The 2013 Typhoon Haiyan meme, often referred to as the Super Typhoon Yolanda meme, primarily uses satellite imagery and news footage to illustrate the overwhelming scale of one of the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded. In online communities, these images are frequently used to depict overwhelming power, sudden change, or to compare historical weather events. While rooted in a serious natural disaster, the visual data has become a staple for educational content and discussions surrounding climate intensity, often paired with text highlighting the sheer magnitude of the storm's reach across the Pacific and its impact on the Philippines.
