Forum:2011 Pacific hurricane season

Welcome
Here's 2011! I believe we could get an El Nino this year, so I'm thinking an above-average season. Anyone have specific calls? Just like I did with the Atlantic hurricane season, the /Betting pools/ are here, too! Ryan1000 21:18, January 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * I guess I'll go with 17-9-4 (named-hurricanes-major) Yqt1001 02:18, February 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think we will have 14-19 storms, 7-10 hurricanes, 4-6 majors, and I'm not sure about cat. 5's; we've had one here for two straight years; that's a record as it is, and saying we'll have another one for 3 straight years is a bit too generous for the EPac IMO.

 * And it is officially hurricane season! yay! YE Tropical Cyclone  00:07, May 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * It has been cyclone season in the SHem Forum beforehand, but anyways, happy hurricane season! Adrian will be on our hands likely in the next week or two. Then, we'll get many more storms from there. Unlike 2010, an El Nino could happen this year, so an active season could be on our way! Ryan1000 12:54, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

AOI: Gulf of Tehuantepec
Has not been invested, but an area of disturbed weather has formed. NHC has 10% on it. Let's keep watch on this system, may be our Fernanda. CobraStrike (t)(b)(c) 00:49, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * Now it's up to 20%. If this thing becomes a hurricane, it will tie 1966 for the all-time record of hurricanes since the start of the season. Ryan1000 07:47, August 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, if the AOI somehow manages to reach hurricane strength, it would be the earliest date for a season's sixth hurricane since 1992's Georgette, which reached that strength on July 16, 1992. Hurricane Andrew (aka User: Andrew444) 17:04, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

97E.INVEST
I'm seeing this thing as Invest 97 on Wunderground, so I think this has been invest'd? Anyway, most of the models are taking this W/WNW-ward, though we have an outlier in BAMD, which predicts this thing to go as far south as near 5°N! --HurricaneMaker99 17:29, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

 * The wave is now at 70% chance of formation. Looks like Fernanda is coming soon! If it does what the IVCN says, than welcome to the 6th named storm and 6th hurricane of the year!
 * Actually, Tropical Storm Fernanda is likely, but not Hurricane Fernanda because 97E is really close to Hurricane Eugene. Hurricane Andrew (aka User: Andrew444) 22:20, August 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * That should not be a problem since Eugene is going faster than Fernanda. YE Tropical Cyclone  22:37, August 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * True. In the semi-long term, 15 kts will easily outrun a system moving 5 or even 10 kts. Besides, Eugene is moving WNW, so it should get its butt out of here soon. CobraStrike (t)(b)(c) 22:51, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

AOI:Off Central America
And another wave comes in the EPac. It is slowly heading westward and it may become Fernanda in the long future, and if it becomes a hurricane, we will tie 1966 for the record number of consecutive hurricanes since the start of the season. Currently it's only at 10% however. Ryan1000 23:52, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

 * I don't think this AOI is going to become a hurricane. Development is expected to be slow, and 10% (according to the NHC) at this far west in the basin isn't promising. We'll have to wait and see on this one. Suprise11 18:39, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

 * YE, this might be too much to ask, but could you please send some hurricanes to the ATL? Preferably out to sea, but I've had enough of watching these storms become category 4 hurricanes in 12 hours and watching the ATL storms struggle to maintain their convection...

 * Personally, I would not have upgraded it into a hurricane. While I do see the data pointed out by the NHC, I would have put it at 60 kts on the following reasons: SAB (SSD) was still at T3.5, UW-CIMMS was still at T3.3, and while data T's were at 4.0, instinct and final T #'s don't really suggest 65 kts (more like a compromise of 60 kts). I would have waited for the next m-wave pass to see whether the eye has strengthened or organized at least slightly... but, that's just my opinion. But, that doesn't really matter right now, as it would eventually (or is currently) reach hurricane status. <font color="Blue">Darren 23 Edits 02:55, August 18, 2011 (UTC)

 * Gah, who cares, Greg would have been a 'cane anyways, and keep in mind Fernanda isn't quite done yet; it still could briefly become a hurricane before dying down. It(Fernanda) is now up to 60 mph and Greg's a minimal cat 1. I wouldn't be surprised if Greg takes advantage of the favorable conditions ahead of it a bit and explodes like Eugene and Adrian did earlier this season. We'll wait and see about that though.

