A powerful storm is slated to move over the Bering Sea this weekend, possibly becoming one of the most intense storms to ever impact the region.
The former Super Typhoon Nuri is forecast to track northward into the Bering Sea, located in between Alaska and Russia, on Friday, losing its tropical characteristics as it does so.
At this point, the system will undergo rapid intensification, producing howling winds as the central pressure plummets to near record levels.
Due to the massive size of the storm, impacts can be felt hundreds of miles away from the storm’s center through much of the weekend.
