Overview of Today's Typhoon Situation

Today is October 28, 2026. There is currently only one active typhoon in the Northwest Pacific and South China Sea, namely Typhoon No. 31, “IN-FA.” Real-time monitoring data show that after experiencing fluctuations in intensity recently, “IN-FA” has once again maintained super typhoon status. In the overall macroeconomic picture, typhoon activity this autumn has been exceptionally active. Both the number of typhoons generated and their peak intensities have attracted considerable attention. However, the currently active system is relatively far from China, and offshore waters are generally calm.

Dynamic Analysis of Active Typhoon “IN-FA”

According to the platform's real-time data, the center of this year's Typhoon No. 31, “IN-FA,” is currently located at 14.8°N, 160.4°E, with a minimum central pressure of 920 hPa and maximum wind speed near the center of 60 m/s (force 16), placing it at super typhoon level. It is currently moving generally westward at 22 km/h.

Regarding its future trend, official forecasts indicate that at 05:00 on November 2, the center of “IN-FA” will move to approximately 21.5°N, 139.9°E and will remain at super typhoon level. According to the CMA, “IN-FA” will have no direct impact on China's offshore waters in the future.

Public Focus on Weather Topics

Meteorological topics have recently attracted considerable public attention, mainly in the following areas. First, this year's typhoons have shown a “double high” in both the number generated and their intensity. According to meteorological statistical analysis, all five typhoons generated since the beginning of October reached super typhoon intensity at their peak, and the total number of typhoons this year is expected to set a new record since the 21st century. Second, there has been interest in the impact of the earlier typhoon “CHAMPI,” with data indicating that it caused more than NT$260 million in losses to agriculture in the Taiwan region of China. In addition, as cold air moves southward, the public is closely following the shift in weather conditions and localized precipitation in southern coastal areas such as Guangdong.

Meteorological Defense and Safety Reminders

Although “IN-FA” currently has no direct impact on China's offshore waters, autumn typhoon tracks are highly variable, and typhoons tend to be intense, so coastal areas should remain alert. Vessels engaged in offshore operations and ships in transit should closely monitor changes in wind and wave conditions and promptly avoid affected waters. Meanwhile, cold air has been active recently, with rainfall accompanying it in parts of southern China. The public should take precautions when traveling against the potential adverse effects of localized rain and strong winds on transportation.
