Tropical cyclones are characterised by very high wind speeds, heavy rainfall, and storm surges - short-term rises to sea-levels. This often causes widespread damage and flooding. Hurricanes can be ...
Typhoon Gaemi's wind speeds were around 9 mph more intense and its rainfall up to 14% higher as a result of warmer sea temperatures, according to scientists in a report from World Weather ...
Typhoon Usagi, known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Ofel, was a powerful tropical cyclone that impacted the Philippines before later affecting Taiwan in early November 2024. It was the fifth of six consecutive tropical cyclones that impacted the Philippines within a span of four weeks, following Tropical Storm Trami and Typhoons Kong-rey ...
The extraordinary number of typhoons that pummeled the Philippines in November were fueled by conditions that are now almost twice as likely due to the climate crisis, a new study has found.. The ...
Tropical cyclones regularly affect the coastlines of most of Earth's major bodies of water along the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans.

Out of all these tropical cyclones, Typhoon Tip had the lowest atmospheric pressure measured in a tropical cyclone, at 870 mbar (25.69 inHg). It is the third image in the first row. This is a list of the most intense tropical cyclones as measured by minimum atmospheric pressure at sea level.
Previous studies have found that higher average global temperatures, due to emissions of greenhouse gasses, are causing more intense storms, because warmer weather causes more evaporation. Other ...
