"Super Typhoon Yutu, tied for the strongest storm anywhere in the world in 2018, slammed into the U.S. Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands on Thursday, with weather agencies predicting extreme destruction.
The storm, with sustained winds of 180 mph, was set to create “devastating damage” in the Pacific islands east of the Philippines, the National Weather Service in Guam said.
