Typhoon approaching Taiwan

***Update: 11 November, 2025***
In response to the approaching Typhoon Fung-wong, a typhoon warning was issued in Taiwan at 05:30 hours local time today (11 November).

According to the latest data, Typhoon No. 26 has weakened slightly in the past three hours, and its storm circle has shrunk somewhat. Its center is currently located southwest of Eluanbi, moving north-northeast and then northeast.

The storm circle is gradually entering the southern waters of Taiwan, posing a threat to Tainan, Kaohsiung, Pingtung, Taitung, and the Hengchun Peninsula. It is expected that the typhoon's intensity will continue to weaken, and the storm circle will also shrink.

Vessels navigating or operating in the Taiwan Strait, southeastern waters of Taiwan, the Bashi Channel, and waters near Dongsha Island should be on high alert.

***Update: 10 November, 2025***
Typhoon Fung-wong's is currently 580 km south of Eluanbi, Taiwan, moving northwestward then northward towards the Taiwan Strait, before turning northeastward and passing through Taiwan.

The Keelung North Coast, Greater Taipei, eastern Taiwan, and the Hengchun Peninsula are on alert for heavy rain and torrential rain, especially in the northeast, east, and Greater Taipei areas, where there is a chance of localized torrential rain or worse.

On Wednesday, as the typhoon approaches, central and southern Taiwan will also experience heavy rain or localized torrential rain. On Thursday, the typhoon will weaken and gradually move away, with rainfall decreasing in other areas except for localized heavy rain in the north.

Because the typhoon's path and intensity as it turns northward and approaches Taiwan remain uncertain, the specific extent and area of ​​impact will depend on the subsequent typhoon path and intensity. A sea warning is expected to be issued this afternoon, and a land warning is expected to be issued tomorrow morning.

All ports are currently operating normally. Vessels stranded in port must strengthen their moorings to avoid mooring breaks due to strong winds.

Mailiao Port: According to the port announcement, starting at 1800 hours local time today (10 November), the port will enter Level 2 typhoon preparedness, suspend all inbound vessels and allow only outbound vessels. From 1200 hours tomorrow (11 November), the port will enter Level 1 typhoon preparedness, and vessels in port will be moved out of the harbor to seek shelter from the storm. This process is scheduled to be completed before 1800 hours. Port operations are expected to resume on 13 November, subject to weather conditions.

Kaohsiung Port: Vessels in the anchorage area are scheduled to be cleared after the typhoon warning is issued.
