Tropical Storm Andres On May 16, the first tropical depression of the season formed to the southwest of
Baja California, out of a tropical disturbance that had developed during May 5 within the vicinity of Panama. During May 16 the depression gradually developed, before early the next day the National Hurricane Centre declared it a tropical storm and named it Andres. For the next 48 hours, the depression moved toward the west and then northwest in response to a weakening ridge to the northwest. On June 17, the strong shear relaxed somewhat and the exposed center moved under the deep convection again. Thus, the depression strengthened into a tropical storm about 725 mi (1,165 km) south of the southern tip of Baja California. Tropical Storm Blanca experienced limited development, reaching its peak windspeed of 60 mph (95 km/h) early on June 20. Then, the center of Blanca became exposed again and weakened into a tropical depression on June 21. Finally, it dissipated on June 22 over colder waters about 1285 mi (2,380 km) southwest of the southern tip of Baja California.
Hurricane Carlos A tropical wave moved off the coast of West Africa on June 4 showing some cyclonic curvature in the low clouds. It passed
Barbados six days later, where a low-to-mid wind shift was detected. The wave was followed by a low level wind surge which was observed in
Curaçao on June 12. Most of the shower activity associated with the wave moved westward over South America, and then over
Panama on June 14. The convection became organized and developed into Tropical Depression Three-E on June 16 while it was located 350 mi (560 km) south of
Salina Cruz. It became a tropical storm one day later. Carlos reached minimal hurricane strength on June 18. Two days later, Carlos was briefly downgraded to
tropical storm status. A strong
high pressure system forced Carlos to move over warmer waters and Carlos began to reintensify. Carlos regained hurricane status and developed a well-defined
eye and excellent upper level
outflow. On June 24, Carlos peaked at central pressure and 115 mph (185 km/h) maximum sustained winds. The hurricane then weakened when it moved west over colder waters and encountered upper-level shear. Carlos dissipated on June 27. The
National Hurricane Center received no reports of impact due to this tropical cyclone.
Hurricane Delores Delores developed from a tropical wave which moved from Africa to the Atlantic on June 7. And it was not until June 22 when it gained organization and was identified as an area of disturbed weather south of Mexico. The system immediately showed signs of rotation and it was designated Tropical Depression Four-E the same day. It was centered about south-southeast of
Manzanillo, Mexico. Then, the depression reached storm strength, and was named Delores on June 24 while 145 mi (230 km) from the coast of Mexico. It rapidly intensified to a hurricane on June 25 as it approached to the coast. However it rapidly weakened and on June 27 it was downgraded to tropical storm status as it was moving over colder waters. Its deep convection gradually diminished and its west-northwestward motion abruptly halted as the system was being sheared. It weakened to a depression on June 28 near
Socorro Island and it dissipated on June 29.
Tropical Depression Five-E A tropical disturbance south of the
Gulf of Tehuantepec became better organized on June 29 and became a tropical depression. Strengthening was very limited as the depression was approaching land. It made landfall later that day very near
Salina Cruz, Oaxaca. As it continued its west-northwest track, it dissipated inland after bringing torrential rains. Five-E caused one fatality and some significant damage. Five-E destroyed up to 118 homes, injured 500, and also caused two people to go missing.
