 Hazard : A dangerous phenomenon, substance, human activity or
condition that may cause loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property
damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and economic disruption, or
environmental damage.

Risk: The combination of the probability of an event and its negative

consequences.

Hydrometeorology is a branch of meteorology and hydrology that studies the
transfer of water and energy between the land surface and the
lower atmosphere. UNESCO[1] has several programmes and activities in place that
deal with the study of natural hazards of hydrometeorological origin and the
mitigation of their effects. Among these hazards are the results of natural processes
or phenomena of atmospheric, hydrological or oceanographic nature such
as floods, tropical cyclones, drought and desertification.

WHAT IS HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL
HAZARD?
Process or phenomenon of atmospheric,
hydrological or oceanographic nature that
may cause loss of life, injury or other
health impacts, property damage, loss of
livelihoods and services, social and
economic disruption, or environmental
damage.
 TROPICAL CYCLONE

Tropical Cyclones that develops in the north-western part of the Pacific

Ocean between 180 and 100E.

In the Philippines, tropical cyclones (typhoons) are called bagyo. The term bagyo, a
Filipino word meaning typhoon arose after a 1911 storm in the city of Baguio had a
record rainfall of 46 inches within a 24-hour period.

Typically, they begin over warm tropical waters. They derive their energy from the
evaporation of water from the warm ocean surface, which ultimately recondenses into
clouds and rain, while the moist air rises and cools in the atmosphere.

When classes are suspended because of a typhoon, how do you usually feel? Should
you be happy or sad?
 TORNADOE
S

A tornado or locally known as ipo-ipo is a rapidly swirling condensation

funnel whose narrow end comes in contact with the ground. Usually, the
violent swirling air column carries debris and other objects that it can pick
up from the ground.
Tornadoes occur anywhere in the Philippines at an average of 12 to 24
times in a year (PAGASA, 2011).
Local winds
At daytime, air over land areas is
warmer than air over bodies of
water.
- Flow of air from the sea to land is
called sea breeze




At night, land cools faster than
water bodies. Sea air is warmer
than land air. Sea air rises, land
air takes its place. This is the
Land Breeze.

 The name of the wind tells where it originates
Huge land and sea breezes are called monsoons.
seasonal winds, derived from mauism, the Arabic
word for season

Northeast monsoon

October February

Winds blows from cooler continent to warmer ocean.

It comes from northern Asia and blows toward the Pacific Ocean.

Cold season Philippines cool, dry season to the northern.

Winter season north temperate and polar areas.

MONSOON

Hazards associated with amihan are:

thunderstorms, lightning, heavy rainfall, and flooding,
all of which may lead to property damage and health
risks.

Southwest monsoon

Winds blows from cooler ocean to warmer continent.

It comes from the Pacific Ocean and brings rainy

and typhoon season to the Philippines.

Oceans winds bring in warm, moist air, therefore

heavy rains and warm temperatures over the land

FLOODS

A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land that is

usually dry.The European Union (EU) Floods Directive
defines a flood as a covering by water of land not normally
covered by water.In the sense of "flowing water", the word
may also be applied to the inflow of the tide.

Flooding may occur as an overflow of water from water

bodies, such as a river, lake, or ocean, in which the water
overtops or breaks levees, resulting in some of that water
escaping its usual boundaries,[3] or it may occur due to an
accumulation of rainwater on saturated ground in an areal
flood.
 LANDSLIDE

Landslides occur when masses of rock, earth

material, or debris flows move down a slope due
to gravity or water.

Landslides can occur on any terrain if the

conditions are right, and cause significant
damage and casualties to people and property.
Storm Surge & Storm Tide
Storm surge and large waves produced by hurricanes pose the greatest threat
to life and property along the coast.

Storm Tide
is the water level rise during a storm due to the combination of storm surge
and the astronomical tide.
Storm surge
is an abnormal rise of water generated by a storm's winds. Storm surge can
reach heights well over 20 feet and can span hundreds of miles of coastline.

The destructive power of storm surge and large battering waves can result
in loss of life, buildings destroyed, beach and dune erosion and road and
bridge damage along the coast. Storm surge can travel several miles inland.
In estuaries and bayous, salt water intrusion endangers public health and
the environment.
