Why the Philippines is
Prone to Typhoons
 At the end of the lesson the students will be able to;

a. Infer why the Philippines is prone to typhoons

b. State the role of PAGASA on typhoons
c. List down Weather Equipment used in Weather
Monitoring
d. Perform a short role play demonstrating precautionary
measures before, during, and after a typhoon
Have you ever wonder why this
country is very prone to
typhoons?
 The country is located just
above the equator, it lies along
the west pacific basin, which is
considered the world's busiest
typhoon belt, bounded on the
west by the West Philippine Sea,
on the east by the Pacific ocean,
on the north of Bashi channel,
and on the south by the Sulu and
Celebes Seas
PAGASA
To maintain a nationwide monitoring and forecasting
network concentrating on the weather and other
climatological conditions which may affect the
safety, welfare, and economy of the country
To conduct research on the formation, development, and
movement of typhoons. These studies are done to assist
the agency to improve the design of methods and
measures that would help lessen the destructive effects
of typhoons
To issue bulletins whenever there is a tropical cyclone
spotted within the Philippine Area of Responsibility.
According to the law, the agency must give advisories to the
public every 6 hours for all tropical cyclones, while the
weather bulletins are issued every 12 hours whenever the
typhoon is not expected to hit land.
To release the tropical cyclone warnings
in the form of Public Storm Warning
Signals or (PSWS).
The Philippine Storm Warning Signals
 Instructions

The class will be divided into three groups

One representative will go infront and pick an index card

Role Play
containing before, during, and after a typhoon

Expect that there is a storm warning signal number four

Perform the precautionary measures before, during, and after

the typhoon

You will be given 5 minutes to discuss

Equipments used in
weather monitoring
 DOPPLER
WEATHER
RADAR
These are installed in some strategic
locations in the Philippines for closely
monitoring the movements of typhoons;
the amount of rainfall; and other
atmospheric conditions everyday.
AUTOMATED
RAIN GAUGE
It keeps track of excess rainfall to
provide necessary warning signals,
wether such rainfall can cause
flashfloods or landslides.
 LANDSLIDE EARLY
WARNING
SENSORS (LEWS)
These are invented by the UP and are used
to pick up signals which can be read by the
computer to show the movement of the
soil and ground. This is an effective tool
which can help reduce the risks of
landslide incidents..
AUTOMATED
WEATHER
STATION
This is adopted by the Phil. Bureau and the
DOST which work jointly to monitor the
amount of rainfall and flood levels. This
tool is designed to produce incoming
warning in the form of sirens to signal the
public for evacuation
 WEATHER
SATELLITES
Used to view and gather data about Earth's
weather and climate. A weather satellite's position
several hundred to thousands of miles above
Earth's surface allows observation of weather
across large areas. This extended view also helps
meteorologists spot weather systems and patterns
hours to days before being detected by surface
observing instruments, like weather radar.
 Instructions

The class will be divided into three

Each group will be given a cardboard and a
chalk

Guess Me! The teacher will flash a picture and you have to
determine what it is
after 5 secs. you have to raise your flashcards
The group who have the most score will be given
5 points on the quiz