Rainfall totals as high as in 24 hours accompanied the depression over Southern Mexico. The depression intensified further and was upgraded to Tropical Storm Enrique the next day as it became better organized. Enrique steadily intensified and by early on July 16, the
National Hurricane Center was anticipating for the system to reach
hurricane intensity. Continuing to strengthen, it reached hurricane status On July 17. However, this was for a short period of time as it developed an
eye. Due to uncertainty in the storm's intensity that day, it is possible that it could have been a hurricane earlier than originally estimated. The system persisted drifting northwestward for several days, while maintaining a well-defined, albeit weak, center of circulation. On July 27, after it passed well to the north of the
Hawaiian Islands, Enrique managed to briefly re-intensify to tropical storm status, attaining a secondary peak intensity of 50 mph (85 km/h), while completing a clockwise loop. As Enrique headed toward the
Midway Island, increased wind shear weakened the system, causing another downgrade to depression status. Located over warm waters with fair upper-level outflow, the depression intensified into Tropical Storm Fefa twelve hours after forming. On August 4, Fefa restrengthened after crossing over warmer waters, reaching a secondary peak intensity of . Increasing wind shear caused the hurricane to weaken again. Fefa crossed into the central Pacific on August 5, and weakened into a tropical storm the next day while moving toward
Hawaii. Late on August 7, Fefa weakened to a tropical depression a short distance of the island of Hawaii. Early on August 8, the depression degenerated into a
tropical wave after moving onshore. The remnants tracked west-northwestward and passed south of the Hawaiian Islands until dissipating on August 9 to the northwest of
Kauai. The remnants of Fefa produced locally strong wind gusts of up to in the islands of Hawaii and
Maui. Strong thunderstorms developed over
Mauna Kea and
Kohala on the island of Hawaii. The thunderstorms produced flash flooding in
Kohala and
Hamakua.
Lightning from the storm caused two injuries. A man in
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park was hurt when lightning struck where he was walking. A man in
Hilo was burnt when lightning moved through telephone wires. Signs of organization were evident late on August 2 when the wave was south of the
Gulf of Tehuantepec. Then, on August 4, Tropical Depression Eight-E was formed while centered 350 mi (560 km) south-southeast of
Acapulco. Despite the presence of easterly
shear, the depression gradually intensified as the center moved toward the west-northwest, paralleling the coast of Mexico. Then, it reached tropical storm strength the same day. At that time, it was centered south-southwest of Acapulco. It peaked on August 5 with a central pressure of and maximum sustained winds of while of
Manzanillo, Colima. After its peak, Guillermo weakened to tropical storm status as it began losing convection. It subsequently weakened to a tropical depression and dissipated after that on August 10.
Tropical Storm Hilda Satellite imagery showed a convective area with some cyclonic turning in connection with a tropical wave over Africa on July 22. The convection gradually diminished as the system moved west-southwest into the Atlantic. On July 31, the wave passed south of
Trinidad, where a low-level wind shift was detected. For the next couple of days, this system passed over
Venezuela and
Colombia. Then it crossed into the Pacific basin. It was not until August 6, while it was south of
Guatemala, when the convection became organized. Then, the wave strengthened into a tropical depression about 230 mi (370 km/h) south-southwest of
Acapulco, on August 8. The system intensified further and became Tropical Storm Hilda August 9. The storm reached its peak intensity on August 11 with estimated maximum winds and a pressure of . The tropical storm moved on a general west-northwest track for the next couple of days and then turned toward the north on August 13 as it was under the influence of an upper level
trough. Later on that day, tropical storm force winds were reported on
Guadalupe Island as the center of Hilda was located about from the island. Hilda gradually weakened over cool waters but maintained a rather large level of circulation. This caused its dissipation to be slower than normal. Tropical Depression Hilda dissipated on August 14. It large remnant circulation continued northwards and eventually passed over California.
