We all know what a typhoon is. It brings a lot of rain and strong winds. The term
1.
is used only in the northwestern part of the Pacific Ocean. In the northern
part of the Atlantic Ocean, the equivalent term is 2.
The winds in a typhoon move
in a 3.
direction. In a 4.
the wind speed is greater
than 200 kilometers per hour. If the wind speed is less, from 119 to 200 kph, then it is called
typhoon. If the wind speed is between 65 and 118 kph, it is called a 5.
And
when the wind speed is between 35-64 kph, it is a 6.
In simple terms, a 7.
is a system of thunderstorms that are moving around a center. As the
winds intensify or weaken, the category upgrade or downgraded accordingly. In the
Philippines, we call it 8.
whether it is a tropical depression, a tropical storm or a
typhoon. When a weather disturbance enters the 9.
the weather bureau which
is 10.
begins to monitor it.
