Typhoons are powerful storms that can bring heavy rain, strong winds, and cause widespread destruction. Baguio City, being in a mountainous region, is especially vulnerable to the heavy rains that can trigger landslides and floods.

Flooding can occur rapidly in Baguio due to the heavy rains brought by typhoons. Flash floods are particularly dangerous in this region due to the steep slopes and narrow valleys.

Landslides are a common occurrence in Baguio, especially during the rainy season. They can be triggered by both natural factors like heavy rainfall and human activities such as construction.

Secure roofs, windows, and doors. Remove any loose objects that could become projectiles in strong winds. 

Ensure you have enough food, water, and essential supplies to last at least three days. 

Keep your mobile phones and other communication devices fully charged. 

If your area is prone to flooding, plan to move to higher ground.

Move electrical appliances and important items to higher floors if possible.

Place sandbags around your home to prevent water from entering.

If you live near a steep slope, be aware of any changes such as cracks in the ground, leaning trees, or unusual water flows.

Identify safe areas to move to in case of a landslide.

Have your property inspected by a professional if you suspect it is at risk.
