1. By any other name
Typhoons, cyclones and hurricanes are all essentially the same thing – a rotating tropical storm system that starts at sea. What it’s called just depends where in the world it forms.

2. Eye on the size
The eye of a typhoon or hurricane can be anywhere between 3.2km (2mi) across right up to 320km (200mi) in diameter.

3. Record breaker
To date Typhoon Tip in 1979 has been recorded as the largest ever typhoon, but once all the data has been examined Typhoon Haiyan might take its place.

4. Supersized storm
A typhoon only becomes a super-typhoon once surface winds of over 240km/h (150mph) have been sustained for more than a minute.

5. In the line of fire
Due to its location in the tropics, the Philippines is one of the most prone countries to typhoons, as well as other natural disasters like earthquakes because it is also in a tectonic danger zone – the Ring of Fire.

A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean between 180° and 100°E. This region is referred to as the Northwestern Pacific Basin, and is the most active tropical cyclone basin on Earth, accounting for almost one-third of the world's annual tropical cyclones

FULL ANSWER

A typhoon is also called a hurricane or cyclone, depending where on the globe they form. The balmy tropical oceans propagates increased evaporation, and the condensation of that water vapor into clouds releases a lot of heat. The heat creates a large area of low pressure, typically transforming it into a tropical storm. This storm sucks in surrounding winds which begin spinning about themselves due to the Coriolis effect. The storm grows over days and weeks as more moisture and winds are propagated by the warm ocean waters.

Typhoons are essentially gigantic heat engines. The warm water feeds heat into the air above it, and that in turn imparts more energy to the winds rotating in the storm. The warmer the water and the larger the area the warm water occupies, the more energy the storm picks up and the faster the winds become. Hurricane season occurs when large swaths of the ocean thousands of miles across possess waters warm enough to trigger and sustain multiple typhoons.

# data[].attributes.body
The Super Typhoon was fuelled by ideal conditions: low wind shear and a warm Pacific Ocean.

The Philippines is particular vulnerable to typhoons because of the vast expanse of warm water acting as a birth place for storms and few pieces of land to slow them down.

Most typhoons (known as cyclones or hurricanes elsewhere) do not hit land at their peak when they reach land, but Haiyan did.

Typhoons are cyclonic tropical storms caused by a combination of warm water, evaporation, swirling winds and other factors. They typically start as smaller more mundane storms, but under the right conditions they may grow into monster coastline-wrecking typhoons.
