Storms and Floods

Tropical Storms

In the Western Pacific:

Francisco has strengthened into a super typhoon (winds of at least 150 mph) over the western Pacific several hundred miles northwest of Guam. Environmental conditions will continue to support a strong typhoon through the weekend. Thereafter, cooler ocean waters and increasing winds aloft should begin to weaken Francisco as it moves toward southern Japan by the early to middle part next week.
