Bad weather of any kind often affects flights and if you are travelling across the globe, then it should be no surprise if just one country's weather system is inclement.
My flight might be delayed because of the typhoon.
To be "delayed" is to arrive late somewhere because of causes outside of your control. In this case, that would be the typhoon.

英語で"may be"と言う時は、結果が分からないことを意味します。この場合、フライトが遅れる可能性があることを伝えています。"I may be late for my flight if there is traffic."(もし渋滞があれば、フライトに間に合わないかもしれない。)
