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

* WHERE...Guam Coastal Waters 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...Tropical Storm 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 Saturday
night and lasting into at least Sunday night. Champi is expected
to strengthen further today and Saturday 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.

Internet connectivity at the time

Internet connectivity in United States dropped 41 hours after this event, and stayed disrupted for about 1 hour.

From 18 Oct 2026 00:00 UTC to 18 Oct 2026 01:00 UTC. Detected by active probing — networks that stopped answering.

Internet outages have many causes — damaged cables, power failures, network maintenance and deliberate shutdowns among them. IODA detects the loss of connectivity and does not attribute it to anything. This is shown because it happened at the same time, not because one caused the other.

Measured by IODA, Georgia Institute of Technology.
