La Niña
Typhoon
• An extremely large,
powerful and
destructive storm that
occurs especially in the
region of the
Philippines or the
China Sea.
 Thunderstorm
• Is a weather condition
generally characterized
by heavy rain, thunder
and lightning and a
possibility of tornado.
 Flashflood

immediate vicinity.
 Flood
• Generally referred
too as the RUNNING
and OVERLAYING
of water on land that
are not ordinary
covered by it.
 Storm Surge
• Escalating seawater
to the coast above
normal sea level
 El Niño
• A flow of unusually warm water along the
western coast of South America that causes
many changes in weather in other places.
 La Niña
• La Niña is a climate pattern that describes the cooling
of surface ocean waters along the tropical west coast
of South America. La Nina is considered to be the
counterpart to El Nino, which is characterized by
unusually warm ocean temperatures in the equatorial
region of the Pacific Ocean.
