The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) releases tropical cyclone warnings in the form of Public Storm Warning Signals (PSWS) An area having a storm signal may be under:
- PSWS #1 - Tropical cyclone winds of 30-60 km/h are expected within the next 36 hours. (Note: If a tropical cyclone forms very close to the area, then a shorter lead time is seen on the warning bulletin.)
- PSWS #2 - Tropical cyclone winds of 60-100 km/h are expected within the next 24 hours.
- PSWS #3 - Tropical cyclone winds of 100-185 km/h are expected within the next 18 hours.
- PSWS #4 - Tropical cyclone winds of greater than 185 km/h are expected within 12 hours.

How many typhoon signals does PAGASA sends out?
PAGASA issues 4 levels of public typhoon signals with each one linked roughly to a stage of development.Signal #1 - Tropical Depressionwinds of 30-60 km/h (20-35 mph) are expected to occur within 36 hoursSignal #2 - Tropical Stormwinds of 60-100 km/h (40-65 mph) are expected to occur within 24 hoursSignal #3 - Typhoonwinds of 100-185 km/h, (65-115 mph) are expected to occur within 18 hours.Signal #4 - Super Typhoon as defined by the Joint Typhoon Warning Centerwinds of at least 185 km/h, (115 mph) are expected to occur within 12 hours
The stages of typhoon?
The stages of a typhoon typically involve formation, intensification, mature stage, and weakening or dissipation. During formation, a cluster of thunderstorms develops and starts to organize into a low-pressure system. As it intensifies, wind speeds increase and the typhoon becomes more organized with a well-defined eye. In the mature stage, the typhoon reaches its peak intensity with the strongest winds and heaviest rainfall. Finally, it weakens as it moves over cooler waters or encounters unfavorable atmospheric conditions, eventually dissipating.
Why PAGASA issue public storm warning signal for tropical depression when a depression is not a storm?
PAGASA uses the term "public storm warning signal" to warn the public of potential impacts like heavy rains and strong winds even if the disturbance has not yet intensified into a full-fledged storm or typhoon. This helps alert communities early and prepare for possible adverse weather conditions.
What is a reflected radar signal called?
A reflected radar signal is called an echo.
What does signal 1 means?
Signal 1 is one of 4 warning signals that are used by PAGASA to indicate the strength of a typhoon in the Philippines. Signal 1 is the least intense of the 4 signals. A typhoon that is this strength will typically cast off winds between 30-60 kph and rains for at least 36 hours.
What are the differences typhoon signal and describe each?
A typhoon signal is a warning issued by meteorological agencies to indicate the presence and intensity of a typhoon. There are different levels of typhoon signals indicating the severity of the storm, ranging from low to high. The signals advise the public on necessary precautions to take, such as staying indoors or evacuating.
What the wind speed of a category typhoon signal one?
The wind speed for a typhoon signal number 1 is typically between 30 to 60 kilometers per hour. This signal indicates that a typhoon is approaching and people should take necessary precautions.
What is public storm signal number 3?
The signal number 3 is the second strongest typhoon!

What is storm typhoon signal no 4?
Storm Typhoon Signal No. 4 is a warning issued by the Hong Kong Observatory indicating that a typhoon is expected to bring sustained winds of 100 to 117 kilometers per hour (62 to 73 miles per hour) or higher. This signal suggests that the weather is dangerous, and the public should take precautions, as there is a risk of significant disruption and damage. It often advises people to stay indoors and avoid outdoor activities.