Tropical Depression Ten-E A tropical disturbance southwest of
Manzanillo, Colima became a tropical depression on September 12 when its
convection became persistent around a newly formed center of circulation. Conditions were not favorable for development because of strong wind shear environment caused by a
trough. The depression took a northward track and dissipated on September 13 as it was being sheared just south of the
Gulf of California. Tropical Depression Ten-E brought heavy
showers to parts of Mexico. There were no reported deaths or damages. The storm led to tropical storm warnings across portions of southwestern Mexico. Tropical Storm Ignacio dropped heavy rains over a large area of Mexico. The highest amount recorded was at Pasa de San Antonio. Ten people died in
Guerrero due to flash flooding. The storm also caused street flooding in
Acapulco. The remnants of the storm caused several dams to burst in the state of
Chihuahua, leaving 10,000 people homeless and killing another 13. Overall, 40 people were injured. Continuing to strengthen, the depression became a tropical storm on September 21. The tropical storm then headed towards the northwest. Development was rapid, especially after September 22 as a banding type
eye was forming. Further rapid development took place by the following day and the
maximum sustained winds increased to its peak of by the afternoon of September 23. Jimena maintained itself as a powerful hurricane for three days, moving west until September 26, when it turned toward the west-northwest. Jimena began to weaken on September 27. A northwestward movement commenced on September 29 in response to a large upper-level trough which developed in its northwest. It continued to weaken and on September 30 it regained tropical storm intensity before becoming downgraded to a depression. On October 2, Jimena dissipated as a tropical cyclone.
Hurricane Kevin Kevin formed from a westward-moving tropical wave which emerged from the northwest coast of Africa on September 11. The wave crossed into the Pacific basin on September 21 with no signs of development. Cloudiness and convection became better organized on the first hours of September 24, becoming Tropical Depression Thirteen-E the next day as it was located about southeast of
Acapulco. Then the depression moved toward the west. The banding pattern became more pronounced and the depression was upgraded to Tropical Storm Kevin later that day, being centered about 316 mi (509 km) south-southeast of Acapulco. The convective banding increased for the next 24 hours and Kevin strengthened to hurricane status on September 26, while south-southwest of Acapulco. Kevin continued to strengthen and an eye intermittently appeared on September 27 and 28. However, a well-defined eye reappeared on satellite imagery in the system and Kevin re-intensified to a low-end Category 3 hurricane with maximum winds of and a minimum pressure of on October 7. But this was short-lived and on October 8 the hurricane began to weaken again and on October 9 it had entered into the Central Pacific basin as a waning
Category 1 hurricane. After this crossing, it was subsequently downgraded to storm strength the same day and on October 11, to a depression. It dissipated as a tropical cyclone that same day. The remnant circulation did persist a while longer as it slowly drifted north to finally lose its identity late on October 14. The tropical depression moved toward the northwest while strengthening and became
Tropical Storm Linda within 12 hours. As Linda then drifted to the north it was upgraded to a hurricane on October 5. Then, the hurricane reached its estimated peak intensity of and a minimum central pressure of that same day. Linda began to weaken as it was following Kevin's track and entered to colder waters. Linda turned the west-northwest and passed from
Socorro Island, where it caused sustained winds on October 7. Later that day, Linda weakened to a
tropical storm. On October 9, as Linda was following Kevin's track, the cyclone continued to weaken and was downgraded to a depression, although deep convection continued to intermittently appear. Finally, on early October 14, Linda dissipated. There were no reported casualties or damages from Linda. On October 8, Marty was threatening enough to prompt the Mexican government to issue a
tropical storm watch from
Manzanillo to
Acapulco. The warning was dropped on October 9 when Marty moved away. There were no associated casualties or damages with this tropical cyclone.
Hurricane Nora On November 7, an area of convection associated with a tropical wave developed into a tropical depression, while located about to the southeast of Acapulco, Mexico. During that day the depression moved towards the northwest, intensified into a tropical storm and was named Nora later that day. On the next day, the storm gradually intensified further while temporarily moving towards the west, due to the flow field around a strengthening high pressure system located to the north of Nora. On November 9, Nora. It peaked as a Category 2 hurricane on November 10. A large
trough moved in from the west and formed a
low. Shear increased and disrupted Nora's convection. The low also caused an abrupt change of course to the northeast. Nora weakened to a depression on November 11 and dissipated the next day. Nora's remnants continued to the northeast, showing brief flare-ups of convection. No deaths or damage were reported to have occurred in association with Nora, despite probable rainfall totals of around within the Mexican states of Sinaloa and Nayarit. ==Storm names==
