Conditions of the environment
Before, During and After of a
Typhoon.
Science grade 5
 How do we know if it is going to
rain? Observing the sky help us to
know the weather. If it is quite dark,
there is a big possibility that it will
rain. Look at sky. What can you say
about it? Are we going to have a
sunny or rainy day.
Before a typhoon
 Before a typhoon, High clouds are observed in the sky.
The air is dry and cold since most of the warm air has
already risen. The relative humidity is high. The wind
blows gently, and scattered rain showers may occur.
During a typhoon
 During a typhoon, the sky is dark and cloudy. Heavy
rainfall accompanied by strong winds occurs. Big
waves are also observed near the cost
 Flashfloods, heavy rainfall, landslides, some trees
and crops may be uprooted because of strong winds.
Public Storm Warning Signals

Atmospheric and Geophysical and Astronomical Services
