  • The diameter of the typhoon is 50 to 200 miles.
  • The torrential downpour is accompanied by thunder and lightning during the typhoon.

 

Additional Information

  • All the types of tropical cyclones are well developed low-pressure systems.
  • Typhoon occurs in the China sea.
  • A tropical cyclone in the Indian ocean.
  • Hurricanes in the west Indian ilands in the Caribbeans.
  • Tornado in Guniea lands of West Africa and the southern USA in which the local name is a whirlwind.
  • Willy-Willies occurs in north-western Australia.
    • Typhoons
      • regions between 6 to 20 degrees north and south of the equator.
      • most frequent from July to October.
      • the diameter of only 50 to 200 miles.
      • the torrential downpour is accompanied by thunder and lightning.
    • Hurricanes
      • Calm rainless center.
      • the pressure is lowest but wind strength is above 12 of the Beaufort scale.
      • dense dark cloud, violent weather for hours.
    • Tornadoes
      • very small but very violent tropical and subtropical cyclone.
      • air spirals at a tremendous speed as 500 mph.
      • dark funnel cloud of 250 to 1400 feet in diameter.
      • most frequent in spring but can appear almost any time.
      • most frequent in the USA and occurs mainly in the Mississippi basin.
    • Cyclones
      • better known as depressions and are confined to temperate latitude.​
      • depressions vary from 150 to 2000 miles.
      • the wind blows inward into the low pressure in the center.
      • circulates in the anticlockwise direction in the northern hemisphere.
      • circulates in a clockwise direction in the southern hemisphere.
      • precipitation resulting in cyclonic air is due to the convergence of warm tropical air and cold polar air
    • Anticyclone
      • these are opposite to cyclone with high pressure at center and the isobars far apart.
