Mentioned 10,000 troops in Guam but not its 170,000 residents who are US citizens. Wow.

[@antb9521]

Praying for all people of Guam!!

Keep Safe all those in Guam.

[@dennybranham3242]

Father, I ask that you wrap your arms around our Brother’s and Sister’s in Guam this morning.. Please talk to them and bring guidance into their lives with your Word.. Father, I ask that you please watch over and protect them while this storm passes.. In Jesus name, I pray.. Amen!!!

Maybe what is more troubling is these news people do not seem to know that Guam is not an American military base in a foreign country. It is a American territory, full of Americans.

[@builderpj]

Ya, we have 999 bases in other countries, no exaggeration.

[@mojarjoe6836]

It's not an island full of Americans, know your demographics, it's an island of 40% Chamorros , 25% Filipino , 29% Pacific islanders only 6% are white. Basically no American . Thank you

[@theclockworkpineapple]

@@mojarjoe6836 I live in Guam. Those demographics are Americans. People born in Guam are American. You can be Chamorro, Pacific Islander or Filipino and still be American.

Its nowhere near strongest. This was a CAT 4. Ive been through worse here.

[@bearowen5480]

I was based on Guam for about ten years when i was flying for Continental Airlines. In December 1997, just before Christmas, Super Typhoon Paka hit dead center on the island. My wife and I had Christmas vacation, so we left on one of the last flights out to Honolulu before Paka hit. Paka has been rated as the worst typhoon to hit Guam since records have been kept. It packed estimated wind gusts of 245 mph, had that been official, the highest wind gusts on the surface of the earth in recorded history! I used the term "estimated" because the wind destroyed all the wind velocity recording devices (annemometers) on the island which had only been built for winds up to 220 which is what they recorded before they blew away! The storms in the western Pacific normally move from northeast to southwest, propelled by the trade winds at about 10 to 15 mph. But Paka for some reason stalled right over the island for 12 hours, battering everything with 200+ mph winds. When I returned after the holidays, the island had been devastated. There were overturned cars everywhere. Roofs had been ripped off buildings and residences. The power lines were down everywhere. Most of the auxiliary generators to power the well pumps that draw water up from the island's acquifers failed. Most of Guam was without central water and electrical power for two to three months. We got through it, but it wasnt a picnic. The island had been denuded of foliage. There was barely a leaf on a tree or vine to be seen anywhere. Apartment buildings near my condo that I had never seen before were suddenly revealed when all the jungle plants lost their leaves, just like skinny dippers caught out at low tide! God bless the National Guard units from Guam, Hawaii and the West Coast that flew out to help us recover. They directed traffic, provided power for emergency services, restrung power cables, and set up water tankers at major intersections for drinking, sanitation, and some bathing. I pity the peope of Guam for what they're enduring right now. Ive been through it, so I know. They are good and resilient people, loyal Americans all. Our hearts are with them as they go about reconstructing the Territory from Mawar's devastation.

Yep, it is revollting as heck to hear them constantly make obvious the fact that as a news outlet they would have zero interest in covering a massive deadly storm if the trajectory only threated foreigners. The suffering of "others" just doesn't count as news.

[@Still-Learning]

Hafa A'dai... The island can take a typhoon, they happen as the island is located in what's called typhoon alley in the SE Pacific. The elders and the long time residents know how to survive a storm. I've experienced three typhoons while on the island. Power will go out which will impact movement of fresh water from the Fena Resevoir to the residents. This happens on sunny days as well as Guam often has power outages due to animals shorting power lines, autos contacting and breaking power poles, and increased electrical load demand during peak hours, to name a few. The people from.the middle of Nebraska who will experience a power outage for the first time will be OK as barracks and housing is built to withstand typhoons from walls to windows. The bases and the hospitals have generators that will be spun up immediately after the power goes out...the galleies will be open to feed and the hospitals will continue care of their patients. Traffic will be a challenge and the antagonists will be the military personnel who may not have experience driving in uncontrolled conditions. Overall, they'll be OK including the fragile psyches of the "world's most powerful military members." Hafa...
