What is a typhoon?
A typhoon is a very serious storm.
It brings very strong winds and heavy rainfall. The winds often blow the sea onto the land. This can wash away houses and cars.
Typhoons cause a lot of damage. People are often injured and killed by the effects of typhoons.
This is what a typhoon looks like from space…
…and this is what it was like on the ground
What would you take with you?
