10 Mean warming over the 20 th century is less than global mean land temperature change, typical of tropical regions. A pattern is apparent, with northern, southern regions warming most. Metro Manila has warmed less than most other parts of the Philippines. Warming pattern relative to is somewhat weaker, but qualitatively similar.

11 Anomaly of Annual Philippine Rainfall With Normal Base Period Annual 5 years mean An increase of C from (56 years)

12 Regions that have warmed the most (northern Luzon, Mindanao) have also dried the most. Largest precipitation trends are on the order of 10% over the 20 th century.

13 1128 Actual tracks With the projected increase in temperature this could mean much stronger and more intense tropical cyclones.
