Too much water in the 'wrong' place! Overflowing of water onto land that is normally dry, typically pavement; due to overflow, flooding occurs, usually in Manila
Warm-core low-pressure systems associated with a spiral inflow of mass at the bottom level and a spiral outflow at the top level. Form over oceans where sea surface temperatures are greaterthan26°C
Typhoons occur in the westernPacific Ocean (Eastern Hemisphere), hurricanes in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific (Western Hemisphere), and cyclones in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean
Abnormal rise of water generated by a storm, over and above the predicted astronomical tides. **Another factor is that the land area may recede, bringing the water closer to the land.
