Noul, the 12th typhoon of the year, is the first typhoon to make landfall in Guangdong this year. So far, it is also the strongest typhoon to hit China this year and the most powerful to strike areas east of the Pearl River Estuary in the past decade.
台风红霞是 2026 年第 12 号台风，也是今年首个登陆广东的台风。该台风为今年登陆我国强度最高的台风，同时是近十年来侵袭珠江口以东区域最强台风。
The typhoon battered the cities of Huizhou, Shanwei and Shenzhen in eastern Guangdong with strong gales and heavy downpours, damaging infrastructure and causing widespread economic losses.

Ye Menglong, a meteorological analyst with Weather China, said unusually high sea surface temperatures in the South China Sea fueled Noul's rapid intensification before landfall, allowing it to strike Guangdong at severe typhoon strength. However, he warned that landfall does not mean the danger has passed.
中国天气网气象分析师叶梦龙分析，南海海域海面温度异常偏高，促使台风红霞登陆前快速增强，以强台风级别登陆广东。他同时警示，台风登陆并不代表风险解除。
"Combined with monsoon moisture transport, coastal areas in eastern Guangdong will continue to be battered by torrential rain, with parts of Heyuan, Meizhou, Chaozhou, Jieyang, Shanwei and Huizhou expected to experience extreme rainfall in the coming days," Ye said.
