No. The term tidal wave may refer either to a tidal bore or a tsunami, both of which are entirely different from typhoons. A typhoon is a hurricane that occurs in the western Pacific Ocean; a storm that produces large waves, torrential rain, and very powerful winds. A tsunami is a long-ocean wave or series of waves triggered by some disturbance on the seafloor, usually an earthquake. A tidal bore is a surge of water that occurs when a rising tide is funneled into an inlet or estuary.
