How does a monsoon differ from a typhoon or hurricane?

• A monsoon is a seasonal shift in wind direction

• A monsoon is a storm of winds that can range from 18-36 km/h

• Monsoons occur during both summer and winter seasons--there's a pattern

• There is no difference; they are the same and differ only in how they're called
