Typhoon Throws Guam into Chaos, Leaves Thousands Without Basic Services

Typhoon Mawar slammed into Guam with 140 mph winds, equal to a Category 4 hurricane, on May 24.
Across the island, thousands of people are still without power, water, and cell service more than a week later.
There were no reported deaths, but restoring utilities to some areas could take weeks.
The President declared a major disaster, allowing residents to seek aid.
Guam is accustomed to powerful typhoons, though the last storm of this magnitude hit in 2002 and caused over $700 million in damage.
