[4] Development further continued as it traversed eastward and eight hours later, the JTWC upgraded the system to a tropical depression, being assigned the identifier 13W as it further became compact whilst its LLCC became slightly exposed due to shear.
[5][6] Despite the remaining wind shear impacting the system, a near-equatorial ridge to the south guided the depression to a more favorable environment that signified 13W's intensification.
[14] As it neared the coast of Shantou, its circulation became distinct; however, its convection remained strongest on the south side due to wind shear.
[19][20] Lupit neared the northern coast of Taiwan as a weak tropical storm, with a broad circulation center being located in radar imagery and its convection strengthening as a result of still-favorable environmental conditions.
[23] Huaning then quickly exited the PAR at 03:00 UTC (11:00 PHT) on August 7 before following another landfall between Taoyuan and Hsinchu on that morning, being the first tropical cyclone to do so in that area since reliable records began and the third to reach the western north of the country, as Nakri of 2002 did in Miaoli-Taichung and Talim in 2012, nearly on Miaoli.
[28] After 11:00 UTC on August 8 (20:00 JST), the JMA reported that Lupit made its first Japanese landfall near Makurazaki, Kagoshima as the system unraveled again due to land friction.
[29][30] It then followed by Lupit's 2nd and final landfall near Kure, Hiroshima after 20:00 UTC (05:00 JST) that day before emerging in the Sea of Japan on August 9 as a disorganized system.
[33] A warm Sea of Japan helped to maintain the system's intensity as a tropical storm; however, increasing wind shear from an upper-level trough continued to impact Lupit, causing its overall structure to decay.
By the night of that day, the JTWC issued its final warning on the storm, as they noted that the system started to undergo extratropical transition while entering the baroclinic zone.
[34][35] The Hong Kong Observatory and Macao Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau issued tropical cyclone warnings for their respective territories on August 4 due to the threat of strong winds and heavy rainfall.
[16] 25,000 individuals from nearby Fujian were forced to leave their homes as the storm neared the province, while 153 boats were called for shelter and 218 scenic spots and ports were closed.
[45] A reservoir in Luohu District, Shenzhen reported a rain accumulation of 109.6 mm (4.31 in) on August 5, while flooding reached until the chest of individuals on the area and cars being submerged, from numerous pictures showed on Weibo that day.
[46] The only fatality from China was the party branch secretary of a village in Xiapu County, being identified as Sun Limei, which she fell into a body of water while cleaning a silt on August 6.
[50] On August 8, Kaohsiung's Mingba Kelu Bridge collapsed as a result of heavy rains, trapping 501 individuals in 3 tribes from an isolated island in Taoyuan District.
[60] The Miaoli Station of Taiwan High Speed Rail was closed to the public due to the risk of landslides while a container ship sank on Budai Harbor as a result of rough waves; however, no one was killed as they were immediately rescued.
[63] A woman was reported to be injured when her car fell into a sinkhole on August 11 due to the heavy rains from Lupit in Taichung, although the system already moved away from the country at that time.
[64] Different pictures by the country's government showed crops and houses being submerged in floodwaters, soils being washed away by rivers, rough waves impacting the shores of Kaohsiung and roads being destroyed by continuous rains.
[69] Meanwhile, an indigenous female representative in Kaohsiung was reported to be swept away by a rising river; however, search operations were continuously halted by the poor conditions in the area.
[74] 61,000 individuals in Shimane Prefecture, including the Oki Islands lost power due to Lupit, while roads, trees, railways and approximately 80 houses in the area suffered damages.
