typhoon damage

Cyclone's destructive aftermath

The damage encompasses wind destruction, flooding, storm surge, and landslides: The typhoon damage to coastal villages was extensive.

Insurance policies and disaster relief programs often specify typhoon damage as a covered category distinct from other natural disasters.
