Forum:2013 Pacific hurricane season/October

October
Yawn...well, here's EPac's last month to get a major (unless we pull a 2011 and get a Kenneth-like storm in November). Ryan1000 01:40, October 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * Oh, and ACEwise, we're 50% of where we otherwise should be. Well, Atlantic is doing worse, 70% below average. Ryan1000 23:48, October 1, 2013 (UTC)


 * According to the NHC's September summary for this year's EPAC season, we are now the first hurricane season since 2003 to make it to October without a major hurricane. Wow. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:42, October 2, 2013 (UTC)

AOI:South of Mexico
Another one...10% for 2 days and 20% for 5. I doubt it'll develop, due to limited favorable conditions ahead of it. And even if it does, I hope we get a major out of this, and not another fail. Ryan1000 17:16, October 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * I seriously doubt we will see anything come out of this AOI, but if it ever does develop, then it will be yet another fail. It's not going to become a major, that's for sure.Steven09876 T 23:00, October 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * If it develop because it might it will be another td or mid grade ts.I am sorry Ryan but models are not showing a favorable enviroment in the Epac for the next 10 to 11 days.I doubt we get a major now the Epac door is cloosing.We might get a Kenneth but with 2013 style I doubt it.Allanjeffs 19:55, October 4, 2013 (UTC)


 * It's up to 20% (in the next 48 hours). This has been lingering over the past few days without much development, and I don't think we will see Narda from this. Steven09876 T 17:40, October 5, 2013 (UTC)

93E.INVEST
This AOI has been invested. For the next five days, it now has a 40% chance of becoming tropical. It also looks much better organized. Andrew Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:23, October 6, 2013 (UTC)

Another fail that will probably only reach ts status and then weaken.Allanjeffs 15:04, October 6, 2013 (UTC)

Up to 60% here comes Narda.Allanjeffs 18:22, October 6, 2013 (UTC)

Woot! Expected to be a TS only?!!? Well, a Kenneth-y style path is projected tho :o Grape jelly and sour cream on spicy tortillas are the best.  20:43, October 6, 2013 (UTC)

Here comes Narda..or should I say, Nada. Ryan1000 20:47, October 6, 2013 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Geez Liz, is all that format text really necessary? Anyway, this storm is officially TD 14-E per NHC. 30 kts/1007 mbar per the debut advisory. The forecast peak is higher than I expected, at 60 kts. I doubt we'll see our first Western Hemisphere major from future Narda, but the EPAC season's eighth hurricane might not be so out of the question after all. Then again, this is 2013... --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 20:48, October 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * Lol, I was just feeling full of beans today! Talking about beans, I can find many words that rhyme with bean! Lean, mean, bean, spleen, unclean. Anyway, I'm pretty sure the NadaNadaNadaCane will attain at least a C1. I think this will be a 2013 surprise (Nadacane will think this is 2011 btw) and bounce as a MASSIVE, I mean MASSIVE C3. JMO though! Pinkie pie eg sigpic.png Grape jelly and sour cream on spicy tortillas are the best. 20:51, October 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * Our eight hurricane of the season will form from this,but don`t expèct nothing more than a cat 1 or 2 at most.Allanjeffs 21:14, October 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * The NHC take this depression to 60 knots (70 mph). For all you know, the depression could easily blow up, but becoming a hurricane should be decent enough. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  21:18, October 6, 2013 (UTC)

Tropical Storm Narda
Should reach hurricane strength, continuing the trend of C1 spam.-- Isaac829 E-Mail  02:38, October 7, 2013 (UTC)

Don`t understand you Steven?Manuel was a cat 1 Narda should be a cat 1 too.Allanjeffs 04:03, October 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Isaac, considering the fact that we have only had 9 hurricanes between both the EPAC and Atlantic so far this year, and it was a month-long barrage of weak TSs between Henriette and Manuel, you should be more grateful than that. Anyway, Narda is up to 40 kts/1003 mbar and is expected to peak at 70 kts. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 10:46, October 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * NADACANE IS GONNA BE 85MPH WOOOOO Nadaberto, much? Let the hurricane shipping begin... Narda nada whatever you call it (lol) is the humberto of the pacific. NardaXHumberto lol. Pinkie pie eg sigpic.png Isn't it weird that pinapples never wear bikinis? NOT REALLY! 20:03, October 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Narda is at 55 kts/998 mbar right now. Forecast to peak at 75 kts, as Liz stated above. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 20:09, October 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Dry air is entering Narda this might cause some complications.Allanjeffs 20:30, October 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, hopefully it can make it to a hurricane. If Narda becomes a 'cane, it'll make for 8 hurricanes in EPac, which is pretty near-normal, but still no majors. We typically have 5 per year in the EPac, 3 or 4 by this time of year. Ryan1000 21:47, October 7, 2013 (UTC)


