By Jeff Marchesseault

GUAM - Tropical Storm Nida traveled 100 miles closer to Guam within the five-hour period between 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Chamorro Standard Time. But no watch or warning has been issued for Guam.

According to the National Weather Service, as of 1:00 p.m. Chamorro Standard Time, a Tropical Storm Watch was in effect for Fais and Ulithi, and a Tropical Storm Warning was in effect for Faraulep.

A Tropical Storm Warning means Tropical Storm-force winds between 39 and 73 MPH are occurring or expected to occur within the next 12 hours. A Tropical Storm Watch means Tropical Storm conditions are possible within 24 to 48 hours.

At 1:00 p.m. Chamorro Standard Time, the center of Tropical Storm Nida was near 8.7 degrees North Latitude and 145.1 degrees East Longitude.

This is about:

40 miles East of Faraulep;

120 miles Northeast of Woleai;

330 miles South of Guam;

380 miles East-Southeast of Ulithi;

320 miles East-Southeast of Fais; and

480 miles East of Yap.

Tropical Storm Nida has been moving West toward the island of Faraulep at around 9 MPH. It is expected to move West-Northwest during the next 24 hours.
