Tropical Depression


* Today I learned that Tropical Depression is a tropical depression is an organized system of clouds and thunderstorms with a defined, closed surface circulation and maximum sustained winds of less than 34 knots (39 mph). It has no eye and does not typically have the organization or the spiral shape of more powerful storms. However, it is already a low-pressure system, hence the name "depression".The practice of the Philippines is to name tropical depressions from their own naming convention when the depressions are within the Philippines' area of responsibility.


* This information will help me in knowing what are the signs of a typhoon.


* I would like to know more about it's possible effects and it's causes.


* As a science class student, the knowledge I gained about this can help me and also my classmates and other people around the world.