 * Still at 55 kts/998 mbar per ATCF. I predict that Narda will peak here. That's what we get for putting our faith in a 2013 storm, guys... --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 01:32, October 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Dry air and stable air have reach Narda sooner than thought.Allanjeffs 12:41, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

 * Lol that NHC discussion post is pretty funny XD. Narda and Nada actually rhyme! But anyway, Narda was yet another failure that went 2013 style on us. We all thought this would become a hurricane at first, but now its weakening rapidly due to unfavorable conditions without ever becoming a hurricane. When will the Atlantic and the EPac stop feeding us all these little epic failure TS storms? I want another hurricane, for once. Especially in the Atlantic. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 23:27, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

94E.INVEST
20% for 2 days and 60% for 5. Looks like a prime one to explode if conditions remain favorable...major hurricane Octave anyone? (well, hopefully...) Ryan1000 20:17, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

I hope so! Octave better end his 12-year wait well. Andrew Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  21:29, October 8, 2013 (UTC)

This might be the last or one of the last time that the Epac can redeem itself.Allanjeffs 22:00, October 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * It might be now or never for EPac to get a major, I guess...If Octave-to be doesn't make it, I doubt we'll see a major at all here. Ryan1000 22:05, October 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Future-Octave looks like one of the best chances for a major so far this season. It is expected to enter increasingly favorable conditions, and by the end of the week, conditions might be prime for this AOI (or Octave) to explode. Major hurricane Octave anyone? Hopefully. We could see something big from this in the long term, and possibly our first (and most likely the only) major hurricane. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 23:34, October 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Favorable how? Right now I'm skeptical simply because it's 2013... --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 00:10, October 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * A lot of the models take this into Baja California in a few days. Maybe we don't want this to explode...


 * ...what the hell am I even saying?! Of course we want this to explode! We just want this to pull a Rick '09 and weaken until it's almost nothing before landfall, that's all. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 20:30, October 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * We don't want this to explode because we want to keep the idea of 2013 being the worst year ever. If the EPAC has a majorless season that'd be pretty good testament to how awful it's been. Yqt1001 (talk) 20:36, October 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * 2013 will already be remember by many in Mexico because of Manuel.I don`t want this to explode and I am sorry Dylan I really want to this year without a major.Allanjeffs 20:52, October 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * hereeee comes Octave!! im kinda imagining this storm to be like jova two years ago with a touch of RickRoll'09. Get it?!?! >:D Pinkie pie eg sigpic.png Rubber bands last longer when they are refrigerated. 23:28, October 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * We've had 7 hurricanes thus far this year, "Octave" would be the 8th, hence it's prefix. Might not be a mjaor though. Ryan1000 00:12, October 10, 2013 (UTC)


 * 99% of the models bring it at high-end ts or mid grade cat 1,-_- lol XD.not a major I see unless it does explosive intensification.Allanjeffs 00:18, October 10, 2013 (UTC)


 * I predict a peak of 45 kts. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 00:36, October 10, 2013 (UTC)


 * It's down to 50% (48 hours) and 60% (5 days). While conditions remain favorable, this AOI is struggling. I don't think we will even see a hurricane out of this, and Dylan's prediction might come true. I predict a peak of around 50 kts. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 22:22, October 10, 2013 (UTC)

(←)Now this invest should have a hard time even let alone getting numbered. It's chances of formation have fallen to 50% chance of developing. At the rate our season is going, we will be the third EPac season in history since the start of the satellite era in 1971 without a major, after 1977 and 2003. Andrew Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:54, October 12, 2013 (UTC)


