Tropical cyclone, also called typhoon or hurricane, an intense circular storm that originates over warm tropical oceans and is characterized by low atmospheric pressure, high winds, and heavy rain. Drawing energy from the sea surface and maintaining its strength as long as it remains over warm water, a tropical cyclone generates winds that exceed 119 km (74 miles) per hour. In extreme cases winds may exceed 240 km (150 miles) per hour, and gusts may surpass 320 km (200 miles) per hour. Accompanying these strong winds are torrential rains and a devastating phenomenon known as the storm surge, an elevation of the sea surface that can reach 6 metres (20 feet) above normal levels. Such a combination of high winds and water makes cyclones a serious hazard for coastal areas in tropical and subtropical areas of the world. Every year during the late summer months (July–September in the Northern Hemisphere and January–March in the Southern Hemisphere), cyclones strike regions as far apart as the Gulf Coast of North America, northwestern Australia, and eastern India and Bangladesh...

Answer:
This is an intense storm that occurs as a result of cooling tropical oceans that features reduced temperatures heavy rains as well as heavy winds. Cyclone "draws energy" from the sea to ensure its strength remains at the maximum while over the warm water. The winds that are generated by the hurricane are beyond "100 kilometers per hour". However, when they go extreme, they can go up to "240 kilometers per hour". Heavy rains sometimes accompany the strong winds.
