  • May 22, 2012: Tropical Depression 03W, which would later became Tropical Storm Sanvu, brought tropical storm-force wind gusts and moderate rainfall to the Mariana Islands. Wind gusts topped at 48 mph (77 km/h) on Guam, while rainfall totaled to 4.65 inches (118.11 mm) on Tinian within a 48-hour period.[1]
  • October 16–19, 2013: As Typhoon Francisco developed to the east, a tropical storm warning was issued for Guam. Wind gusts up to 52 mph (83 km/h) were observed on the island. A peak rainfall total of 7.9 inches (200.66 mm) was measured in Inarajan. Some trees were downed by strong wind gusts, however, no major damage was reported.[2][3]
  • October 4–5, 2014: The eye of Typhoon Vongfong passed just north of Rota, with the eyewall passing over portions of the island based on radar observations. Roughly 70% of the island briefly lost electricity. On Guam, the highest wind gust 70 mph (112 km/h) was measured at Anderson Air Force Base. The northern tip of the island received 7 inches (177.8 mm) of precipitation during the typhoon, resulting in minor flooding. Downed trees and isolated power outages were observed on Guam.[4]
  • March 15–16, 2015: Tropical Storm Bavi threatened the Mariana Islands, however, unfavorable wind shear caused the storm to degrade in structure, passing just north of Guam late on March 15. On Saipan, a maximum wind gust of 72 mph (115 km/h) was observed with a rainfall total of 4.69 inches (119.12 mm) on neighboring Tinian.[5] At least a dozen homes were destroyed by the storm in Saipan. Crops on the Kagman commercial plot were ruined by heavy salt spray from nearby beaches brought over by Bavi's wind gusts.[6] Total damages from Bavi in the Mariana Islands were $150 thousand.[5]
Conditions at Anderson Air Force Base during Typhoon Dolphin
  • May 14–16, 2015: Typhoon Dolphin moved between Rota and Guam, producing the first typhoon-force winds of Guam since Typhoon Pongsona of 2002 and the first on Rota since Typhoon Chaba of 2004.[7] Maximum sustained winds on Guam reached 84 mph (135 km/h) with gusts up to 106 mph (170 km/h) at Anderson Air Force Base. The typhoon produced 12–14 inches (304.8–355.6 mm) of rainfall over the island. Guam Memorial Hospital sustained $1 million in flood damage. The island of Guam saw 40% of customers losing power, with more losing water, leaving $3 million in damage to utility services. A reported 7,000 banana trees were damaged by the typhoon. Many homes were affected on Rota.[8] A total of 390 houses were damaged, of which nine were destroyed, affecting 104 residents.[9] About three weeks after the typhoon on June 5, United States President Barack Obama approved a major disaster declaration for Guam,[10] total damage from Dolphin was $7.01 million.[8]
  • July 5, 2015: Tropical Storm Chan-hom dropped 16 inches (406.4 mm) of rainfall over Guam. A peak wind gust of 62 mph (99 km/h) was recorded on the island.[11]

Another two teens also sustained injuries from rough surf several days later on October 13.[15][16][17]
  • October 21, 2019: Typhoon Bualoi forces a typhoon warning for Saipan and Tinian. However, Bualoi only resulted in minimal impacts limited to rainstorms and large swells.[18]

2020s[edit]

  • June 21–22, 2021: Typhoon Champi prompts a tropical storm watch for Rota of the Northern Mariana Islands and a tropical storm warning for Guam.[21][22] Additional weather alerts were declared for other islands, including Saipan and Tinian.[23] The typhoon only resulted in power losses, which affected two schools on Tinian and villages in Guam.[24]
  • August 14–16, 2021: Tropical Storm Omais forces the issuance of tropical storm watches for Guam and Rota between August 14–15, all of which are cancelled by August 16 as the storm weakens.[25][26][27]
  • September 23, 2021: Tropical Storm Mindulle causes a tropical storm warning to be posted for Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan. Several roads and highways on Guam were inundated by floodwaters. Mindulle produced tropical storm-force gusts of 46 mph (74 km/h) at Andersen Air Force Base and roughly 4 inches (101.6 mm) of rainfall in Guam.[28]

  • May 24, 2023: In advance of Typhoon Mawar, typhoon warnings were issued for the island of Guam and Rota, with a typhoon watch for the islands of Tinian and Saipan. Mawar's eyewall passed over the northern part of Guam on May 24 at Category 4 intensity,[29] resulting in the issuance of an extreme wind warning.[30] Although Mawar was the worst storm to strike Guam in over 20 years, overall damage was limited. [31] However, two people were killed after being swept out to sea.[32] The Guam Memorial Hospital sustained $12 million (2023 USD) in damage costs,[33] including wall collapses, broken windows and shutters, a fire in the kitchen, and flooding.[34] Damage on the island was expected to surpass $1 billion.[29]
  • October 10, 2023: Typhoon Bolaven produced peak wind gusts of 68 mph (109 km/h) in Saipan. Rainfall peaked at 4 in (101.6 mm) in Agana, Guam.[35]
