How did the typhoon get its name? Typhoon list

There have been frequent typhoons recently, and you can often see typhoons being named. But how did the typhoon get its name? Bian Xiao will introduce it to you today, but one thing we should pay attention to is not to travel when the typhoon comes.

How is a typhoon named?

In fact, before the 20th century, when a typhoon came, all countries that might be affected would give it a name, which led to many different names for the same typhoon. In order to avoid confusion, 1997 at the 30th meeting of the Typhoon Committee of the World Meteorological Organization held in Hong Kong, the countries and regions concerned decided to standardize the names of typhoons, namely, Cambodia, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, China, Japan, Laos, Macau, China, Malaysia, Philippines, South Korea, Thailand, the United States, Micronesia, Vietnam, etc. 14 member countries and regions. Each country or region puts forward 10 names to form a named list, so that you can use it directly when a typhoon comes. When all these names are used, you can start the cycle from the beginning.

But if the typhoon causes great damage, its name will be permanently deleted, and then the original nominated area will propose a new name to replace it. For example, the typhoon "Dragon King" in 2005 was removed from the Typhoon Committee because it caused huge economic losses and casualties, and was later replaced by "Anemone" re-nominated by Chinese mainland.

Knowing the naming rules of typhoons, friends in typhoons must pay attention to safety, pay attention to weather news in time, try to stay indoors, close doors and windows and protect themselves.

TD: tropical depression

TS: tropical storm

STS: severe tropical storm

T: typhoon.

STY: strong typhoon

Super typhoon

Tropical cyclone grade:

1, classification principle of tropical cyclones

The classification of tropical cyclones is based on the maximum average wind speed near the bottom center.

2. Classification of tropical cyclones

Tropical cyclones are divided into six grades: tropical depression, tropical storm, strong tropical storm, typhoon, strong typhoon and super typhoon.

The maximum average wind speed near the center of tropical cyclone bottom is10.8m/s ~17.1m/s (wind force 6~7), which is a tropical depression.

When the wind reaches 17.2 m/s ~ 24.4 m/s (wind force 8~9), a tropical storm occurs;

When it reaches 24.5 m/s ~32.6 m/s, it is a strong tropical storm (wind10 ~11);

When the wind reaches 32.7m/s ~ 41.4m/s (wind 12~ 13), it is a typhoon;

When it reaches 4 1.5 m/s to 50.9 m/s, it is a strong typhoon (wind14 ~15);

Or more than 5 1.0 m/s (wind 16 or above) is a super typhoon.
