Best Answer

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.
