By measuring the sustained wind speed. If the wind speed of a tropical cyclone is anywhere in the range of 39 to 73 mph then it is a tropical storm. If the wind speed is 74 mph or greater then it is a hurricane.
The source of the tropical cyclone is warm moist air and the lateral heat it contains so it brings a lot of heat especially when the host air descend in the eye / centre of the storm It form Cumulu nimbus clouds heavy rainfall and thunderstorm Wind speed is high
It reached around 190km/h at some point and was classified a category 5 tropical cyclone when it his Myanmar's division of Ayeyarwady by flowing through the Irrawaddy River.
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.
A tropical cyclone officially becomes a hurricane when sustained winds reach 74 mph (119 km/h)

signal number 1 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 36 hour with wind speed of 30 to 60 kilometers per hour. Signal 2 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 24 hour with wind speed 600to100 kilometres per hour. Signal 3 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 18 hours with a wind speed of 100 to 185 kilometers per hour. finally signal 4 is a tropical cyclone that will be coming to your place within the next 12 hour with wind speed of more than 85 kilometers per hour.
The highest sustained wind speed recorded in a tropical cyclone was 190 mph, which was measured in several storms including Hurricane Camille and Typhoon Tip. The highest gust recorded in a tropical cyclone was 253 mph on April 10, 1996 on Barrow Island off the coast of Australia.

The highest sustained wind speed on record in a tropical cyclone came with Typhoon Haiyan in 2013 with peak sustained wind speeds of 195 mph.
When still out at sea, severe Tropical Cyclone Larry was a Category 5 cyclone. By the time Larry made landfall in North Queensland near Innisfail, it was a Category 4 with wind gusts reaching 240 km/h (150 mph).
253 MPH on Barrow Island, Australia. It was during the passage of tropical cyclone Olivia on April 10, 1996.
Hurricanes produce strong winds. In fact, to be considered a hurricane a tropical cyclone must have winds of 74 mph or greater.
Yes: willy willy. That's a severe tropical cyclone. Correction: Contrary to popular belief, a willy-willy is not a severe tropical cyclone. A willy-willy is a small, harmless twister that does nothing more than collect dust and debris as it sweeps along. In the southern hemisphere, cyclones are known as cyclones. In the northern helishpere they are known as either hurricanes or, in parts of Asia, typhoons. Cyclone is the generic term for a severe tropical storm that can be categorised into varying degrees of destructiveness, according to the speed of the winds.
