From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Philippines is archipelagic country in Southeast Asia, located in the northwest Pacific Ocean. It consists of 7,641 islands. The country is known to be "the most exposed country in the world to tropical storms", with about twenty tropical cyclones entering the Philippine area of responsibility each year. In the Philippine languages, tropical cyclones are generally called bagyo.[1]

Climatologically, in the Northwest Pacific basin, most tropical cyclones develop between May and October. However, the Philippines can experience a tropical cyclone anytime in the year, with the most storms during the months of June to September. This article includes any tropical cyclone of any intensity that affected the Philippines from 2000 onwards.

  • May 8–9, 2011: Tropical Storm Aere (Bebeng) made landfall over Catanduanes and brought torrential rainfall over much of the country. 44 people died due to flooding.
  • May 26, 2011: Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) neared the coastline of the eastern portion of the country where its outer rain bands caused flash flooding and landslides.
  • June 22–24, 2011: A large outer rain band of Tropical Storm Meari (Falcon) brought tremendous rainfall across the country. Within two days, parts of Metro Manila were submerged in up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) of water and multiple dams neared their critical or spill level.
  • July 26–27, 2011: Tropical Storm Nock-ten (Juaning) brought torrential rainfall over much of the country, especially with Luzon where much of that archipelago was under Tropical Cyclone Signal No. 2. 75 people were killed by the storm.

  • May 14–17, 2020: Typhoon Vongfong (Ambo) made landfall over Eastern Samar as a Category 3 typhoon, and affected much of Luzon. Preparations for the typhoon were complicated due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout the Philippines, Vongfong caused around 1.57 billion (US$31.1 million) in damage, and killed five people.[31][32]
  • June 11–12, 2020: Tropical Depression Butchoy prompted the PAGASA to issue Tropical Cyclone Signal No. 1 over the western portion of the country as it brought heavy rainfall. The storm's rainfall also prompted PAGASA to declare the start of the 2020 Philippine rainy season on June 12.[33]
