Day 5
Summer Safety Series: tropical weather

Summer is right around the corner, and many will be taking advantage of the warm weather activities, school breaks, planned vacations, and so much more. We've put together a helpful list to help you prepare for the summer months ahead.

Today is Day 5, and the final day of the Summer Safety Series, and the focus is tropical weather. Whether you live along the coast, planning a summer vacation to the beach, or know someone there, you might be keeping an eye on the tropics.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
