Emergency posture & shelters: Guam placed the territory and military bases in COR 1/TCCOR 1 at noon, urging residents to stay indoors and seek shelter now; CNMI leaders are issuing Typhoon Condition I/Tropical Storm Condition I and opening limited shelters on Saipan, Tinian, and Rota. Port shutdowns: The U.S. Coast Guard set Port Heavy Weather Condition Yankee for Guam and the Marianas, closing ports to inbound traffic and ordering larger vessels to depart ahead of worsening conditions. Power readiness: Guam Power Authority crews returning from Saipan ahead of Bavi aim to keep the utility fully staffed for storm damage response after Sinlaku recovery work. Pineapple trade: Separate from the storm news, the Philippines’ Bureau of Plant Industry says it expects U.S. ports to open for fresh pineapple exports this year, expanding beyond current limited entry points that include Guam and the CNMI. Tourism hit: Guam’s visitors count showed about 850 arrivals ahead of Bavi, while flight cancellations and emergency measures disrupt travel plans.
