Absolutely wild today at Cape Disappointment as Kelvin waves has raised the high tide line by over a foot above forecast along the WA coast! Thus creating the perfect set up for sneaker waves and much higher impact along the beaches! These logs weigh thousands of lbs. #wawx

You very well could be looking at the world’s strongest storm of 2026. In one of the most ridiculous underestimates of the decade, Typhoon Champi is still officially listed as a C4 despite a satellite presentation that suggests 180+ MPH winds. This Super El Niño will not stop.

While the major destructive winds just missed Guam a few miles to the south of the island… there was still damage across the island. #guam #champi #Typhoon
