Here is the one that may be a strong typhoon if all aligns right and the best thing is that after it tracks close to the Mariana Islands it will move in open waters once a strong cyclone and it will be a beautiful one to track. Hurricane2022, Hayabusa, sasha_B, mrbagyo and others.

The Guam NWS has a long discussion and expect a lot of rain from this.

The tropical disturbance that is expected to approach the Marianas
has been designated Invest 98W by the JTWC. The system is located in
eastern Chuuk State and is expected to move west-northwest over the
coming days before turning northward towards the Marianas. We`ll
start the period with east-northeast winds gradually turning
northward and then westwards as the tropical disturbance approaches.
Model guidance continues to show 5 to 10 inches of rain across the
Marianas from Thursday through Sunday night, with locally higher
amounts greater than 12 inches possible. The rainfall forecast will
depend on the patch of the storm and whether or not it taps into the
monsoonal flow. Both the GFS and ECMWF show this happening leading to
copious of rainfall across the Marianas. Confidence is lower in the
potential strength for 98W.


.Hydrology...
A tropical disturbance, Joint Typhoon Warning Center`s (JTWC) Invest
98W is centered southeast of Guam near 9N154E. This invest is
expected to move toward the Marianas through the week as it slowly
develops. 98W is expected to bring heavy rainfall to the Marianas
Thursday evening through Sunday. Models differ on location and
strength of 98W as it moves through the Marianas, however, they do
agree that heavy rainfall is likely as early as Thursday, continuing
through the Weekend.

There remains the potential for Guam and the CNMI to see rainfall
amounts of 5 to 10 inches by Sunday. Ensemble means lie on the lower
end of this range between 5 to 8 inches, but 75th percentiles are
closer to 6 to 10 inches for the Marianas and the 90th percentile
shows the potential for over a foot of rain across Saipan and Tinian.
Deterministic guidance also shows some of these higher rainfall
totals, showing the potential for a higher end rainfall event
depending on the exact track and strength of Invest 98W and the
positioning of the monsoon trough.

Residents on the Marianas need to closely monitor this developing
situation as watches, advisories and warnings could be issued later.

If living near streams and rivers, prepare to move items away from
stream and river banks. Make sure storm drains nearby are not
clogged, especially if living in low-lying areas.

Hurricane models now running on 98W when it's still low chance, usually they run when an invest is given the medium chance, guess it's because they are threatening the Marianas, a US territory...

From the Guam NWS.

.Western Micronesia Update...
Invest 98W remains weak and poorly organized, now located near Chuuk
at around 8N152E. 98W is not kicking up much convection so far, so
decided to downgrade showers to scattered, becoming numerous locally
heavy showers in the afternoon, that is if 98W starts to develop
according to model guidance. Also nudged winds up to 10 to 20 kt
tonight, although this is also dependent on 98W`s development and
movement north of Chuuk. The other update was to add locally heavy
showers to Palau today. Satellite shows clusters of showers and
thunderstorms to the southeast and east of Palau waters with the
cloud tops shearing over the islands. Model guidance suggests that
this area of convergence may shift over the islands today, but kept
shower coverage at scattered (30-50%) with showers expected to be
heavy at times and gusts near heavier showers up to 20 kt.

The tropical disturbance that is expected to approach the Marianas
has been designated Invest 98W by the JTWC. The system is located in
eastern Chuuk State and is expected to move west-northwest over the
coming days before turning northward towards the Marianas. We`ll
start the period with east-northeast winds gradually turning
northward and then westwards as the tropical disturbance approaches.
Model guidance continues to show 5 to 10 inches of rain across the
Marianas from Thursday through Sunday night, with locally higher
amounts greater than 12 inches possible. The rainfall forecast will
depend on the patch of the storm and whether or not it taps into the
monsoonal flow. Both the GFS and ECMWF show this happening leading to
copious of rainfall across the Marianas. Confidence is lower in the
potential strength for 98W.

18z GFS is much weaker after consistently showing a strong typhoon for several days now. Could be a fluke run though if 0z is back to showing a stronger storm. Either way development appears to be slow to occur over the next couple days with the way it looks now.

