WEATHER DISTURBANCES

The Different Weather System in the Philippines and The Changes in Weather Before, During and After the Typhoon.
1. CYCLONE is a large and violent whirlwinds observed in different parts of the Earth. Tropical areas such as the Philippines used the term
tropical cyclones. These cyclones bring violent wind and thunderstorms to the affected areas. Cyclones are categorized based on wind speed.
These are Tropical depression (61 kph), Tropical storm (62-88 kph), Severe tropical storm (87-117 kph) and Typhoon (118 kph). Because of
the effects of typhoon Yolanda, a new category super typhoon (200 kph) was coined. Cyclones are born over bodies of water and dies over
landmasses.
2. BREEZE are the winds which blow onto the shore from the sea during daytime and away from the shore during nighttime. Breeze can be
classified into 2, sea breeze that is during day time and land breeze during night time. Sea breeze happens at daytime, warm air rises and
cooler air above the sea moves towards land. On the other hand, land breeze are the winds which blow onto the shore from the sea during
daytime and away from the shore during night time.
3. MONSOON is a breeze in a larger scale. Monsoon winds are stronger than ordinary breeze as they are formed by high temperatures in
coastal areas.
Hanging Amihan is the Filipino term for northeast monsoon. It brings cold air in Oct to Feb. Hanging Habagat is the Filipino term for
southwest monsoon. It causes rains and storms in May to Sep.
4. ITCZ Intertropical Convergence Zone. It is the group of clouds which bring weak to moderate rains and few thunderstorms. It forms due to
the clashing winds coming from the Northern and Southern Hemisphere. ITCZ moves north in the Northern Hemisphere during summer and
south during the cold season. ITCZ is responsible for the wet and dry seasons in countries near the equator.

BEFORE A TYPHOON DURING A TYPHOON AFTER A TYPHOON

• There are formations of dark clouds.
• Air is colder and dry.
• Reddish clouds at sunrise and sunset.
• Humidity is high.
• Strong winds and heavy rains. • Speed of wind decreases.
• Sky is cloudy. • Sun is starting to shine.
• Big waves in the sea. • Sky is clear.
• Surging of winds in counterclockwise • Little rain but not as much as during
direction. typhoon.
• Environment are flooded
