 typhoon
- It is a tropical storm that occurs in
Northwest Pacific ocean
- “Tai fung” means “a great wind”
- it has a circular or spiral system of
violent winds
- “Eye” forms when the maximum
wind speeds exceed about 140
km/hr
- it is a region of clear air with
 typhoon
- Warmer ocean water produces more powerful
typhoons, which can grow into
• Super typhoons – wind speed is greater than
220kph
• Typhoons – wind speed is less than 119 to 220kph
• Tropical storms – wind speed is between 65 and
118kph
 Pre- condition of
typhoons
There are main requirements for typhoon formation and
development

• Sufficiently warm sea surface temperatures

• Atmospheric instability
• High humidity in the lower to middle level of the
troposphere
• Enough Coriolis force to develop a low pressure center
• A pre existing low level focus or disturbance
• A low vertical wind shear
