  • May 22, 2012: Tropical Depression 03W, which would later became Tropical Storm Sanvu, brought tropical storm-force wind gusts and moderate rainfall to the Mariana Islands. Wind gusts topped at 48 mph (77 km/h) on Guam, while rainfall totaled to 4.65 inches (118.11 mm) on Tinian within a 48-hour period. Falling tree limbs on wires resulted in $20,000 worth of damage in Guam.[1]
  • October 16–19, 2013: As Typhoon Francisco developed to the east of the Mariana Islands, a tropical storm watch was issued for Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan, which was later upgraded to a tropical storm warning for Guam. The typhoon raised sea levels roughly 5 feet (1.5 m) during its passage near Guam. Wind gusts up to 52 mph (83 km/h) were observed on the island. A peak rainfall total of 7.9 inches (200.66 mm) was measured in Inarajan. Some trees were downed by strong wind gusts, however, no major damage or casualties were reported on Guam.[2][3]
  • October 4–5, 2014: The eye of Typhoon Vongfong passes just north of Rota, with the eyewall passing over portions of the island based on radar observations. However, the Rota International Airport was closed and unable to record wind data. Roughly 70% of the island lost electricity, albeit briefly. On Guam, the highest wind gust 70 mph (112 km/h) was measured at Anderson Air Force Base. The northern tip of the island received 7 inches (177.8 mm) of precipitation during the typhoon, resulting in minor flooding. A total of 17 people in Yigo required rescue from flooding. Downed trees and isolated power outages were observed on Guam; the island's international airport had to cancel flights, and the USS George Washington had to exit Guam two days early due to the typhoon, resulting in losses for local businesses.[4]
  • March 15–16, 2015: Tropical Storm Bavi threatened the Mariana Islands, however, unfavorable wind shear caused the storm to degrade in structure, passing just north of Guam late on March 15. A gauge at Apra Harbor recorded sustained winds of 46 mph (74 km/h) at 19:36 ChSt and a gust up to 59 mph (94 km/h) at 19:54 ChSt. On Saipan, a maximum wind gust of 72 mph (115 km/h) was observed with a rainfall total of 4.69 inches (119.12 mm) on neighboring Tinian. Sporadic power outages and light tree damage was reported in Guam.[5] At least a dozen homes were destroyed by the storm in Saipan; blackouts that lasted several hours were observed. Crops on the Kagman commercial plot were ruined by heavy salt spray from nearby beaches brought over by Bavi's wind gusts.[6] Total damages from Bavi in the Mariana Islands were $150 thousand.[5]
Conditions at Anderson Air Force Base during Typhoon Dolphin
  • May 14–16, 2015: Typhoon Dolphin moved between Rota and Guam, producing the first typhoon-force winds of Guam since Typhoon Pongsona of 2002 and the first on Rota since Typhoon Chaba of 2004.[7] Maximum sustained winds on Guam reached 84 mph (135 km/h) with gusts up to 106 mph (170 km/h) at Anderson Air Force Base. A minimum barometric pressure of 972.1 mb (28.7 inHg) was also recorded at the base. The typhoon produced 12–14 inches (304.8–355.6 mm) of rainfall over the island. Brief flooding was observed in areas with poor drainage including Guam Memorial Hospital, which sustained $1 million in water damage. The electrical grid of Guam was significant disrupted by the typhoon which resulted in 40% of customers losing power. Another 3,300 customers experienced disruptions to water services, leaving $3 million in damage to utility services on the island. Significant crop damage was observed, a reported 7,000 banana trees were damaged by the typhoon's southern eyewall. Many homes were either damage or destroyed on Rota, several trees and power lines were downed.[8] A total of 390 houses were damaged, of which nine were destroyed, affecting 104 residents.[9] About three weeks after the typhoon on June 5, United States President Barack Obama approved a major disaster declaration for Guam,[10] total damage from Dolphin was $7.01 million.[8]
  • July 5, 2015: Tropical Storm Chan-hom dropped 16 inches (406.4 mm) of rainfall over Guam. A peak wind gust of 62 mph (99 km/h) was recorded on the island.[11]

  • October 7, 2019: Ahead of Typhoon Hagibis a typhoon warning was posted for Saipan, Tinian, Alamagan and Pagan; a tropical storm warning was issued for the remainder of the main Mariana Islands.[14] A teen was injured after falling off a 100-foot (30.48 m) cliff in Tamuning during rough surf conditions caused by Hagibis, although, it was unclear whether it was storm-related. Another two teens also sustained injuries from rough surf caused by Hagibis' influence several days later on October 13. United States President Donald Trump signed a disaster declaration for the Mariana Islands, request by Governor Arnold Palacios, on October 8.[15][16][17]
  • October 21, 2019: Typhoon Bualoi forces a typhoon warning for Saipan and Tinian, and a tropical storm warning for Agrihan, Pagan and Alamagan. However, Bualoi only resulted in minimal impacts limited to rainstorms and large swells.[18]

  • August 14–16, 2021: Tropical Storm Omais forces the issuance of tropical storm watches for Guam and Rota between August 14–15, all of which are cancelled by August 16 as the storm weakens.[25][26][27]
  • September 23, 2021: Tropical Storm Mindulle causes a tropical storm warning to be posted for Guam, Rota, Tinian, and Saipan. Several roads and highways on Guam were inundated by floodwaters. Mindulle produced tropical storm-force gusts of 46 mph (74 km/h) at Andersen Air Force Base and roughly 4 inches (101.6 mm) of rainfall in Guam.[28]
