Forecasting involves predicting where a tropical cyclone is going to track
over the next five days, every 6 to 12 hours. The history of tropical cyclone track
forecasting has evolved from a single-station approach to a comprehensive
approach which uses a variety of meteorological tools and methods to make
predictions. The weather of a particular location can show signs of the
approaching tropical cyclone like increasing cloudiness, falling barometric
pressure, increasing tides, squalls, and heavy rainfall.
When should PAGASA give name to a tropical cyclone?
