Typhoons are tropical cyclones and are classified differently in various countries. Here's how Japan classifies typhoons:

A severe tropical storm is designated as a tropical cyclone when it reaches wind speeds of 64 knots (119km/h; 74mph). If a tropical cyclone intensify further and reaches wind speeds of 90 knots (170km/h; 100mph), it will be classified as an intense tropical cyclone. A very intense tropical cyclone is the highest category on the South-West Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclone scale, and has winds of over 115 knots (213km/h; 132mph). [22] [23] BBC News. 2019a.

The deadly storm, one of the strongest to hit the country in years, left a trail of destruction, triggering the evacuation of more than 30,000 people from Beijing, and causing severe flooding in the capital and Fujian. The country has been hit by heavy rain and flooding over the past two months, including that brought by Typhoon Doksuri at the end of July. How typhoons are named". USA Today. 2007-11-01. Archived from the original on 2008-09-30 . Retrieved 2008-08-18. Moving up the eastern coast of Japan’s main island, Honshu, and impacting eight prefectures across the island, Typhoon Hagibis was the worst storm to hit the country in 60 years with torrential rain and wind speeds of 225kph (140mph) – equivalent to a Category 2 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale (BBC News, 2019a; BBC News, 2019b; Watchers, 2019). Hagibis underwent the most rapid intensification of any tropical cyclone in the western Pacific in at least 23 years, becoming a major hurricane-level typhoon in just six hours (Watchers, 2019). It follows Typhoon Faxai which hit Japan last month.

According to the statistics of the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, from 1950 to 2022, the Northwest Pacific generated an average of 26.5 named tropical cyclones each year, of which an average of 16.6 reached typhoon standard or above as defined by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center.

Available at: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/12/world/asia/japan-typhoon-hagibis-dead.html [14 October 2019] Typhoon Hagibis carried with it a large volume of warm moisture, resulting in unprecedented rainfall across a third of Japan (Figure 1). In some areas, it was reported that approximately 30-40% of annual rainfall fell within 24 to 48 hours (Yotsumoto, 2019).
