Definitions of various names for tropical cyclones:

Hurricane: A tropical cyclonic storm having minimum winds of 74 mph (64 knots, 119 km/h). Hurricanes occur in the North Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, or in the eastern North Pacific off the west coast of Mexico, and sometimes move into temperate latitudes. Variant names given to the same type of storm in other areas of the world include typhoon (western Pacific, eastern Asia), cyclone (Indian Ocean), willy willy (Australia), and baguio (China Sea).
Typhoon: The name for a tropical cyclone with sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots, 119 km/h) or greater in the western North Pacific Ocean. This same tropical cyclone is known as a hurricane in the eastern North Pacific and North Atlantic Ocean, and as a cyclone in the Indian Ocean.
Tropical Cyclone: A general term for all cyclone circulations originating over tropical waters, or the more formal name for hurricanes (Atlantic and Eastern Pacific) or typhoons (Western Pacific and Indian Oceans).
"Cyclone" is sometimes used as a colloquial term for "tornado". For such usage see the tornadoes, waterspouts, and dust devils page.

¹"Cyclone" is sometimes used as a colloquial term for "tornado". For such usage see the tornadoes, waterspouts, and dust devils page.
²Card cut from October page of Kniga International 1986 space calendar.
³The typhoon (warning) tower was used as a signal to inform fishermen and other mariners when they could sail into or out of the port.
⁴The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 rating based on a hurricane's sustained wind speed. Category 3 and higher hurricanes are considered major hurricanes because of their potential for significant loss of life and property damage. Category 1 and 2 storms, while weaker, can still be dangerous. For more detail see the Saffir-Simpson wind scale.
⁵Hurricane David struck Dominica on 29 August 1979 as a Category 4 hurricane shortly after the time of the image in Barbados.555. It was the strongest hurricane ever to hit Dominica (since records began in 1851) until the Category 5 Hurricane Maria struck the island on 18 September 2017.
⁶Although a hurricane eye appears to be depicted, hurricanes probably never occur in Ghana in Western Africa!