 * Bam! A tropical depression might come after all! There is a 60% chance of formation in the next two and five days as organization improves. The window is small, but this invest can do it. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  19:55, October 12, 2013 (UTC)

Its here.Allanjeffs 02:39, October 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Currently at 30 knots (35 mph, 55 km/h)/1003 mbar (hPa; 29.68 inHg), this depression is forecast to become 40 knots (45 mph) of failure per the NHC. Baja California could get something, but it will not be very significant. Man, 17 tropical storms and no major hurricanes? This is 1968 all over again! Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  02:51, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Tropical Storm Octave
Now named, but...won't get much stronger. Ryan1000 10:53, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

At 40 knots (45 mph, 75 km/h)/1002 mbar (hPa; 29.59 inHg), Octave should reach 45 knots (50 mph) per the NHC. If it gets any stronger, Baja California might need to watch out. Andrew Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  13:29, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Octave is here! We have yet another epic fail. C'mon EPac, stop it with the failings, and produce another hurricane for once! <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 22:04, October 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * I'll take back what I said above, since Octave is now up to 65 mph! That was unexpected. In fact, it now even has an outside shot at hurricane status now. Looks like it won't be an epic fail after all! <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 22:58, October 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Despite Octave's jump to 55 knots (65 mph, 100 km/h)/995 mbar (hPa; 29.38 inHg) and developing an eye feature, the "eye" is so tinted it is disturbing any further progress of development. Sorry, Steven, Octave only has ~12 more hours to become a hurricane at all before shear takes over. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  23:36, October 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Looks like EPac is trying to, well, "not suck", which is better than failing, I'll say. Ryan1000 00:06, October 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * And the intensity plunges to 35 kts. Next! --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 03:05, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

Tropical Depression Octave
Moving inland and dying. Most of Octave's moisture is being sheared away into upper Mexico and Texas. It shouldn't last much longer from here on out. Ryan1000 11:07, October 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * To sum it up, Octave was a cross-breed between Ivo, Juliette, and Kiko. It did come close to hurricane intensity, however. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:10, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

Post-Tropical Cyclone Octave

 * Unfortunately, Octave didn't become a hurricane. But it did bring some rain to Baja, so I'll say that it wasn't a complete fail (unlike Priscilla, which is such an epic fail). Hats off to Octave. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 00:05, October 16, 2013 (UTC)

Tropical Storm Priscilla
She is here and to fail,even though I like the name.Allanjeffs 12:37, October 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * Not bad, this'll make for 18 named storms (counting the two in CPac), but still no major hurricanes. Ryan1000 00:06, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

And the fail train continues...16 named storms, 7 hurricanes but no majors. Again Allan, if the headers are sticking out like that, switch the editing format from visual mode to source mode to put it at the front of the page. Ryan1000 17:40, October 14, 2013 (UTC)

Haha sorry Ryan I forgot will do it next ime :P.Allanjeffs 20:28, October 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * No prob, I can always fix it anyhow. At least the EPac had a decent number of named storms this year, the lackluster intensity of those storms is what makes it kinda boring though. But 2013 EPac season was definitely memorable, especially with Manuel swamping parts of Mexico and to a lesser extent, Flossie giving Hawaii a scare for the first time in two decades. Ryan1000 22:11, October 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * It's weakening already, the hell? --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 03:04, October 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * Manuel was the only memorable thing,Priscilla was such a fail it has now start to weaken and will probably die tomorrow.2013 Atlantic and Epac has been really boring without majors to track.Almost the same as the Atlantic and the Epac should start to quiet down first than the Atlantic.If we don`t have another Kenneth it looks like the Epac will end without a major.Allanjeffs 03:30, October 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * We will be having an El Nino next year so EPac will most likely have a major to track by then, but the Atlantic might see another down year, unless it pulls a 1972, 1983, 1992, 1994 and gets a notable storm (or a 2004, unlikely though). Ryan1000 11:07, October 15, 2013 (UTC)\


 * Priscilla is the epic fail. It is only at 35 knots (40 mph, 65 km/h)/1004 mbar (hPa; 29.65 inHg) and should die from here on out. At least it looks somewhat somewhat decent on satellite imagery. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:13, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

Tropical Depression Priscilla
Another fish, another fail... Ryan1000 23:01, October 15, 2013 (UTC)

