cyclone
cyclone meaning
A spiral cyclone symbol. It stands for hurricanes, typhoons and cyclones — which are the same weather event under three names, depending entirely on which ocean it forms in. It appears in weather and news contexts, and it is also used decoratively as a swirl, which rather undersells it.
