Ya:

5/XI/1991 TIFÓN TELMA 6000 muertos reales.
Agosto 1990 TIFÓN OLGA 1200 muertos.
Así de memoria y en pocos años tenemos 3 tifones, sin contar los dós últimos del 2013, en Filipinas que han causado una gran cantidad de muertes y destrucción.
La media de tifones será de unos 20 al año de diversas categorías, en cada uno de ellos mueren una media de 200 personas, ir multiplicando.
Haiyan es súper tifón 58º desde 1950 que alcanza una presión central de 900 mb o más bajas de los registros históricos.
Data from the national weather bureau, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration, or PAGASA, showed that Typhoon Haiyan’s intensity – measured by the wind strength at its center and the speed of gusts at landfall – Haiyan ranks at number 7 among the strongest storms ever to have hit the Philippines.
It could eventually prove to be the deadliest, with the death toll currently at more than 2,300 and mounting. But among the so-called supertyphoons— those with center winds in excess of 134 miles an hour — the title goes to Joan.
Known locally as Sening, that storm made landfall in Virac, Catanduanes province, north of the current devastation and around 236 miles south of Manila. When it hit, Joan had center winds of 171 miles per hour and gusts of 193 miles per hour, compared to Haiyan’s 147 mph.
