Typhoon Haiyan, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Yolanda and as Typhoon No. 14 in Vietnam, was one of the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded. In early November 2013, the storm devastated parts of Southeast Asia, especially the Philippines, where at least 6,300 people died. The storm also affected Micronesia, Palau, Vietnam, Taiwan, and China.
