Traders are weighing an above-average 2026 Western Pacific typhoon season, with official Chinese forecasts calling for 24–26 named storms overall and 7–9 landfalls in China, driven by El Niño-enhanced activity that has already produced multiple strikes including Maysak in Hainan, Bavi and Dolphin in Zhejiang, and Noul in Guangdong by mid-August. With 16 named storms formed by early August and an exceptionally active July–August period featuring stronger-than-normal systems, market odds cluster tightly around 7 or 8 landfalls because remaining peak-season formation and steering patterns—governed by the subtropical ridge position and monsoon trough—still carry substantial uncertainty in track models. Historical analogs and National Climate Center guidance support elevated risk through September, yet late-season shifts in steering or rapid weakening over land could easily push totals toward 6 or above 8.

All landfalling tropical cyclones listed by the CMA on that page count toward the total, regardless of their intensity category at landfall (tropical depression, tropical storm, severe tropical storm, typhoon, severe typhoon, or super typhoon). What constitutes a landfall in China (including which mainland and island locations qualify) is determined solely by the CMA's records on that page. Each tropical cyclone is counted once toward the total, regardless of how many separate times it makes landfall.
One bracket will resolve "Yes" and all others "No".
If the CMA "Landfalling TCs" page is inaccessible or the 2026 Best Track Dataset has not been updated by June 30, 2027, resolution will instead be based on the number of tropical cyclones reported by China as making landfall for the 2026 season - counted on the same all-intensity basis - in the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee Annual Session final report for the 2026 season (https://www.typhooncommittee.org).
