Amihan (original) (raw)
In the Philippines, Amihan refers to the season dominated by the trade winds, which are experienced in the Philippines as a cool northeast wind. It is characterized by moderate temperatures, little or no rainfall in the central and western part of Luzon and Visayas, and a prevailing wind from the east.

| dbo:abstract | In the Philippines, Amihan refers to the season dominated by the trade winds, which are experienced in the Philippines as a cool northeast wind. It is characterized by moderate temperatures, little or no rainfall in the central and western part of Luzon and Visayas, and a prevailing wind from the east. On the east coast of Luzon it brings drizzling rainfall and squalls. The effect on Mindanao is relatively less than in the northern part of the country. As a rule of thumb, the Philippines' amihan weather pattern begins sometime in November or December and ends sometime in May or June. There may, however, be wide variations from year to year. Throughout the rest of the year, the Philippines experiences the west or southwest wind; south west monsoon, which in turn is referred to as the Habagat. The habagat season is characterized by hot and humid weather, frequent heavy rainfall, and a prevailing wind from the western parts. The main indicator of the switch between the amihan and habagat seasonal patterns is the switch in wind direction. In most years this transition is abrupt and occurs overnight. In some years there is a period of perhaps a week or two where the wind will switch between amihan and habagat patterns several times before settling into the pattern for the new season to come. (en) Amihan se refiere a la estación dominada por los vientos alisios, que se experimenta en la Filipinas como un "viento frío del nordeste". Se caracteriza por temperaturas moderadas, con poca o ninguna lluvia, y un del este. Como regla general el tiempo amihan de Filipinas empieza en algún momento en septiembre u octubre y acaba en algún momento en mayo o junio. Puede, sin embargo, haber amplias variaciones de año en año. A lo largo del resto del año, las Filipinas experimentan un "viento del oeste o del sudoeste; monzón del sudoeste", que a su vez se llama el Habagat. La estación de Habagat se caracteriza por un tiempo húmedo y cálido, frecuentes e intensas lluvias, y un viento preponderante del oeste. El principal indicador del cambio entre las pautas estacionales de Amihan y Habagat es el cambio en la dirección del viento. En la mayor parte de los años esta transición es abrupta y ocurre de la noche a la mañana. En algunos años hay un período de quizás alrededor de una semana o dos donde el viento cambia entre pautas de Amihan y Habagat varias veces antes de establecerse en la pauta de la nueva estación.
