...A TYPHOON WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE MARIANAS...

.NEW INFORMATION...
None.

.AREAS AFFECTED...
This local statement provides important information and
recommended actions for people in Guam and the Northern Marianas.

.Watches/Warnings...
A Typhoon Watch continues for Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan in the
Mariana Islands.

A Typhoon Watch means that Typhoon conditions, including winds of 74
mph or greater, are possible within the next 48 hours somewhere
within the specified areas.

.STORM INFORMATION...
At 1 PM ChST...the center of Tropical Depression 29W was located
near latitude 10.8N...longitude 158.9E. This was about 970 miles
east of Guam. Storm motion was west-northwest, 285 degrees, at
13 mph. 29W is expected to make a turn toward the west over the next
couple of days. Storm intensity was 35 mph. 29W is expected to begin
to intensify Friday.

.SITUATION OVERVIEW...
It is vital that you do not focus on the exact forecast track. To
do so could result in bad decisions and place you or those you
are responsible for at greater risk. Tropical Depression 29W is
currently moving west-northwest, but is expected to make a turn
toward the west through this evening. It is too early to provide
exact wind and surge forecast values for specific locations. A
general concern should be for the possibility of at least widespread
damage somewhere within Guam and the Northern Marianas. A Flood
Watch is also likely for the Marianas.
