ByThe Philippines observed a “decline in the frequency” of tropical cyclones forming and entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility , according to a weather expert.
“During the past 10 years, we have been averaging 19 to 20 typhoons per year. Right now, we seldom reach the 19th or 20th mark. Based on our historical record of tropical cyclone occurrences and frequency from 1948 to 2023, there is a decreasing trend in the number of tropical cyclones forming but an increasing trend in the intensity of these typhoons,” Solis said.
Climate change encompasses not only global warming but also a broader range of changes impacting the planet, such as rising sea levels and shrinking mountain glaciers. Meanwhile, the workshop also highlighted the crucial role of the media in conveying key warnings from PAGASA to the public to prevent loss of lives and damage to property during calamities.
