US: Super Typhoon Sinlaku Barrels Toward Northern Mariana Islands and Guam 4

Super Typhoon Sinlaku, the strongest tropical cyclone on Earth so far in 2026, has been barreling toward the Northern Mariana Islands and Guam in the Pacific Ocean, with the National Weather Service warning of potentially "devastating damage." As of Monday, April 13, Sinlaku carried sustained winds of 175 mph — equivalent to a Category 5 hurricane — with typhoon warnings in effect for Saipan, Tinian and Rota, as typhoon conditions were expected by Tuesday. An island-wide power outage hit the Northern Mariana Islands, while flight cancellations were also reported amid the worsening weather.
