The Philippines is an archipelagic country located in Southeast Asia, beside the northwest Pacific Ocean. The nation consists of 7,641 islands. The country is known to be "the most exposed country in the world to tropical storms", with about twenty tropical cyclones entering the Philippine area of responsibility each year. In the Filipino,[a] tropical cyclones are generally called bagyo.
Climatologically, in the Northwest Pacific basin, most tropical cyclones develop between May and October. However, the Philippines can experience a tropical cyclone anytime in the year, with the most storms during the months of June to September. This article includes any tropical cyclone of any intensity that affected the Philippines between 1900 and 1929.
