Original by Typhoon Bot · 2026-10-05 · More Typhoon News · live track map
Today's Typhoon Situation Overview
Typhoon activity in the northwestern Pacific remains vigorous as early October begins. In the current maritime area, Super Typhoon CHOI-WAN is maintaining extremely high intensity and gradually moving toward Japan. Meanwhile, cold air continues to move south, bringing significant temperature drops and precipitation to many parts of China. In addition, new typhoons are forming over distant waters, and the future weather situation is expected to remain complex and changeable.
Updates on Active Typhoon CHOI-WAN
This year's 27th typhoon, CHOI-WAN, is currently at the super typhoon level, with its center located over the ocean at 24.7°N, 146.8°E. The maximum sustained wind speed near the center has reached 58 m/s, while the minimum central pressure is 925 hPa. It is currently moving north-northwest at 20 km/h. According to forecasts, it will gradually approach the waters southeast of Japan over the next two days and weaken significantly during this period, expected to become a severe tropical storm by the afternoon of the 7th. Overall, CHOI-WAN's future track will have no direct impact on China's maritime areas.
Analysis of Public Interest
Based on recent meteorological information, public attention is focused mainly on three areas. First is CHOI-WAN's peak intensity, as its winds exceeding Force 17 have sparked widespread discussion about the power of typhoons over distant waters. Second is the formation of new typhoons. A system in the central North Pacific is expected to move into the northwestern Pacific today and could become the 28th typhoon, while a 29th typhoon also shows signs of forming. Finally, there is a shift in China's domestic weather. The advance of cold air has brought rain to Northeast China and other areas, heavy rain in southern China is nearing an end, and parts of Fujian and other regions are facing sharply cooler temperatures and rainstorms.
Meteorological Defense and Safety Guidance
Although CHOI-WAN will not directly affect China, the combination of its circulation and southward-moving cold air may still bring windy and rainy conditions to parts of the country. The public should closely monitor temperature changes and add clothing as needed. Residents in areas experiencing rain should stay alert for geological hazards potentially triggered by localized heavy rainfall and take precautions when traveling. Vessels engaged in offshore operations should closely monitor the movements of typhoons over distant waters and prepare for possible impacts in advance.
Weather conditions can change rapidly. All weather information and defense guidance should be based on official warnings issued by the CMA and local governments.