I still come on this forum from time to time, especially since none of the NAtl storms as of yet ae hurricanes, and we have had 6 thus far here. I think everyone is a bit distracted by the NAtl, but nothing has been interesting as of yet, except for Irene, but I don't know if it will be a re-Emily or a re-Gordon. We'll see about that. Greg is gone, and a new AOI has formed south of Mexico now, which could become Hilary if it gets its act together enough. Except for Beatriz, everything thus far in EPac has been a fish. I'll be on the NAtl forum for some time, but I won't abandon ths forum doing so. Ryan1000 23:51, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Well, all of the storms in NAtl are just pathetic of yet. Franklin spun fish for 30 hours and Gert won't hit Bermuda too hard, plus 92L is rather close to Gert and if that wave becomes Harvey it likely won't affect land anyways. This wave is future hurricane Fernanda in my book, and we should pay some attention here since the Atlantic hasn't been interesting as of yet. Sure we had a lot of storms thus far in NAtl but most of them were weak, short-lived, and remained at sea. We still haven't had any giant U.S. major hurricanes as of yet, but I fear we will indeed have one coming at some point in this season. Ryan1000 21:02, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

40 knt per RBT. YE <font color="#66666">Tropical <font color="#66666">Cyclone  14:20, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Yay! The sixth tropical storm of the season! And if you didn't know, Fernanda has made history. This is the tenth time Fernanda has been used to name a tropical cyclone. In other words, Fernanda now ties Estelle as the most frequently used name in EPAC history, and also ties with Estelle and Arlene as the most frequently used name in W. Hem. history. Hurricane Andrew (444) 17:01, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Where is everyone?! Since I last posted, Fernanda is up to 50 mph, and she could make the season history. Nope, 1966 will still retain the all time record of most consecutive hurricanes from the start. Hurricane Andrew (444) 15:17, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * No, 2011 owns the record. 1966 had intervening depression's. YE <font color="#66666">Tropical <font color="#66666">Cyclone  15:23, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Last NHC advisory issued... now in the CPAC. It is the first storm in that area since Omeka last December, and I believe this is the first time since Lana in 2009 that a tropical cyclone crossed the EPAC/CPAC boundary (note: Lana was only a TD before its crossing). Hilda was the last crossing, I overlooked quite a few storms. Hurricane Andrew (444) 13:06, August 18, 2011 (UTC)

 * If Fernanda survives its journey through the central pacific, I think Fernanda could regenerate (assuming it becomes a remnant low) and become a tropical storm again. The real question here is that if it does survive, can it become a hurricane before it would cross over into the West Pacific. Suprise11 06:18, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Post-Tropical Cyclone Fernanda
And there goes the first storm of this year's EPAC season to fail to reach hurricane strength. I'm honestly quite happy about this, since it looks like Fernanda and Harvey might go hand-in-hand to level the playing field, just a little bit. --HurricaneMaker99 03:06, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Bye, Fernanda! At least you didn't reach hurricane strength. I'm getting sick of hurricanes. Now there is one record 2011 has failed to break: the most consecutive named storms that reached hurricane status from the start (technically, 2011 owns the record for most consecutive storms becoming hurricanes from the start, but 1966 still holds the record I said above). Hurricane Andrew (444) 14:14, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes 1966 holds the record for NAMED storms to become hurricanes, but 2011 was the first season on record to have the first 5 storms become hurricanes. TD's form every year in the EPac and not one season since 1971 hasn't had any depressions not be named storms. 1966 technically isn't in the reliable record books, so there is a good chance a few more unnoticed TD's or TS's came between those hurricanes. In the same way, Natalie of 1964 holds the record latest first storm of EPac since 1949, but we consider Ava of 1969 as having been the latest since we could have missed a few storms back then. So if you only go since 1971, this year holds the record. Ryan1000 15:02, August 20, 2011 (UTC)

Retirements at a glance
Started this section early. With three hurricanes at hand, I just felt like starting this section. Anywho, what are your predictions?

Mine:


 * Adrian - 1% No effects on land, intensity doesn't earn retirements.


 * Beatriz - 10% Impact not significant, while there are 4 deaths, I don't think it's going to be retired.


 * Calvin - 1% Was indeed an interesting storm.

 * Well, there are no storms with any reasonable chance of retirement, but if I had to put a number on it? I would put 5% to Beatriz and keep everyone else, since they did nothing. However, the season is far from over, and there is always a possibility of a destructive late-season storm like Kenna or Pauline. As of now, i'd wait on this section. I also made this in the WPac forum just now, but it should wait there too. Ryan1000 22:47, July 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * Here are mine:
 * Adrian - 2% I don't think so, intensities don't determine retirements. And Adrian's staying, unless he pulls a Knut out of the hat.
 * Beatriz - 7% Unless we get an Alma- like situation, no. 4 deaths are not enough, and Mexico has gone through worse than her.
 * Calvin - 0% He's gonna stay, no matter what. The end.
 * Dora - 3% See Adrian's section.
 * Eugene - 1% See Dora's, Calvin's, and Adrian's sections.
 * Fernanda - 0% - History doesn't earn retirement.
 * Greg - 1% - Slightly brushed Mexico, but no.
 * And I wouldn't be surprised if Beatriz is retired, you know of the EPac's storm history (for example, they let Alma, a storm that did next to nothing (but Alma does means "soul" in Spanish) get sacrificed, while they set a monster, Agatha, free. That's pathetic). Andrew444 02:26, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

