　　台风是个神马东东?

　　A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone¹ 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, accounting² for almost one-third of the world's annual tropical cyclones³.

　　For organisational purposes, the northern Pacific Ocean is divided into three regions: the eastern (North America to 140°W), central (140° to 180°W), and western (180° to 100°E).

　　The Regional Specialized⁴ Meteorological Center (RSMC) for tropical cyclone forecasts is in Japan, with other tropical cyclone warning centers for the northwest Pacific in Hawaii (the Joint⁵ Typhoon Warning Center), the Philippines and Hong Kong.

　　While the RSMC names each system, the main name list itself is coordinated⁶ among 18 countries that have territories threatened by typhoons each year. The Philippines use their own naming list for systems approaching the country.

　　台风(Typhoon)，指形成于热带或副热带26℃以上广阔海面上的热带气旋。

　　世界气象组织定义：中心持续风速在12级至13级(即32.7~41.4m/s)的热带气旋为台风(typhoon)或飓风(hurricane)。

　　日本气象厅定义：中心持续风速118~156km/h(32.8~43.3m/s)称之为台风。

　　北太平洋西部(赤道以北，国际日期线以西，东经100度以东)地区通常称其为台风，

　　而北大西洋及东太平洋地区则普遍称之为飓风。

　　每年的夏秋季节，我国毗邻的西北太平洋上会生成不少名为台风的猛烈风暴，有的消散于海上，有的则登上陆地，带来狂风暴雨，是自然灾害的一种。
