Typhoon

Typhoon cyclones, also known as tropical cyclones or hurricanes, are strong circular storms with low air pressure, strong winds, and heavy rain that form over warm tropical oceans. As long as it is over warm water, a tropical cyclone can generate winds that are greater than 119 km/h (74 mi/h) by drawing energy from the sea surface. Extreme wind conditions might result in winds of up to 240 km/h (150 mph), with gusts as high as 320 km/h (200 miles per hour). Heavy rains and the catastrophic storm surge, which is a rise of the sea surface that may surpass 6 meters (20 feet) above normal levels, accompany these powerful winds.

 

Due to their combination of strong winds and water, cyclones represent a significant hazard to coastal communities throughout tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Every year in the late summer, cyclones have an influence in places as diverse as the Gulf Coast of North America, northern Australia, eastern India, and Bangladesh (Northern Hemisphere: July–September, Southern Hemisphere: January–March). 

 

Typhoons are tropical cyclones with winds of more than 74 mph that have their origins in the North Atlantic Ocean, Northeast Pacific Ocean east of the dateline, South Pacific east of 160E, and Northwest Pacific Ocean west of the dateline. The tropics' warm waters are being battered by the wind's terrifying force as it spins. This force crashes ashore, causing destruction and perhaps even fatalities. One of nature's most destructive storms, typhoons bring tremendous winds, hazardous seas, and torrential rainfall. 

 

It devastates homes, uproots forests, and causes floods, leaving its mark on the planet. A million dollars' worth of damage and thousands of deaths result from this terrible storm. The flooding displaces everyone, and everything is destroyed. Tropical cyclones are referred to by various names throughout the world. They are known as typhoons in the Philippines, Japan, and China but are known as hurricanes in the western North Pacific and the eastern North Pacific. In the western South Pacific and the Indian Ocean, cyclones are referred to as severe tropical cyclones, tropical cyclones, or just cyclones. 

 

The same kind of storm goes by each of these names. Typhoons and cyclones are therefore identical, with the exception that they form in different locations and are therefore given different names. 

 

Thunderstorms, which give rise to cyclones, grow in hot, humid, and tropical places like India. Strong winds blow higher as temperatures rise. Water droplets are carried by these winds into the atmosphere, where they freeze and eventually return to the earth. The fast motion of falling water droplets and rising air produces lightning and sound.

 

Here, the question of how a thunderstorm develops into a cyclone emerges. Let's now discuss this occurrence as we are aware that heat is necessary for water to transform from a liquid to a gas. Water absorbs heat from the atmosphere and changes it to vapour before clouds are formed. As raindrops form when water vapour changes back to liquid form, this heat is discharged into the atmosphere.

 

The heat released into the environment warms the air in the immediate vicinity. Pressure decreases as a result of the air's preference to climb. More air pours into the center of the storm. This cycle keeps going forever. The culmination of the series of events is a very low-pressure system encircled by very strong winds. A cyclone is the term used to describe this type of weather. Cyclones are formed by a combination of factors, including wind speed, direction, temperature, and humidity.

 

The center of a cyclone is a calm region. It is referred to as the storm's eye. A large cyclone is an air mass that is rapidly rotating and can reach heights of 10 to 15 kilometers. The diameter of the eye varies from 10 to 30 kilometers. There are no clouds and little breezes here. This serene and lovely eye is surrounded by a cloud region that is around 150 kilometers in size. In this location, there are strong winds (150-250 km/h), dense clouds, and a lot of rain. The wind picks more speed as we leave this location and then gradually decreases. The process of creating a cyclone is incredibly complex. 

 

A cyclone is any mass of air that spirals around a region of low pressure. A spinning mass of air contains a well-organized swarm of thunderstorms. Although they are both tropical cyclones in general, typhoons and hurricanes have different sites. Typhoons are the name given to tropical storms that form in the western Pacific Ocean, while hurricanes are the name given to such storms that form in the Atlantic and east Pacific Oceans. The crucial factor is longitude. 

 

As a result, a typhoon cyclone, often referred to as a tropical cyclone or a hurricane, is a powerful circular storm that develops over warm tropical waters and is characterized by low air pressure, strong winds, and heavy rain. Thunderstorms are what give rise to these cyclones or typhoons, and thunderstorms typically develop in hot, humid, tropical regions like India. A cyclone's center is a calm location. A big cyclone is a fast spinning mass of air in the atmosphere that can reach heights of 10 to 15 kilometers. It is sometimes referred to as the storm's eye.
