northwest Pacific continues. This year's 26th typhoon, "Surigae," has developed steadily since its formation and has currently intensified to a severe tropical storm. Although its formation coincides with the approach of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, its overall track poses no direct threat to mainland China, with major impacts concentrated on the open ocean and areas toward Japan.

Active Typhoon Update: Surigae (202626)

Currently, the center of "Surigae" is located over the sea near 20.8°N, 128.6°E, with a minimum central pressure of 985 hPa and maximum sustained winds of 25 m/s (severe tropical storm level). It is moving west-northwest at 16 km/h. According to the latest official forecasts, the system will gradually turn northeast around the 27th, heading toward waters south of Japan, and is expected to reach the vicinity of 32.2°N, 139°E by 17:00 on September 30, by which time its intensity will decrease to tropical storm level. As the path moves gradually away from China's coast, it will have no direct impact on domestic land areas.

Public Focus: Mid-Autumn Moon Viewing and Holiday Travel

Based on today's media reports, the public is most concerned about weather conditions during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. Due to Surigae's easterly position and turning track, netizens in many parts of Guangdong are paying close attention to whether it will affect moon viewing. The good news is that the typhoon is merely "passing by at a distance"; cities such as Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Foshan will experience stable weather during the holiday, making them suitable for moon viewing. Additionally, some coastal cities are monitoring temperature drops, while transportation departments have implemented preventive measures for passenger and cargo transport safety during the flood and typhoon season. Meanwhile, heavy rains in Japan's Kanto region, caused by the outer circulation of the 25th typhoon, "Dujuan," have also drawn attention to extreme weather overseas.

Defense and Safety Tips

Although "Surigae" has no direct impact on China's landmass, wind and waves remain significant in the open ocean, and vessels in relevant waters should exercise caution. Please monitor closely for strong winds and heavy rain that may occur in waters south of Japan, affecting local and transiting ships. While there is no threat of wind or rain to domestic coastal areas, autumn weather is variable, so travelers should still pay attention to local weather changes during the holiday. Offshore operations and facilities such as marine ranches must continue routine inspections to ensure equipment safety.

Finally, we remind readers that weather conditions can change rapidly. For specific wind and flood prevention arrangements and the latest track predictions, please refer to official warnings from the CMA (China Meteorological Administration) and local governments.
