    even deaths.
    Monsoons
    Farmers welcome monsoons because it will bring
    water to their crops. However, fishermen do not
    welcome monsoons because it is difficult for them to
    fish during monsoons since the ocean waters tend to be
    wavy. In addition, Habagat brings heavy rain that has
    similar harmful effects with the typhoons.

    results in dying of crops, drying of dams, and warmer
    temperature. A lot of people complain about the hotness of the
    environment and some suffer from heat stroke. Also, some
    farmers cannot earn money because their crops have dried up.

    with low water supply cannot provide water and electricity.
