If you decide to shelter at home:

Turn off all electricity, gas and water and unplug all appliances

Keep your Emergency Kit close at hand

Bring your family into the strongest part of the house

Keep listening to the radio for cyclone updates and remain indoors until advised

If the building begins to break up, immediately seek shelter under a strong table or bench or under
a heavy mattress

Beware of the calm eye of the cyclone. Some people venture outdoors during the eye of the cyclone, mistakenly believing that the cyclone has passed. Stay inside until you have received official advice that it is safe to go outside.

During a Typhoon

If a Typhoon is likely in your area, you should:

Listen to the radio or TV for information.

Secure your home, close storm shutters and secure outdoor objects or bring them indoors.

Turn off utilities (electricity) if instructed to do so. Otherwise, turn the refrigerator thermostat to its coldest setting and keep its doors closed.

Turn off LPG tanks

Avoid using the phone, except for serious emergencies.

Moor your boat if time permits.

Ensure a supply of water for sanitary purpose such as cleaning and flushing toilets. Fill the bathtub and other larger containers with water.

Find out how to keep food safe during and after and emergency.

There was a tornado called Kandi on the 9th April 1993 in India.

A typhoon starts off as a convergence of air pressure and moisture produced during water vaporization. Later it meets with global westerly winds at a low pressure area in the equatorial region of the ocean. Based on this location, such convergences often occur in the Pacific Ocean, which contains 28% of the water covering the Earth

# data[].attributes.body
What causes a typhoon is nothing different from what causes a hurricane, because they are both products of low pressure area convergences near the equator. One difference between these two, however, is the direction these convergences will take once they develop either as a typhoon or as a hurricane

Typhoons normally move along a looping track. These courses were identified by analyzing the path records of typhoons formed between 1980 and 2005. There are three most common paths of typhoons. The straight path is the westward path of typhoons across the Philippines, Taiwan, Southern China and Vietnam. The recurving path of typhoons is the most devastating, inflicting damage more than any other path. It lies across China, Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam. Typhoons sometimes follow a northward path from their origin, but only affect some small islands along the path.

Usually a typhoon is accompanied by heavy rainfalls and can generate a heavy wind up to 290 kilometers per hour. Its coverage area can expand up to 800 kilometers. Every year Japan receives significant damage from such tropical storms. The rainfall caused by a typhoon can lead to severe landslides and devastating tides.

A typhoon is a tropical storm occurring especially in the region of the Philippines or the China Sea. It is basically a cyclone originating from the Northwestern Pacific Ocean. The storm’s areas of activities expand from the north of equator to the west of International Date Line. Reportedly, these basins receive the strongest cyclones. Though typhoons are not limited to any particular season of the year, they form mostly between May and November.

both  typhoons and  hurricanes are tropical cyclones but differ in their locations. The  difference between hurricane ansd typhoonis that tropical cyclones in the west Pacific are called Typhoons and those in the Atlantic and east Pacific ocean are called Hurricanes. It's the longitudew that matters.

definitions of a typhoon
1.a tropical cyclone or hurricane of the western Pacific area and the China seas. 2. a violent storm or tempest of India.

Weather fronts mark the boundary between two masses of air of different temperature, humidity, and densities, and are associated with the most prominent meteorological phenomena. Strong cold fronts typically feature narrow bands of thunderstorms and severe weather, and may on occasion be preceded by squall lines or dry lines. Such fronts form west of the circulation center and generally move from west to east; warm fronts form east of the cyclone center and are usually preceded by stratiform precipitation and fog.

Cyclones are characterized by inward spiraling winds that rotate about a zone of low pressure. The largest low-pressure systems are polar vortices and extratropical cyclones of the largest scale (the synoptic scale). Warm-core cyclones such as tropical cyclones and subtropical cyclones also lie within the synoptic scale.

Tropical Cyclones are formed over the ocean in the area around the equator, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.In meteorology, a cyclone is a large scale  air mass that rotates around a strong center of low amtmosphetic  pressure.

A tornado is a violent rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of up to 300 mph. They can destroy large buildings, uproot trees and hurl vehicles hundreds of yards. They can also drive straw into trees. Damage paths can be in excess of one mile wide to 50 miles long. In an average year, 1000 tornadoes are reported nationwide

Australia's official tropical cyclone season is November and April. The preferred months are January, February and March. When there is a combination of high sea temperatures, high humidity and low level winds converging into the monsoon trough. Tropical cyclones form over the warm tropical oceans from they derive  their energy as clusters of thunderstorms . They  can persist for a number of days before the circulation pattern characteristics of a tropical cyclone forms. Over land or cooler waters there is insufficient energy available  to sustain them.  Winds in the eye are light and variable in colour

The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) is in charge of monitoring typhoons and issuing typhoon forecasts.Similarly to the National Hurricane Center's major hurricanes, the JMA classifies strong typhoons with winds of at least 92 mph as severe typhoons, and those with winds of at least 120 mph as super typhoons.

TROPICAL CYCLONES ARE intense, spinning storm systems, with low-pressure centres that can be vast in size. They form over warm oceans and can wreak havoc when they approach the shore.
As the name suggests, tropical cyclones and hurricanes occur in the world's tropics. They require the difference in speed of rotation of the Earth at different latitudes to gather momentum as they spin, and they can form either side of the equator.
Cyclones are called hurricanes in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific, typhoons in Southeast Asia, and cyclones in the Indian Ocean and western Pacific around Australia.
Cyclone Yasi is a big one, with predicted wind speeds of over 295km/h, a core region 500km in diameter, and a zone of associated storm activity spread over 2000km.
"It's a serious event. It's the biggest one that anyone living today has seen in Queensland," says Professor Jonathan Nott at James Cook University. "We've been lulled into a false sense of security in Queensland because we've been through a fairly quiet time of cyclones since the 1970s."

Most tornadoes are formed from thunderstorms. You need cool moist air and dry air. when these two meet they create instability in the atmosphere. a change in wind direction and in wind speed with increasing hieght it creates  an inviable, horizontal spinning effect in the lower atmosphere.
