Typhoons can form anywhere in the world, however, they are only called that if they occur in the Pacific Ocean north of the equator and west of the International Date Line. A storm of the same type in the Southern Hemisphere is called a cyclone.
Europe is in the northern hemisphere.
Okinawa is in northern hemisphere.
All of Europe is in the northern hemisphere.
China is in The Northern and Eastern hemisphere!
It is in the Northern Hemisphere.
In the northern hemisphere, typhoons rotate counter-clockwise. In the southern they rotate clockwise. This is due to the force of the rotation of the Earth.
Typhoons in the Northern Hemisphere and hurricanes in the Southern Hemisphere rotate in opposite directions due to the Coriolis effect. In the Northern Hemisphere, typhoons rotate counterclockwise, while in the Southern Hemisphere, hurricanes rotate clockwise. This is a result of the Earth's rotation and the way it affects air movements in different hemispheres.
In general, it is Coriolis effect that initiates and maintains the rotation of a tropical cyclone. This phenomenon causes cyclones south of the equator to rotate clockwise, and those north of the equator to rotate anti-clockwise.
Yes, hurricanes, typhoons, and tropical cyclones all spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. This is due to the Coriolis effect, which causes the rotation of large-scale weather systems on Earth.
In the Northern Hemisphere, typhoons spin counterclockwise. In the Southern Hemisphere, they spin clockwise. This is due to the Coriolis effect, which is caused by the Earth's rotation.
Tornadoes and typhoons are both violent weather events that produce strong winds and intense low pressure. Both rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern.
'Cyclone' is the generic term for cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons. These tropical storms are called 'cyclones' in the Southern Hemisphere, and they rotate in a clockwise direction. In the northern hemisphere, where cyclones occur in the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean, they are called hurricanes and those in the South China Sea and regions of Asia are called typhoons. Northern hemisphere cyclones rotate anti-clockwise, so are sometimes called "anti-cyclones".
A number of storms in the northern hemisphere have such characteristics including tropical cyclones (hurricanes an typhoons), some extratropical cyclones, and most tornadoes (on rare occasions they are anticyclonic).
In the Northern Hemisphere, typhoons rotate counterclockwise. In the Southern Hemisphere, they rotate clockwise. This rotation is due to the Coriolis effect caused by the Earth's rotation.

Slovenia is in the northern hemisphere, in Europe.
