What is the difference between a Huricane, Typhoon & Cyclone ?

Both Hurricanes and Typhoons are tropical cyclones, though Hurricanes are Atlantic Ocean events while Typhoons are found in the Pacific.

A pressure drop is associated with stormy weather, while high pressure is seen with fair weather.  Air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, so you can still have high winds in areas of high pressure, if low pressure is nearby.  The air carries moisture with it towards the low pressure, which is why storms and low pressure usually coincide.

ALL nations have some natural hazards.  Anything from flooding, earthquake, drought, hurricanes, tornadoes, landslides, take you pick.  Mongolia is VERY unlikely to ever have a hurricane, by the way

A tornado is basically like a giant vacuum cleaner.  They are frightening and amazing all at the same time!\n\nEverything you ever wanted to know about them can be found in this excellent resource from NOAA.

Nothing so long as both occur in the northern hemisphere.  Typhoon is a term generally used in the western Pacific ocean while hurricane is used in the eastern Pacific and Atlantic oceans.  \n\nTyphoon or hurricane winds rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere.  I shall leave it to you to discover why.

somewhere out there! lol\nin a place where there's a typhoon or storm!

They are usually referred to as cyclones or tropical cyclones. A less official term also used is willy-willy.

Hurricanes (Atlantic Ocean) and typhoons (Pacific Ocean) are both cyclonic large low pressure cells exceeding a certain sustained wind speed.  Storms are similar, but smaller and with less sustained winds.  Sailors use the Beaufort Scale to separate intensity of weather systems.

An F-5 tornado is capable of producing MUCH stronger winds than a CAT 5 Hurricane.  However, a tornado will damage on a much smaller scale than a hurricane.  \n\nWhile an F-5 tornado my take out multiple houses, a Cat V hurricane will take out an entire metropolis.

CYCLONES ARE HURRICANES. THE NAMES ARE CHOSEN BY INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT BY THE WORLD METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY... AS ARE THE HURRICANE NAMES WE HEAR ABOUT SO OFTEN IN THE NEWS IN NORTH AMERICA. \n\nHERE'S WHERE YOU CAN FIND THE LIST OF NEXT YEARS NAMES. http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutnames.shtml\n\nMeteorologist Brian Hill

In meteorology, a tropical storm is a storm system with a closed circulation around a center of low pressure, fueled by the heat released when moist air rises and condenses. The name underscores their origin in the tropics and their cyclonic nature. They are distinguished from other cyclonic storms such as nor'easters and polar lows by the heat mechanism that fuels them, which makes them "warm core" storm systems.

C'mon now, sometimes I wonder why people ask questions like this....sorry to be rude but I know you know what a hurricane is but here...\n\nhur·ri·cane    ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (hûr-kn, hr-)\nn. \nA severe tropical cyclone originating in the equatorial regions of the Atlantic Ocean or Caribbean Sea or eastern regions of the Pacific Ocean, traveling north, northwest, or northeast from its point of origin, and usually involving heavy rains. \nA wind with a speed greater than 74 miles (119 kilometers) per hour, according to the Beaufort scale.

It occurs when their is a specific change in pressure.\n\nIn meteorology, an anticyclone (i.e. opposite to a cyclone) is a weather phenomenon in which there is a descending movement of the air and a relative increase in barometric pressure over the part of the earth's surface affected by it. (This meteorogical phenomenon can also be observed on Jupiter, and can quite possibly exist on other planets).

Huracaine is a cyclic movement of the air caused by a depression in the atmosphere, usually it picks up speed on water and slows down as it gets inland. A tsunami is a tidal wave caused by an earth quake. Usually the epicenter of the earth quake is in the middle of the ocean, but there have been cases where the epicenter was along the coast and it still caused giant waves to come crashing.

In meteorology, a cyclone is an area of low atmospheric pressure characterised by inward spiraling winds that spin clockwise in the northern hemisphere of the Earth, or counterclockwise in the southern hemisphere. It is a generic description covering a wide variety of different meteorological phenomena such as tropical cyclones, Extratropical cyclones and tornadoes, thus is rarely used by meteorologists without a qualifying term.\n\nThe terms hurricane and typhoon are regionally specific names for a strong tropical cyclone—a non-frontal, synoptic-scale, warm-core low-pressure system with cyclonic surface wind circulation (Holland 1993). Specifically, hurricanes generally refer to such storms in the Atlantic Basin and the Pacific Ocean east of the International Date Line. Typhoons refer to the storms in the north Pacific west of the International Date Line. The typhoon term has also been applied to tropical cyclones in the South Pacific or Indian Ocean, but this is not considered correct usage today\n\nare same
