Tropical Storm in MARSHALL ISLANDS, GUAM
From 11-MAR-15 15:00:00 to 13-MAR-15 00:00:00 (GST10)
Property damage: 2.00M
Crop damage: 100.00K

On the night of the 9th of March, scatterometer data indicated a circulation south of Majuro near 4N172E. By the afternoon of the 11th it had moved to about 80 miles south of Majuro. By that night the circulation increased it's distance from Majuro and gained enough strength to become Tropical Depression 03W.
The pressure gradient between the Tropical Depression and an area of high pressure to the north generated higher winds (25 to 35 kts) across Eastern Micronesia.
According to WSO Majuro, Ujae, an atoll about 80 miles west of Kwajalein, got quite a bit of wind.  It was reported that there was damage to breadfruit trees and a few houses were knocked down. The highest sustained wind speed on Majuro was 26 mph with a gust to 35 mph. By the morning of the 12th, the depression being located 115 miles south-southwest of Kwajalein Atoll gained more strength to become Tropical Storm Bavi. Kwajalein reported small tree damage on the 12th. The highest sustained wind observed on Kwajalein was 36 mph with a gust to 47 mph. The damage across Kwajalein amounted to over $1 million. It was reported that roofs were destroyed on four buildings, and some old steel structures were made too dangerous to use. There was also some coastal flooding and considerable wind damage on Ebeye, an islet 1-2 miles north of the Army Base, and the location where the local national population that works at the Army Base lives.  There were no monetary estimates of the damages there.
High seas and winds associated with Tropical Storm Bavi possibly claimed a fishing vessel. An 83-foot fishing vessel, the Clearwater 02, was reported overdue. The ship reportedly went missing with nine people aboard while en route to Majuro for offload on the 12th. Clearwater 02 is a Federated States of Micronesia-flagged vessel with one Marshallese and eight Chinese nationals aboard. The ship was fairly new, being built in 2001. A Coast Guard aircraft searched 49,837 square miles totaling 44 search hours. Ten good Samaritan vessels also assisted in search efforts. A Navy P-3 Orion airplane from U.S. Navy 7th Fleet searched Thursday (11th) and Friday(12th)
covering an additional 8,747 square miles. Good Samaritan vessels recovered 34 fishing floats labeled ���CW02��� 224 miles east of Majuro. Two life rings marked ���Clearwater 02��� were located by one of the fishing vessels searching
114 miles southeast of Kwajalein on Tuesday (17th) and Friday (20th). Debris from the vessel was sighted in the vicinity of Ailinglaplap and Namu atolls, an area directly in the westerly track of Bavi.

Property damage: 50.00K
Crop damage: 0.00K

After leaving eastern Micronesia, Tropical Storm Bavi continued to travel west and eventually threatened the Marianas. Upper-level wind shear caused the storm to decouple resulting in the low-level circulation passing across Guam on the night of the 15th.
The highest wind speed on Guam , both sustained and gust was reported at the
Apra Harbor Tide Gage. On the night of the 15th, the gauge recorded a NNW wind of 46 mph at 1936 ChST and a gust to 59 mph at 1954 ChST. The lowest Sea Level Pressure recorded was 995.8 hPa at 2115 ChST.
Tropical Storm Bavi caused sporadic power outages and minor tree damage on Guam.

Tropical Storm in ROTA, GUAM

Tropical Storm Bavi continued to travel west and eventually threatened the Marianas.
Upper-level wind shear caused the storm to decouple resulting in the low-level circulation passing across Guam on the night of the 15th.
On Rota, the highest sustained winds were recorded at the airport with a north wind of 35 mph being observed at 1752 ChST.

Tropical Storm Bavi continued to travel west and eventually threatened the Marianas.
Upper-level wind shear caused the storm to decouple resulting in the low-level circulation passing across Guam on the night of the 15th. A band of showers associated with the system moved far to the north over Tinian and Saipan.
Tropical Storm Bavi caused sporadic power outages and minor tree damage on  Tinian and Saipan.
The rain band that moved across Tinian and Saipan on the 15th, combined with a pressure gradient between Bavi and high pressure to the north of the rain band, generated high winds across these islands.
On Tinian the highest sustained wind was 66 mph at 1650 ChST and the highest gust observed was 69 mph at 1630 ChST. The lowest Sea Level Pressure recorded at an automated weather observing station was 997.3 hPa. The same automated weather observing station recorded 4.69 inches of rain from the 15th through the 16th.
On Saipan the highest sustained wind speed and gust was recorded at the airport on the 15th. The maximum sustained wind was 46 mph at 1734 ChST and the highest gust was 72 mph observed at 1604 ChST. Rainfall for The 15th at the airport was 3.03 inches while 3.69 inches was reported at Capital Hill.
