Guam is now in Condition of Readiness 2 for tropical storm level winds. According to the latest article in the Pacific Daily News this means that “tropical storm force winds are anticipated within 24 hours.” We are also under a typhoon watch which means that typhoon force winds (75 mph) are possible. What I am hearing seems likely is that we will see 40 mph winds some time this afternoon and then 60-65 mph winds tonight or in the very early Monday morning hours. My flight to Chuuk leaves at 8.20 am on Monday. It will be interesting to see what happens there.
At PIU we are playing it safe and preparing the campus for a possible typhoon. The boys are sheltered in the concrete roofed dorm. The ladies will take refuge with the PIU student life staff – sounds like a big slumber party. Sadly, all PIU Days activities, and all other school activities, are cancelled for Sunday. We will let people know as soon as we can what we will be doing for Monday activities.
Stay Safe!
