This Category 5 Super Typhoon Is Aimed At American Soil — And It's Terrifying
A Typhoon Watch is now in effect for Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan as Typhoon Bavi undergoes rapid intensification east of Guam — forecast winds near 173 mph, gusts to 207 mph, and seas to 45 feet. Roughly 200,000 U.S. citizens are in the path of a storm that exploded from 60 mph to a projected Category 5 equivalent in barely two days, and it could become the strongest July typhoon ever to pass directly through the Mariana Islands. In this briefing: the 48-hour timeline, the model track split that decides which islands take the core, the ocean physics behind the explosion, and the observation blind spot that means Bavi's true strength is still an estimate.
