NewsTranscript
00:00The first to enter in October was Hurricane Christine. It hit Northern Luzon and landfalled in Isabela.
00:10Then came Hurricane Leon, which entered the Philippine Area of Responsibility a few days after Hurricane Christine left.
00:16Both passed through Northern Luzon.
00:19On the first week of November, Hurricane Semarse came.
00:23On November 9, Hurricane Nika came.
00:26Just a moment ago, Hurricane Ophel, which also lands in the northern part of the country, was also inside the PAR.
00:32The storm is still waiting outside the PAR, which is called Pepito when it's already inside the PAR.
00:37The reason for the following storms is embedded in the so-called Intertropical Convergence Zone.
00:44The ITCZ is a series of low-pressure areas that oscillate north to south of our country.
00:53So for now, those are the breeding places of our storms.
00:58That's why we can see our storms one after another.
01:02There is also a big effect in the country experienced by the La Niña-like condition.
01:07According to the experts, this is the reason why the storm came to us strongly.
01:12The La Niña means that there is unusual cooling far from us in the Pacific Ocean.
01:20But there is unusual warming in the Pacific Ocean near us.
01:24That's why we can notice that the storms are more like a typhoon and super typhoon category
01:29because the temperature of the Pacific Ocean near us is very hot.
01:34So it's very favorable for our storms to intensify.
01:39The same scenario happened on November 2008, when the La Niña also erupted.
01:45Four storms also entered the country in just one week, which hit the eastern part of the country.
01:51The same happened in October 2016.
01:54The difference this year is that there is no wind storm yet.
01:58If we have a storm, this will be the factor that will change the track of our storm,
02:04which will possibly lower the track of our storm if the storm is already there or fully established.
02:10This is the latest wind storm since the start of the 2015 record of winds.
02:16But according to the forecast, the wind storm is coming soon.
02:20We came from El Niño and now we have La Niña.
02:27And also, there are so-called intra-seasonal variability.
02:30So what we are looking at is not only the day-to-day weather.
02:34Despite the following storms, the trend now is that the number of storms entering the country is lower.
02:40But it's up to us.
02:42The number of storms that become more intense, become typhoon and super typhoon category, that's the increasing trend.