Bye Priscilla. God, you were such an ' EPIC FAIL!!! 'I'm soo tired of these storms that do nothing but steal great and wonderful names from the list, and Priscilla was one of these. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 00:10, October 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * Priscilla looks well-defined on satellite imagery, but it should degenerate in 36 hours. Hey, I'm fine with Priscilla failing miserably. The name Raymond is what I am worried about. The past two Raymond's were Category 4 hurricanes. If that trend bucks this year (Yeah, Ray, good luck even becoming a hurricane! Wait until 2019!), I will give up on the EPAC. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:38, October 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * If anyone looks at the NOAA satellites for Priscilla, you will find a very sad excuse of a tropical cyclone. The depression is at 25 knots (30 mph, 45 km/h)/1008 mbar (hPa; 29.77 inHg) and is expected to degenerate in 24 hours. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  01:15, October 17, 2013 (UTC)

AOI.South of Guatemala
Another one on the TWO. This is at 0% for now, but conditions could improve later on, and it's at 30% for 5 days. Raymond anyone? Ryan1000 18:56, October 17, 2013 (UTC)

Yep will probably be Raymond but nothing that will be strong.Allanjeffs 20:42, October 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * I also think this will become Raymond. Well, according to Andrew's post above, the past two Raymond's were Category 4s. I hope that this year's "Raymond" becomes a major so it can continue the streak (as long as it doesn't affect land), but since this is 2013 I doubt that will happen. I predict this invest will peak at minimal hurricane strength (around 80 mph). <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 23:37, October 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * Some slow development of this AOI is possible in the next several days. However, I want something decent from this system. In my opinion, the name Raymond is probably the most powerful name of this EPAC naming list. It was the name of a rare Hawaii-landfalling hurricane which peaked as a 125 knot Category 4 in 1983 and a Baja California landfaller in 1989 that also became a 125 knot Category 4 hurricane. Hopefully, Raymond can continue his luck and become a 125 knot system again, but he's going to have a real tough time this year doing so. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  00:30, October 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * Sorry folks, but since this is 2013, I'd say that Raymond will probably peak as a mid-grade TS. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 01:31, October 18, 2013 (UTC)

96E.INVEST
Here comes Raymond but will be at most just a mid cat 1 but it might very well be a mid grade ts or strong ts like Octave as conditions have decay in the Epac.This is a strong name so I hope it doesn`t fail but there is always a first time.Allanjeffs 05:03, October 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * Cat 1 and no more 80for peak or maybe 85mph. This was before the post above so check that one to see my thoughts in what is going to be Raymond.Allanjeffs 02:42, October 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * I don't expect this to intensify much knowing how this year as a whole has gone, but I hope it does get very strong so we finally have something good to track. Ryan1000 15:02, October 18, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, conditions should support some development of this invest, but I very highly doubt it will become the 125 knot Category 4 hurricane I want.

I hope this one intensifies quickly so we can finally get something good to watch, but, well, this is 2013. Just about every other storm this year sucked, wouldn't be surprised if this one gets cursed to die too. Atlantic remains silent, it has a slight chance of making something big in the Western Caribbean in the next two weeks, but none of the reliable models predict anything will form by the next week in ATL. Ryan1000 12:09, October 19, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, even though the invest continues to produce disorganized showers and thunderstorms, conditions are now conductive for a tropical depression to form in the coming days. Invest 96E now has a 60% chance of becoming tropical in the next 48 hours and an 80% chance in the next five days. It looks like Mother Nature will be nice enough for Raymond to continue his very powerful hurricane streak. Who knows? Maybe this could repeat itself if Raymond is excited enough to intensify and Mother Nature gives him the right conditions! Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  13:54, October 19, 2013 (UTC)

Tropical Depression Seventeen
Not up on NHC yet, but it has been renumbered according to Allan, and it is now a depression. Now that it looks more likely to make landfall, the people in Mexico need to prepare, as it could get as strong as major hurricane status before landfall. I'm still thinking we will see a Category 1 or 2 hurricane, but there might be an outside shot at major status.

While the center of Raymond currently isn't forecast to cross the coast, it's expected to stall just offshore of Guerrero, which was severely impacted by Manuel last month.

