    Hydrometeorological Hazard

    Uploaded by

    John Henry Pahilanga
    This document discusses hydro-meteorological hazards and provides information about tropical cyclones like typhoons and hurricanes. It defines hydro-meteorological hazards as atmospheric, hydrological or oceanographic phenomena that can cause loss of life, property damage or environmental damage. The document identifies signs of impending hazards for typhoons like strong winds and cirrus clouds appearing ahead of the storm. It also describes the formation process of thunderstorms in three stages from cumulus cloud formation to storm dissipation and lists signs like lightning and temperature drops. The objectives are to define, identify different types of and recognize signs of hydro-meteorological hazards in order to create a brochure with safety measures.

    Activity 3: Picture Analysis

    HYDRO
    METEOROLOGICAL
    HAZARDS
    OBJECTIVES
    1. Define hydro-meteorological hazards;
    2. Identify different hydro-meteorological hazards;
    3. Recognize the signs of impending hydro-meteorological
    hazards.
    4. Create a brochure that shows precautionary and Safety
    Measures for Hydrometeorological Hazards.
    HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL
    HAZARDS

    HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL HAZARD is a 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.
    CYCLONE ,TYPHOON OR HURRICANE
    Tropical cyclone, also called typhoon or hurricane, an
    intense circular storm that originates over warm tropical oceans
    and is characterized by low atmospheric pressure, high winds,
    and heavy rain.

    A Typhoon is a low-pressure area or a tropical cyclone that is


    large and violent. It rotates counterclockwise with warm air raising
    above the warm water of the Western Pacific Ocean. On the
    other side of the world, some call it hurricane or wily-wily.
    CYCLONE ,TYPHOON OR HURRICANE

    Hurricanes :occur in the Atlantic Ocean and the eastern


    north Pacific Ocean.

    Typhoons: occur in the western Pacific Ocean.

    Tropical cyclones:occur in the south Pacific Ocean and


    Indian Ocean.
    IMPENDING SIGNS OF HYDRO-METEOROLOGICAL
    HAZARDS

    ❖ TYPHOON
    1. Strong winds
    2. Dark clouds
    3. Blowing debris
    4. Barometers start to drop
    5. Cirrus clouds start to appear ahead of
    tropical cyclone.
    THUNDERSTORM
    This is a powerful, short-lived weather disturbance, almost
    always associated with lightning, thunder, dense clouds,
    heavy rain or hail, and fast, roaring winds. Thunderstorms
    occur when layers of dry, moist air rise to cooler regions of
    the atmosphere in a broad, rapid updraft.
    THUNDERSTORM

    Most thunderstorms form in three stages: the


    cumulus stage when storm clouds form, the
    mature stage when the storm is fully formed,
    and then the dissipating stage when the storm
    weakens and breaks apart.
    IMPENDING SIGNS OF HYDRO-METEOROLOGICAL
    HAZARDS

    ❖ THUNDERSTORM

    1. Cumulus clouds formed


    2. Lightning and thunder
    3. Wind blowing
    4. Temperature drop
