Climate and Weather-Related Hazards
NATURAL HAZARD - is defined as a natural process or event potentially
damaging that result in loss of life or injury, loss of property, socio-economic
destruction or environmental degradation.
CLIMATE- AND WEATHER-RELATED HAZARDS, refer to the direct and indirect
effects of observed changes in the frequencies and occurrences of extreme
weather/climate events (such as tropical cyclones, droughts, and El Niño and La Niña
events).

Interpret Different Hydro-

Meteorological Hazard Maps

Natural Hazard is an extreme event that

occurs naturally and causes harm to humans and
things that we care about, that hazard may
categorized as natural and anthropogenic hazards.
Climate and weather-related hazards, such as
typhoons and droughts, as well as earthquakes,
volcanic eruptions and tsunamis, ARE NATURAL
HAZARDS while deforestation, mining and climate
change is called MAN-MADE, HAZARDS.

Rainfall in the Philippines

A Modified Coronas Climate Classification
shows the monthly rainfall variations in the
Philippines: Rainfall distribution throughout the
country varies from one region to another, depending
upon the direction of the winds and the location of
mountain systems.

•TYPE I – Two pronounced seasons.

Red Dry from November to April, wet
during rest of the year

•TYPE II – No dry season with a very

Yellow pronounced rainfall from November

to April and wet during the rest of
the year.

•TYPE III – Seasons are not very

Green pronounced; relatively dry from

November to April; wet during the
rest of the year.

•TYPE IV – Rainfall is more or less

Blue distributed throughout the year.

Rainfall Observation
In their weather forecast, PAGASA or
Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical
and Astronomical Services
Administration publishes regularly
updated color-coded satellite images
generated from Himawari-8 (shown
at right), a geo-stationary weather
sattelite that that visualizes rain
distribution in the Philippines. This
satellite is succesor to Japan

monitoring.

Today, some provinces of the Philippines are considered areas highly at risk to the
occurrence of tropical depressions, tropical storms, typhoons and super typhoons.
These are: Cagayan; Albay, Ifugao, Sorsogon, Kalinga, Ilocos Sur, Ilocos Norte,
Camarines Norte, Mountain Province, Camarines Sur, Northern Samar, Catanduanes,
Apayao, Pampanga, La Union, Nueva Ecija, Pangasinan, Masbate, Tarlac, and
Western Samar.

The Philippine Radar Network

In addition to the satellite observation,
PAGASA operates 10 weather radar stations
all over the Philippines in analyzing rainfall
from thunderstorms or typhoons. A rain
gauges was use and the most common is the
tipping bucket type. For this type of rain
gauge, the funnel collects the rain and when
it has a certain amount of precipitation, the
rain gauge sends electrical signals to the
receiver.

EL NIÑO HAZARD
While we are usually concerned with heavy rainfall events, lack of rain is also
a significant condition that we also experience. The Philippines experiences the El
Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) or simply El Niño.

El Niño a significant increase in ocean temperature and it occurs at irregular

intervals ranging from 2-7 years. Months prior to the onset of El Niño, PAGASA
publishes Drought/Dry spell outlook meant as a warning for impending dry
conditions so the people can prepare for such extreme events.
La Niña that describes the cooling of surface ocean waters and is a
counterpart to El Nino, which is unusually warm ocean temperatures in the
equatorial region of the Pacific Ocean.

What I Have Learned

Short Term: Hydrometeorological Hazards Maps

1. Draw a risk map & analyze whether your home ground is/are prone to typhoons
and/or thunderstorms.
2. Allow appreciation of house location, relative to its surroundings with emphasis
on topography, waterways/drainage system, mountain slopes, etc. You could seek
help from your parent, friends, neighbors or any adult close to you.
3. Indicate areas in the map prone to hydrometeorological hazards discussed in class
(floods, flash floods, storm surges).
4. Provide a color legend for the following hazards for standardization.

Suggested color scheme: Red – flood-prone, Orange – flash flood-prone, Purple –

storm surge-prone

5. After finishing hazard maps, you must present your output to parents/ guardian
and have them signed on your personalized hazard map as a proof that you made
this task done.
