There are no superstitions that adequately explain a typhoon
superrtitious beliefs about comets and its scientific explanation
There is no scientific explanation for this. - Evan Apolonio
There are many such examples. If a person becomes sick, a superstitious explanation could be that an evil witch has cast a spell on that person. The scientific explanation may be that the disease is caused by a bacterial infection. The superstitious explanation is not based on fact, only on paranoia. The scientific explanation would be based on actual medical knowledge, and observation of the sick person.
Superstitious beliefs are everywhere with us, it depends with the geographical location. For instance in Africa, folks believe that if a man is not accorded proper burial, then he will haunt the people.
People living in the Philippines are very superstitious but are not oblivious to scientific explanations. Many believe in superstitions but will work around them based on the scientific knowledge that is available.
A typhoon occurs when there is low barometric pressure over a warm part of the ocean. It gains wind speed and absorbs water until it reaches land.

typhoon
A typhoon is a tropical storm that occurs in the Northwest Pacific ocean. It is a cyclone that occurs most often between the International date line and the equator. The legend of the typhoon dates back to the Greek Gods when a Typhon was the most feared God in Olympus until Zeus threw 100 lightening bolts at him and knocking him off Mount Olympus.
A super typhoon is a typhoon with sustained winds of at least 150 mph.
