Nothing except geography. Tropical storms occur in several of the world's oceans, and except for their names, they are essentially the same type of storm. In the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and the Eastern Pacific Ocean, they are called hurricanes. In the Western Pacific Ocean, they are called typhoons. In the Indian Ocean, the Bay of Bengal, and Australia, these types of storms are called cyclones.
Technically, all hurricanes are cyclones but not all cyclones are hurricanes: if their wind speed is over 74 miles per hour, they're hurricanes, if not, they're just cyclones or tropical storms.

Note:
Pressure systems that develop over tropical waters, with tropical-related characteristics are tropical cyclones, which include tropical storms, hurricanes, typhoons (western Pacific), etc., are called tropical cyclones.
Systems that tend to develop in the multitudes with a jet stream, cold core, etc. are referred to as extra-tropical cyclones. These systems usually produce severe weather in the spring and fall, and severe winter weather in the winter.

A tornado is a relatively small storm, usually under a mile wide that typically forms over land. Most tornadoes last a few minutes, never lasting more than a few hours. Tornadoes are entirely a wind event
A typhoon is a very large storm system, usually a few hundred miles across that forms over warm ocean water. A typhoon can easily last several days. In addition to strong winds a typhoon brings heavy rain and flooding.
A storm is virtually any weather event which produces strong wind, heavy rain and/or some dangerous weather condition. A typhoon is a kind of storm generically called a tropical cyclone and is essentially the same thing as a hurricane.
A typhoon is a large-scale tropical storm system that occurs in the Pacific Ocean north of the equator between 180 and 140 degrees east, characterized by low pressure, counterclockwise rotation, organized convection, and sustained winds of at least 74 mph.
because when the storm is when the typhoon
Location is the key here! Typhoons are a Pacific thing and Hurricanes are an Atlantic thing. A couple have been storms in both Oceans!
a tropical cyclone is in the tropics
Typhoon has alot of names example manghut typhoon tip and others but the hurricanes does not have names
The only difference between a hurricane, a cyclone, and a typhoon is the location where the storm occurs.
Yes. A typhoon is a storm, it is a tropical storm.
A typhoon - is a rotating storm similar to a hurricane. A flood - us simply excess water that cannot be carried away by a river system - and can be caused by various events.
First we must cover the difference between a hurricane and a typhoon, which is only one of location. A hurricane occurs in the Atlantic Ocean or in the northern Pacific Ocean east of the International Date Line. A typhoon occurs in the northern Pacific Ocean west of the International Date Line. A major hurricane is a hurricane of at least category 3 strength on the Saffir-Simpson scale, that is with winds of at least 111 mph. Super typhoon is an unofficial category for a typhoon with winds of at least 150 mph, which is equivalent to a strong category 4 hurricane.
A storm with winds of 35-64 km/h would not be a typhoon. The minimum wind speed for a storm to be considered a typhoon is 119 km/h. A tropical system with winds of 35-64 km/h would be a tropical depression.
The only difference between a hurricane, a cyclone, and a typhoon is the location where the storm occurs.
One's a typhoon and one's a normal storm
Yes. A typhoon is a storm, it is a tropical storm.
Yes a typhoon is a type of storm that rotates.
A typhoon - is a rotating storm similar to a hurricane. A flood - us simply excess water that cannot be carried away by a river system - and can be caused by various events.
A typhoon is not stronger than a hurricane. The only difference is where they form. The strength of the storm depends upon the temperature of the oceans over which they form. Generally, the warmer the water, the more intense the storm.
No. A typhoon is essentially the same thing as a hurricane, the difference is where in the world they occur. A hurricane is a storm that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean or eastern Pacific. A typhoon is the same type of storm in the western Pacific. Making landfall does not make a difference. However, a hurricane that crosses into the western Pacific becomes a typhoon and a typhoon that crosses into the eastern Pacific becomes a hurricane, though this is less common.
The center of a typhoon is the eye of the typhoon. Also known as The Eye of The Storm.
Typhoon originates in the Greek for their monster Typhoon the storm giant.
A tsunami is a wave resultant from a storm. However, cyclones and typhoons are very similar with cyclones occurring in the western hemisphere and typhoons in the eastern. The major difference is that the eye of a cyclone is round, whereas the eye of a typhoon is slanted.
the different typhoons are tropical depression,tropical storm,typhoon,and super typhoon
A typhoon is a tropical storm that takes place mainly in the Pacific Ocean.
