A typhoon is a powerful tropical cyclone characterized by strong winds, heavy rainfall, and severe thunderstorms. Wind speeds can exceed 74 miles per hour (119 kilometers per hour), with the most intense storms reaching over 150 miles per hour (241 kilometers per hour). The strength of a typhoon is typically classified using the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, which categorizes storms from Category 1 to Category 5 based on sustained wind speeds. Typhoons can cause significant damage due to their wind force, storm surges, and flooding.
