Best Answer

A Typhoon is what a Hurricane in the Pacific becomes once it crosses the 180 degree line. If it would go into the Indian ocean, it would become a Cyclone. The same storm in Australia is called a Willy Willy.

A hurricane is wide and if powerful then circular and will have an eye of calm air in the center. Other storms have other features of a hurricane except for the eye.
