Former western North Pacific Ocean typhoon Champi weakened and transitioned into an extra-tropical cyclone and moved east across the Pacific. On October 26, satellite imagery showed the extra-tropical cyclone affecting Alaska, where it was bringing rain, gusty winds and warmer than normal temperatures. NOAA's GOES-West satellite and NASA's RapidScat instrument captured the powerful former typhoon near Alaska.
