An extremely large, powerful and destructive storm wherein massive count of rainfall and
strong winds occur.
STORM SURGE
A coastal flood or tsunami-like phenomenon of rising water commonly associated with low
pressure weather systems (such as tropical cyclones and strong extratropical cyclones),
the severity of which is affected by the shallowness and orientation of the water body
relative to storm path, and the timing of tides.
PUBLIC STORM WARNING SIGNALS

Administration (PAGASA) releases tropical cyclone warnings in the form of Public Storm
Warning Signals. An area having a storm signal may be under:

winds of 3061 km/h (20-38 mph) are expected to occur within
36 hours

TYPES OF FIRE
EARTHQUAKE

materials below the earths surface.
Two types of earthquake:
Tectonic
- earthquakes produced by sudden movement along faults and plate boundaries
Volcanic
- earthquakes produced by movement of magma beneath volcanoes
AFTER

Check yourself and others for injuries
Clean up chemical spills, toxic flammable materials to avoid any chain
of unwanted events.
Check for fire and if any, have it controlled.
Check water and electrical lines for defects. If any damage is
suspected, turn the system off in the main valve or switch.
Take with you your earthquake survival kit, which should contain all
necessary items for your protection and comfort.
Dont enter partially damaged building, strong aftershocks may cause
these to collapse.
