Super Typhoon Champi, Strongest Storm of 2026, Approaches Taiwan and Eastern ChinaPreviousNext

Super Typhoon Champi, the strongest tropical cyclone of 2026 with peak winds of 296 km/h, is moving across the western Pacific Ocean. It recently passed near Guam, causing damage and power outages, and is forecast to bring heavy rain and strong winds to Taiwan and eastern China. Champi intensified due to warm sea temperatures and favorable atmospheric conditions. Emergency preparations have been made in affected regions, with ongoing assessments of damage in Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands.
