A dangerous super typhoon in the Pacific Ocean is barreling toward a group of remote U.S. islands.
Super Typhoon Sinlaku is expected to make landfall Tuesday in the Northern Mariana Islands and bring destructive winds, widespread heavy rain and flooding.
The U.S. territory of Guam where there are American military installations also could see damaging winds and is under a tropical storm warning.
The typhoon was producing sustained winds of 173 mph on Monday as it neared the islands of Rota, Tinian and Saipan.
The storm is expected to weaken slightly but should cross near the islands as a Category 4 or 5 typhoon.