 * A hurricane watch/tropical storm warning is in effect for Acapulco to Lazaro Cardenas. Luckily, Raymond should turn away from land and reach 85 knots. What did I tell you? I knew Raymond would become a hurricane because he is cursed into becoming a Category 4! If it turns away from Mexico, we can root for a strong system, and I say will reach a peak intensity of 125 knots! Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  00:08, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

 * Surprisingly enough, the GFS (which is typically the more bullish of the two global models) wants to kill this thing as it moves northwest slowly. The Euro is much more aggressive with Raymond and they make it a 952 mbar storm in several days, but by then heading well out to sea. Even though Raymond is not expected to make landfall, coastal areas between Acapulco and Zihuatenejo could see anywhere from 5 inches of rain, to as high as 18 inches in isolated areas. So coastal flooding will be a concern with Raymond given it's slow movement near the southern Mexico coastline, regardless if it moves ashore. Ryan1000 01:08, October 21, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, I thought we were going to end 2013 with no majors in the whole hemisphere, but with Raymond's presentation right now, I'd not be shocked if he was a major hurricane as early as midday Monday. Check out the VERY impressive eye developing (well, impressive for its current barely-a-hurricane stats) October sure seems to be an odd month! TheMagnificentEquusStorm (talk) 02:43, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

Category 2 strength at 85 kts/975 mbar per the 8pm advisory, and it's now forecast to become the first major hurricane of the season within 12 hours from now, peaking at 110 kts before weakening. 24 hours of existence and while it's still got 10 kts to go to topple Henriette as the season's windspeed champion, its slightly lower pressure makes it the season's most intense storm nonetheless. A 25-kt increase in winds over the course of 6 hours is amazing for any storm, but I can't recall it ever being pulled off by a WHEM storm as young as Raymond. In the latest NHC discussion, Brown described the rate of Raymond's intensification as "astounding." I have to say that I agree with him. Raymond seems to be ignoring the fact that it's 2013 and has decided to act like a 2011 storm instead. I don't know what all this is a testament to more: Raymond's rapid intensification, or the season's pathetic nature up until this point. Mexico better watch out, things could get ugly if Raymond makes landfall. "We Are Young" certainly seems to be Raymond's anthem for the evening: "Tonight, we are young, so we'll set the world on fire so we'll burn brighter than the sun..." --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 02:59, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

<span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;">Raymond wants to continue the curse of cat 4.The past 2 Raymonds had become cat 4 and the strongest system of their seasons This curse might continue as well.

Major Hurricane Raymond
So this happened. 120/955 at 2am PDT advisory, our first major of the season in the East Pacific. TheMagnificentEquusStorm (talk) 08:59, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

This was never the way I expected our season's first major hurricane. Its winds are already at 105 knots (195 km/h), and the fact it is stalling south of Mexico could cause even more intensification. A hurricane warning is now in effect for Tecpan de Galena to Lazaro Cardenas. As Mexico bears down, I just want to mention how in the world I knew Raymond's intensification was going to happen. With this update, all three EPAC storms named "Raymond" have become majors, and it is not out of the blue that Raymond could become a Category 4 hurricane for the third time out of three usages. Andrew Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  11:30, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

 * Raymond is bringing heavy rain to southern Mexico, and Manuel's damage, per Dr. Masters latest post, is up to 4.2 billion dollars, along with 169 dead or missing people. That's the 3rd costliest disaster in Mexico's history, behind Karl in 2010 and Wilma in 2005. My chances on Manuel now go up to 90%, even though Mexico's track record for retirement is really bad...I think it should happen nonetheless. Ryan1000 15:09, October 21, 2013 (UTC)

 * The CPac and EPac use different naming lists and different numbers for depressions, but the WMO and NOAA don't call it "seperate from the EPac", because storms rarely form in the CPac outside of El Nino (and some neutral) seasons. NHC considers them seperate, though other agencies merge them. Ryan1000 12:48, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

Hurricane Raymond (2nd time)
Down to 90 kt, whats amazing is that it is expected to remain a hurricane for the next 5 days... Kiewii! 15:35, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

