The Philippines is a country regularly hit by tropical cyclones. In 2013, state weather bureau PAGASA revised the four lists of names for such weather disturbances within the Philippine area of responsibility.
Each main list is used every four years. A corresponding auxiliary list will be used in the event that the number of cyclones within a given year exceeds 25. Following is the list for 2015:

I have been reading about tropical cyclones on ultius thanks for sharing this awesome article kalabasa keep sharing more articles
ReplyDeleteI was looking for Tropical Cyclones and their names and classifications. Your post helped me a a lot. Thanks for such a good share. Keep posting more articles.
ReplyDeleteThese names are quite interesting. I was in Philippines when ONYOK occurred. I was doing my project management program then.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know that people name tropical cyclones. I am very curious of that and I would like to know what do people do it for?
ReplyDeleteI know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform...
