A typhoon is a tropical cyclone that develops in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean, and refers to a rainstorm with a maximum wind speed of over 17. 2 meters per second. The origin of the word typhoon is said to have come from the Chinese word Taifeng, which means big wind.
A hurricane is a tropical cyclone that develops in the North Atlantic Ocean or the India Ocean, and is defined as a rainstorm with a maximum wind speed of over 32. 7 meters per second.
The nature of typhoons and hurricanes is basically the same, although they differ in the place they are born and the way their wind speed is defined.
