Hurricane Roslin killed two people in Nayarit, Mexico. What's the difference between a hurricane and a typhoon?

Hurricane? Roslin? Two people were killed in Nayarit, Mexico. There is no essential difference between a hurricane and a typhoon. They are all composed of tropical cyclones with a ratio of 12 or more, but they are named according to different geographical locations. Generally speaking, it is called a hurricane that happened near the United States. Its destructive power is quite great, and walls and windows may be blown down by hurricanes at any time. What happened near China Bay is called typhoon, which is a strong wind of 12 magnitude from the ocean. People in coastal areas need to take precautions in advance to survive the typhoon safely.

The earth where we live is very big. In every part of the world, there may be a strong wind of 12. Hurricane and typhoon are only different in regional names, and the official weather forecast calls them typhoons. Every year during the typhoon season, coastal cities will remove billboards, shelters and other items in advance. Before the typhoon hits, the weather forecast will also broadcast the direction of the typhoon and the areas that will pass in the future for 24 hours, reminding the general public to take preventive measures.

Because the typhoon's wind is a strong wind above 12, it is quite destructive to the house. People will also avoid disasters at home and stay outdoors for a long time. When there is a typhoon, we tend to hide in tall and stable buildings. Because typhoons are usually accompanied by heavy rain or hail, cars commonly used by families will also drive to sheltered heights instead of waiting to be flooded in underground parking lots. Typhoon has also caused great losses to people's economy and life safety. After the typhoon, the state will also send corresponding rescuers to find people in trouble at the first time and help them out of danger. When we unfortunately encounter a typhoon, we must close the doors and windows and reinforce them with wood to remind residents to protect their property.

So, do you know how many levels the typhoon is divided into?
