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
