A tropical depression has formed in the Pacific Ocean, in the Federated States of Micronesia. System 26W is currently located near position 4.6N 155.7E, this being 70 miles northeast of Nukuoro; 145 miles southwest of Sapwuafik / Ngatik; 135 miles eastsoutheast of Lukunor; 235 miles southwest of Pohnpei; 260 miles southeast of Losap and 330 miles southeast of Weno, Chuuk.
The system will intensify to typhoon strength, reaching 90 knots (105 mph) by the time it reaches Yap.
If those names mean nothing to you, have a look on the warning pages of NWS Guam or consult an atlas. I had to too.
