Question

How is a typhoon formed?​

Answer 1

Compared to tropical cyclone, we have a few main requirements for typhoon development:

1. sufficiently warm sea surface temperatures,

2. Atmospheric instability,

3. High humidity in the lower to middle levels of the troposphere,

4. Enough Coriolis effect to develop a low pressure center,

5. pre-existing low level focus or disturbance, and

6. low vertical wind shear.

Answer 2

A typhoon forms when winds blow into areas of the ocean where the water is warm. These winds collect moisture and rise, while colder air moves in below. This creates pressure, which causes the winds to move very quickly. The winds rotate, or spin, around a center called an eye.
