Tropical Cyclone
A tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating storm system with a low-pressure area, a closed low-level atmospheric circulation, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain and squalls. Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is called a hurricane (), typhoon (), tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression, or simply cyclone. A hurricane is a strong tropical cyclone that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean or northeastern Pacific Ocean. A typhoon is the same thing which occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. In the Indian Ocean and South Pacific, comparable storms are referred to as "tropical cyclones". In modern times, on average around 80 to 90 named tropical cyclones form each year around the world, over half of which develop hurricane-force winds of or more. Tropical cyclones tropical cyclogenesis, typically form over large bodies of relatively warm water. They derive their energy through the evaporation of water ...

Philippine Area Of Responsibility
The Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) is an area in the Northwestern Pacific where PAGASA, the Philippines' national meteorological agency, monitors weather occurrences. Significant weather disturbances, specifically typhoons that enter or develop in the PAR, are given Philippine-specific names. Boundary The area is bounded by six points namely (clockwise): * * * * * * This area encompasses almost all of the land territory of the Philippines, except for the southernmost portions of the province of Tawi-Tawi, and some of the country's claimed islands in the Spratlys. The area also includes the main island of Palau, most of Taiwan, as well as portions of the Malaysian state of Sabah, the Japanese prefecture of Okinawa ( Miyakojima, Tarama, Ishigaki, Taketomi, Yonaguni) and a small patch of land in Brunei ( Brunei–Muara District). Function The establishing decree of PAGASA mandates the weather agency to monitor weather occurrences occurring within the PAR. ...

Typhoon Chebi (2001)
Typhoon Chebi known in the Philippines as Typhoon Emong, was a powerful tropical cyclone that caused damage and deaths in five countries, the Philippines, Taiwan, China, South Korea, and Japan in late-June 2001. The fourth depression, second named storm, and first typhoon of the 2001 Pacific typhoon season, Chebi formed from an area of convection that developed into a tropical depression southeast of Palau. The depression quickly strengthened into Tropical Storm Chebi six hours later. Chebi continued to move westward, passing over cooler waters, which caused Chebi to weaken, but it still maintained tropical storm status as it entered the Luzon Strait on June 23. In the Luzon Strait, Chebi encountered favorable conditions and began to re-intensify. By June 23, Chebi had reached Category 1- equivalent typhoon status. The storm continued to strengthen overnight, and by June 24, Chebi had reached its peak intensity. A trough of low pressure to the north of Chebi caused the storm to ...

Tropical Depression Emong (2005)
The 2005 Pacific typhoon season was the least active typhoon season since 2000, producing 23 named storms, of which 13 became typhoons (including 3 super typhoons). It was an event in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation, in which tropical cyclones form in the western Pacific Ocean. The season ran throughout 2005, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and November. The season's first named storm, Kulap, developed on January 13, while the season's last named storm, Bolaven, dissipated on November 20. The season's first typhoon, Haitang, reached typhoon status on July 13, and became the first super typhoon of the year three days later. The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, to the north of the equator between 100°E and the 180th meridian. Within the northwestern Pacific Ocean, there are two separate agencies that assign names to tropical cyclones, which can often result in a cyclone having two names, one from the JMA and one fr ...

Typhoon Chan-hom (2009)
Typhoon Chan-hom, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Emong, was an erratic tropical cyclone that hit the Philippines in early May 2009. The sixth tropical depression and the second tropical storm to develop during the 2009 Pacific typhoon season, Chan-hom developed out of an area of convectional cloudiness associated with an area of disturbed weather which originated from the remnants of Tropical Depression Crising and formed southeast of Nha Trang, Vietnam on May 2. Moving towards the northeast, it slowly organized according to JTWC who issued a TCFA, and JMA classified Chan-hom as a minor tropical depression later that day. The next day, both JTWC and JMA upgraded the depression to a tropical storm and named it Chan-hom. On May 6, the storm intensified into a Category 1 typhoon, and on May 7, Chan-hom intensified into a Category 2 typhoon equivalent. However, Chan-hom weakened into a severe tropical storm after passing northern Luzon. On May 14, Chan-hom regenerated into a trop ...
