This map draws the contiguous United States, and Northern Mariana Islands is beyond it. What is in force there is listed under “In force in this area”.

Agency warning geometry · no observed imagery displayed
North ↑

Interactive imagery loads separately. Missing radar does not remove warnings or imply clear weather.

Alert outlines: NOAA/NWS; cell points/observed segments: IEM/NEXRAD. A warning polygon is not a tornado footprint.

Lightning activity — GOES GLM

Total lightning, including in-cloud activity. Not ground-strike locations or a safe-to-go-outside signal.

Cached lightning observations have not loaded. An empty map is not zero lightning.

NOAA/NWS/NOHRSC’s original picture and legend. No station or address value is inferred.

NOHRSC footprint times are metadata; pixel analysis time is not independently verified. Snow-depth pixels have previously differed from the footprint time. This is modeled/assimilated snow analysis, not a measurement at a place. Unshaded and no-data areas do not establish zero snow.

    Prepare for the passage of a typhoon Sunday morning. Secure all vessels. Conditions are expected to be catastrophic for small craft, and extremely dangerous for any vessels of larger size. As Tropical Storm Champi approaches, stay in safe harbor.

    Typhoon Warning issued October 17 at 11:12AM ChST by NWS Tiyan GU

    * WHAT....Typhoon conditions, including winds of 64 knots or more
are expected.

* WHERE...Guam and Rota Coastal Waters.

* WHEN...Onset of damaging winds beginning Saturday night. Onset of
destructive winds Sunday morning. Damaging winds will continue into
at least Sunday night, possibly longer if conditions warrant.

* IMPACTS...Destructive winds will produce dangerous seas that
could damage, capsize or sink vessels, along with drastically
reducing visibilities in heavy rain.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Typhoon Champi (29W) continues to move quickly
toward the Marianas. The exact path of 29W remains subject to
change. However, guidance supports a passage through Guam coastal
waters, with damaging winds moving in late tonight and lasting
into at least Sunday night. Champi is expected to strengthen
further today as it approaches, then move through the region as a
typhoon Sunday morning. Seas will quickly rise, with significant
sea heights reaching as high as 35 feet during closest passage of
Champi. Dangerous sea conditions may continue into Monday.
    Prepare for the passage of a
typhoon Sunday morning. Secure all vessels. Conditions are expected
to be catastrophic for small craft, and extremely dangerous for any
vessels of larger size. As Tropical Storm Champi approaches, stay in
safe harbor.
