‘Unprecedented’ Super Typhoon blasting US Pacific islands with 289 km/h winds
The Earth’s strongest storm this year is striking US territories in the western Pacific Ocean.
A strengthening Super Typhoon Yutu, with sustained winds of 289 km/h, is on a trek through the Northern Mariana Islands.
The storm is roaring across the islands of Saipan and Tinian, both US territories, and will become among the most intense storms – if not the most – on record to impact US soil.
