Green notification for tropical cyclone PEILOU-26. Population affected by Category 1 (120 km/h) wind speeds or higher is 0 (0.874 million in Tropical Storm)

Summary

Low-confidence signal — single-source GDACS detection with no independent news corroboration. Tropical Depression KUJIRA-26 was active in the Northwest Pacific on 04 August 2026, affecting the Philippines with maximum sustained winds of 65 km/h. The system is not projected to expose any population to Category 1 hurricane-force winds, though an estimated 0.874 million people are within the tropical-storm wind field.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. If the depression intensifies or stalls over the archipelago, localized disruptions to domestic logistics could emerge, but no specific supply chain impacts can be confirmed at this stage.

Watch points

• Monitor whether KUJIRA-26 intensifies into a named tropical storm or typhoon, which would widen the wind footprint and increase the population and infrastructure at risk.
• Watch for any official warnings from PAGASA or port authority advisories that could signal temporary closures of regional maritime routes in the Philippine archipelago.
