A hurricane is a tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 mph. A tropical depression is a tropical cyclone with winds less than 39 mph. Above that limit it is considered a tropical storm. A tropical depression is of much lower intensity and is generally not as well organized as a hurricane.
Wind speed. A tropical depression is a tropical cyclone with sustained winds less than 39 mph (63 km/h) while a hurricane has sustained winds of 74 mph (119 km/h) or higher. In between them is a tropical storm.
A tropical disturbance is a disorganized low pressure area of showers and thunderstorms that occurs in the tropics and lacks a closed circuluation and center of rotation.
A tropical depression is a more organized area of low pressure with a closed circulation, a center of rotation, and sustained winds less than 39 mph. This qualifies it as a tropical cyclone.
A tropical storm is a stronger, generally more organized tropical cyclone with sustained winds ranging from 39 mph to 73 mph.
A hurricane is a strong tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 mph.
A tropical depression is a very weak tropical cyclone with sustained winds of less than 39 mph. A typhoon is a powerful tropical cyclone in the western Pacific Ocean with sustained winds of at least 74 mph.
It is a matter of organization. A tropical depression has a closed circulation of wind with an identifiable center. A disturbance has some circulation, but it is not closed and has no identifiable center.
A tropical disturbance is an area of showers and thunderstorms that lacks a definite circulation and center of rotation. A tropical depression has a definite circulation and winds of less than 39 mph. When winds reach 39 mph the depression becomes a tropical storm.
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.
A typhoon is a cyclone over the water. They are categorized by a tropical cyclone scale. Usually the categories range from tropical depression, tropical storm, category one (being the lowest) to category five.
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.

the different typhoons are tropical depression,tropical storm,typhoon,and super typhoon
A typhoon and a tropical depression are different intensity levels of tropical cyclone. A tropical depression is organized enough to be considered a tropical cyclone, but has sustained winds of less than 39 mph. If a depression gets stronger it is considered a tropical storm. A typhoon is equivalent to a hurricane, with sustained winds of 74 mph or higher. Most typhoons stat out as tropical depressions.
Hurricane, typhoon, etc.
First, it is a tropical depression with heavy clouds and thunderstorms. Next, it is a tropical storm when the wind gets to 39 miles per hour. Lastly, it becomes a (hurricane,typhoon,cyclone) when the wind hits 74 miles per hour.
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.
A typhoon is a cyclone over the water. They are categorized by a tropical cyclone scale. Usually the categories range from tropical depression, tropical storm, category one (being the lowest) to category five.

A typhoon is a tropical storm that takes place mainly in the Pacific Ocean.
It's hurricane. NOT a Typhoon
A Typhoon is a name used in East Asia for a hurricane. It is a type of tropical cyclone occurring in the western regions of the Pacific Ocean. A typhoon is similar to a hurricane in levels of destructiveness. The word typhoon comes from the Chinese term tai-fung meaning great wind. See "What is a cyclone?" for a fuller definition.A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean between 180° and 100°E
