How Do Typhoons Occur? A typhoon is a region-specific term given to a type of tropical cyclone, usually occurring within the northwestern region of the Pacific Ocean, west of the International Date Line. These same systems in other regions are referred to as either hurricanes, or more generally, tropical cyclones.
In the South Pacific and the Indian Ocean, these storms are called tropical cyclones. Typhoon is the name given to this phenomenon in the North Pacific. Hurricane Rita at its peak in the Gulf of Mexico in September 2005.urricanes/tropical cyclones cause torrential rain. As a tropical storm approaches land, it also pushes a wall of water called a storm surge onto the shore. Flooding results, which can go inland for several miles.