 * Looks like it'll peak as a Category 3. The NHC predicts it to weaken very slightly to a 70 mph strong tropical storm, and remain at that intensity for the rest of the forecast period!! That's pretty awesome, and Raymond will probably restrengthen to a hurricane before it goes away for good. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 23:45, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

 * Raymond seems to have adjusted to the 2013 atmosphere after teleporting from 2011 :P Raymond has been in no hurry to restrengthen, so I'm going to treat the forecast for it to regain hurricane strength with skepticism, but I still gotta tip my hat to this one, even if it's not hats off quite yet. After a plague of weak storms across the Western Hemisphere, we somehow got a last-minute major in the EPAC, keeping a pretty cool curse intact (the one of each Raymond being a major and the strongest storm of its respective season (though for 1983, it shares the throne with Kiko), as mentioned by Andrew above) and possibly setting a neat record for latest first major of an EPAC season (I won't count the 1959 Mexico hurricane because reliable EPAC records only go back to 1966, I think; also, if one wants to include the CPAC, then Dot and Patsy formed earlier in the 1959 season). Raymond is my second-favorite storm of 2013 so far, right behind Lekima. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 19:43, October 26, 2013 (UTC)

Hurricane Raymond (3rd time)
Dylan and Allan, how are your intial thoughts of writing off Raymond going? Beneath a convective canopy in Raymond's convection, microwave imagery shows an eye, and a CDO feature has recently developed. Based on a blend of various Dvorak estimates, Raymond winds have been re-upgraded to 65 knots (75 mph, 120 km/h) and its pressure has fallen again to 989 mbar (hPa; 29.21 inHg). In fact, in the next 12 to 24 hours, Raymond still has time to reach 75 knots (85 mph), as the NHC forecasts, before shear kills it for good. In the next few days, the ECMWF and GFS both take Raymond northwards as a ridge weakens. And to the ones who wrote off Raymond - Mother Nature can pull lots of good tricks. Like Humberto, Irwin, and Nadine, Raymond pulled himself back together. Never write off a system until it is completely dead (unless it is a Jerry (2007) like storm). Andrew Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  12:31, October 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Not bad, Raymond is holding on nicely. However, NHC expects shear to rapidly increase about Tuesday and it could die out by Thursday. Well, he's really nice to track, though I feel sorry for the 2 people that died in Mexico from the storm. Ryan1000 14:10, October 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, those deaths are the only bad part of Raymond. Andrew, you're right about me underestimating Raymond, it's as though it saw my and Allan's comments and decided to flip us off lol. Raymond is up to 75 kts/982 mbar and is now forecast to regain Category 2 status. It's nowhere near land this time, so let's grab the popcorn and soda, ladies and gentlemen! --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 14:51, October 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * P.S.: I think it's a stretch to say that Humberto or Irwin pulled themselves back together on the level of Nadine. Nadine reached its peak intensity during its second reign at hurricane status, near the end of its life. Neither Humberto nor Irwin exceeded 40 kts during their respective second winds (Humberto after becoming post-tropical and regenerating, and Irwin after weakening for a tropical depression for just under a day). --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 14:57, October 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Nadine lasted for more than 20 days, an EPac version of that would be something like Boris of 1984, but Irwin in 2011 also lasted a while. Anyways... Ryan1000 15:03, October 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Don't forget the refreshment. --Dylan (HurricaneMaker99) 17:57, October 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * Unbelievable. Raymond continues to rise. The eye cleared out on visible imagery, and even in the past hour, the hurricane has gained organization. As a result, the NHC has raised Raymond's intensity to 85 knots (100 mph, 160 km/h)/975 mbar (hPa; 28.79 inHg). We have a Category 2 once more! However, shear should affect the hurricane in ~12 hours. Consequently, I will be suprised if Raymond becomes a major hurricane again. Right now, I think Raymond is feeling a 2012 atmosphere. Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  21:15, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

 * Raymond has really jumped the gun here. I was expecting it to restrengthen to a hurricane, but a Category 2?! This storm is pulling tricks on us. I don't think it will restrengthen to a major, since strong shear is about to attack the system tomorrow. I also hope we will get our first Sonia in 30 years, and maybe even get a Tico before the season shuts down for good. <font color="#00A" face="High Tower Text">Steven09876 <font color="#030">T 22:57, October 27, 2013 (UTC)
