Super Typhoon Bavi is moving away from the Mariana Islands as some flights begin resuming and utility restoration efforts continue on Guam.
The National Weather Service issued its final update on Bavi Monday night as the storm moved west at 13 mph with maximum sustained winds of 165 mph.
Typhoon-force winds extended up to 70 miles from the center, while tropical storm-force winds extended as far as 320 miles.
Bavi is expected to maintain its intensity for another day or two before beginning a gradual weakening trend.
Although the storm is leaving the region, a High Surf Warning and Coastal Flood Warning remain in effect because of dangerous sea and surf conditions, coastal inundation and potentially deadly rip currents.
The Guam Waterworks Authority said 67 of the 99 wells that were operating before the storm are now online and running on generator power.
Another 28 wells remain offline, while the status of four others is still being verified.
The Guam International Airport Authority also reported that some flights are beginning to resume. Passengers are being advised to check directly with their airline for current flight information before traveling to the airport.
Guam remains in Condition of Readiness 1, and residents are still being told to remain indoors and off the roads until COR 4 is announced.
