The typical diameter of a hurricane (or typhoon) is 300 miles, although they can be considerably larger. This means that hurricane strength winds (74 miles per hour or greater) typically extend out to a radius of 50 miles from the storm center.
A typhoon or a cyclonic storm.
Largest hurricane in world recordsIn the Pacific ocean, Super Typhoon Tip (1979) is the largest.In the Atlantic ocean, Hurricane Ike (2008) is the largest.
There was a Typhoon Ben in 1986. A typhoon is essentially the same thing as a hurricane, only occuring in the western Pacific.
There was a typhoon Amber in 1997. A typhoon is a hurricane that occurs west of the International Date Line and north of the equator.
Storms that are similar to hurricanes are called typhoons in the western Pacific Ocean north of the equator.
A typical hurricane is about 300 miles across while a typical hurricane eye is 20 to 40 miles across.
A typhoon or a cyclonic storm.
Typhoon Tip was larger than Hurricane Ivan. Typhoon Tip holds the record for the largest tropical cyclone ever recorded, although there may have been a larger storm before there was reliable instruments and records of hurricanes and tropical cyclones. Typhoon Tip was about the size of half of the continental United States, while Hurricane Ivan was actually more typical sized for a strong category 5 hurricane.
The hurricane with the largest recorded eye diameter in history is Typhoon Carmen, which occurred in the Pacific Ocean in 1974. The eye of Typhoon Carmen measured an astonishing 230 miles (370 kilometers) in diameter, making it the largest on record. The size of a hurricane's eye is an important indicator of its strength and intensity, with larger eyes typically associated with more powerful storms.
Typhoon is the Japanese word for a hurricane
Hurricane
Typhoon Tip was the largest Tropical Cyclone (hurricane) ever record reaching a peak diameter of 2,220 km (1,380 mi). It occured in 1979 in the Pacific Ocean. It was also the most intense Tropical Cyclone ever. The second largest Tropical Cycle ever in terms of diameter was Typhoon Marge (1951), also forming in the South Pacific.

No, Hurricanes are called typhoons in the east. So in Japan a hurricane would be called a typhoon.
The only difference between a hurricane, a cyclone, and a typhoon is the location where the storm occurs.
They are same.