Tropical Disturbance, Invest 98W, Approaching the Marianas
Wednesday, July 23, 2025, Valid at 7:00 AM ChST
FLASH FLOOD WATCH NOW IN EFFECT FOR GUAM, ROTA, TINIAN AND SAIPAN
TC POTENTIAL/HAZARDS:
A tropical disturbance, Invest 98W, continues its approach to the Mariana Islands. 98W remains a poorly organized disturbance, and was positioned overnight to be near 11N149E. Due to the structure of this disturbance, the current position is of low confidence and subject to some change today, as is typical with poorly organized disturbances. However, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center did upgrade the potential for development on Tuesday evening from LOW to MEDIUM. A rating of MEDIUM means that tropical cyclone development (intensification to a tropical depression) is likely, but expected to occur beyond 24 hours. Numerical forecast models indicate 98W will continue toward the Marianas, but with gradual development in the coming days, eventually forming a low-level circulation center (LLCC) in the vicinity of Guam or Rota. At this time, a LLCC is not observed at the surface. Intensification trends near the Marianas vary, and range from a passing tropical disturbance, to a tropical depression…or a tropical storm farther north into the CNMI. Significant uncertainty remains as to when any development will actually begin to occur.
GUAM & THE CNMI:
Despite the uncertainties surrounding the possible/eventual development of 98W, the time and distance between the Marianas and 98W is decreasing. Residents of the Marianas should plan for and expect periods of showers, thunderstorms, locally heavy rainfall the next several days. Winds will increase late tonight and into Thursday as 98W nears, becoming gusty. A Flash Flood Watch is now in effect for the Marianas for the possibility of significant rainfall.
In what could shape up to be a 2-part weather event, 98W will proceed toward the Marianas, in some form, likely heading northward into the CNMI possibly with some additional development. Following 98W, a monsoon surge could develop bringing a couple days of strong southwest winds and showers to the Marianas.
At the least, this will be a tent, canopy, tarp, trash bin weather event: secure those loose and vulnerable items, and other items vulnerable to gusty winds. Also, as conditions can and do change rapidly in the wet season and with passing tropical disturbances, residents across the islands should keep up to date with all the latest weather forecasts and information from the NWS Guam. While this does not appear to be a typhoon scenario for Guam, Rota, Tinian or Saipan, it remains a possibility that some islands could eventually deal with a passing tropical depression, or a tropical storm.

313 AM ChST Wed Jul 23 2025

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...Guam, Rota, Saipan and Tinian.

* WHEN...Through Friday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Low-water
crossings may be flooded.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A generally unsettled pattern caused by localized convergence
and nearby tropical disturbance Invest 98W southeast of the
Marianas, is likely to produce heavy showers and
thunderstorms to bring localized flash flooding risk to the
region for at least the next several days. As 98W continues
to consolidate and move closer to the Marianas, shower and
thunderstorm coverage will continue to increase, with
rainfall amounts of 6 to 10 inches possible through late
Friday afternoon.
- http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.

NEAR 11.5N 148.4E IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 12.9N 145.0E, APPROXIMATELY
34 NM SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF ANDERSEN AFB, GUAM. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE (MSI) IMAGERY DEPICTS A BROAD LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
(LLCC) WITH FLARING CONVECTION, AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE FROM THE
SOUTHERN QUADRANT WRAPPING AROUND THE LLCC NEAR GUAM. ENVIRONMENTAL
ANALYSIS REVEALS FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT WITH MODERATE VWS
(VERTICAL WIND SHEAR), WARM (30-31 C) SST (SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE) AND
GOOD EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW ALOFT. GLOBAL MODELS AGREE ON STEADY
DEVELOPMENT AND A NORTHWESTERN TRACK STEERING TOWARDS JAPAN WITHIN A 24-
36 HOUR PERIOD. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 18 TO
23 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1007 MB.
THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS HIGH.

Has become TD 12W according to Zoom Earth. Sometimes Zoom Earth will show the new forecast cone or newly upgraded storm before other sources do.
