How is a typhoon named?

The internationally unified naming method for typhoons is that colleagues in neighboring countries and regions affected by tropical cyclones first make a naming table, and then recycle it year after year in sequence.

The naming table * * * has a total of 140 names, which are provided by the Asia-Pacific region 14 member countries and regions of the World Meteorological Organization, namely Cambodia, Chinese mainland, North Korea, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Laos, China, Macau, Malaysia, Micronesia, the Philippines, South Korea, Thailand, the United States and Vietnam for convenience. 14 members put forward 140 typhoon names, and each country and region put forward 10 names.

Typhoons are often named after "tenderness", most of which are elegant and peaceful. For example, Nida is the name of a lady in Thailand. Such as jasmine, rose and other flower names. On the one hand, it is expected that the losses caused by typhoons will be less. On the one hand, because the arrival of the typhoon will bring abundant rain, alleviate the local drought to a great extent and change the local high temperature phenomenon, which is not a complete "great evil".
