'Very dangerous' super typhoon nears US Pacific islands

A 'very dangerous' super typhoon named Bavi is approaching the U.S. Pacific territories of Guam and the Northern Marianas, prompting residents to prepare for potential catastrophic damage. The National Weather Service warned of tropical storm-force winds starting Sunday and 'catastrophic' damage near the typhoon's center, with waves reaching up to 35 feet. Residents have evacuated or secured their homes, while some businesses report financial strain due to the storm. While some locals express fear, others, like surfers, find opportunities in the extreme weather conditions. Recent typhoons in the region have caused significant disruptions, including power outages and infrastructure damage.
