Governor Lou Leon Guerrero and Lt. Governor Josh Tenorio, along with partners from the Department of Public Works (DPW), the Mayor’s Council of Guam (MCOG), and other Government of Guam agencies, conducted an initial windshield assessment this morning at first light when it was safe to do so.
At 6:00 a.m. today, July 7, Joint Region Marianas and its installations entered an active recovery phase, allowing emergency responders and assessment teams to evaluate damage, identify hazards, and begin restoration efforts.
The National Weather Service, Weather Forecast Office Guam, has canceled the typhoon warning for Guam.
COR 4
Governor Leon Guerrero anticipates placing Guam in Condition of Readiness (COR) 4 at 10:00 a.m. today, July 7, 2026. At COR 4, the island resumes normal operations.
Although the Government of Guam is transitioning to COR 4, recovery operations continue aboard Joint Region Marianas installations. Damage assessments remain underway, and installation facilities and services will reopen only after commanders determine they are safe to resume normal operations.
Joint Task Force - Micronesia, as the Department of War’s supported command for Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA) in the region, is actively coordinating with federal, territorial, and local partners to ensure a rapid and effective response if requested.
Today, July 7, only essential GovGuam personnel are required to report to work. All other employees may report on a case-by-case basis. Check in with your supervisor for immediate guidance. The Government of Guam will reopen for business tomorrow, Wednesday, July 8.