 * Adrian – 0%:Unless it's some dictator's name, hell no.
 * Beatriz – 2%:Why the heck would this one be retired?
 * Calvin – 0%:I love fish :P


 * A bit early but here are mine:
 * Adrian; 0%: ^ what Darren said
 * Beatriz; 4%: Arlene hurt Mexico more, but Mexico seems resilient to retire names anymore
 * Calvin; 0%: Became a hurricane, but that's it.
 * Yqt1001 13:50, July 9, 2011 (UTC)

Here are mine:
 * Adrian: 1% Not enough impact
 * Beatriz: 5% Did not devastate the economy
 * Calvin 0%

 * Adrian: 1% - Unless he pulls an Adolph, no.
 * Beatriz: 10% - Some impact in Mexico, but not terribly significant. That said, there is the possibility that she could pull an Alma.
 * Calvin: 0% - Became a hurricane... and did absolutely nothing else.
 * Dora: 1% - Was fun as hell to track, but as Jake said about Danielle last year, beauty doesn't earn retirement.
 * Eugene: 1% - See Adrian and Dora's sections.
 * Fernanda: 0% - And so passes the first epic fail of the year (well, for the EPAC anyway).
 * Greg: 0% - See Calvin's section.

Here are my(official)EPac percentages as of now. Ryan1000 22:30, August 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Adrian - 1% - Just because he was so freakin' awesome.
 * Beatriz - 10% - Some deaths, some damage, but enough for retirement? Probrably not.
 * Calvin - 0% - There are two reasons why this thing shouldn't be retired:Number 1, and of course number 2!(end sarcasm)
 * Dora - 0% - Didn't pull off what Adrian did, so no credit for her.
 * Eugene - 1% - See Adrian.
 * Fernanda - 0% - Finally the hurricane streak ends, and it didn't do anything but spin fish.
 * Greg - 0% - See Calvin.

Here's mine:

<p style="margin-left: 40px">Adrian, Calvin, Dora, Eugene, Fernanda, and Greg - 0% - they're all fishspinners.

<p style="margin-left: 40px">Beatriz - 5% - At least it had fatalities and affected land.

Mid-season forecasts
What are you guy mid-season forecasts. Mines is 14-9-4. YE <font color="#66666">Tropical <font color="#66666">Cyclone


 * I am expecting a near-normal season here, if not slightly below normal, and I am calling for, say 14-16 storms, 6-8 hurricanes, and 2-4 majors, but no category 5's. Until Calvin dissipates, I guess the next thing to watch is 08W in the WPac, which is currently Goring by PAGASA and could become future Ma-on. Ryan1000 19:24, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna go to the lower end of all y'all's forecasts and go for 12 NS, 7 H, 3 MH and also no C5's (EPAC only, I hate forecasting CPAC). Apparently, this is close to the CPC forecast of a median of 12 NS, 6.5 H and 2 MH. Here's my monthly forecast:

HurricaneSpin's

Atlantic: 16-13-8-5-1 (Maria) ACE=108

- <font color="#000000">HurricaneSpin <font color="#654321">(Talk)  20:26, July 9, 2011 (UTC) Oh yeah, ATL. I'm going with 16 (±3) NS, 8(±2) H, 5(±1) MH, ≥0 C5, or above normal with an ACE of 110-195, or (assuming median ACE is 87.5) 125-222% above normal mean because conditions are still very favorable for significant development in the season. <font color="Blue">Darren 23 Edits 20:57, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * My predictions:
 * Atlantic: 16-8-4-2
 * Pacific: 14-7-3-0
 * Yqt1001 21:49, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * I think the Atlantic will have 14-9-5. IMO, the pacific is more tricky since we already have had the first three storms become hurricanes and 1 major. I would go with 11-12 storms, 6-8 hurricanes, and 1-5 majors (I wouldn't be suprised if the season ends up like 2010 and has no majors through peak of season.)
 * ACE for the Atlantic should be around 150. The Pacific ACE should be between 50-80. Suprise11 22:53, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2010? Why is 2010 being discussed? Do you realize that the 2010 PHS an anomaly? The environment is much more favorable than 2010. In fact, if this seaosn shuts down later this month, and pulls a 2010/1977, I will be shocked. YE <font color="#66666">Tropical <font color="#66666">Cyclone  22:57, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * While 2010 was anomaly (Number of June storms, June C5, lack of activity afterward), because we are in the inactive Pacific era, a repeat will not be surprising, but it is not really expected. And YE, an interment is a burial :P <font color="Blue">Darren 23 Edits 23:11, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * It will be surprising, because a 2010 type season has occurred only twice in the past 44 years. So the odds of an 2010 type season is 1/22.YE <font color="#66666">Tropical <font color="#66666">Cyclone  23:29, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * I meant 2010 in terms of the possibility of no majors through peak of season. For example, despite 2003's high number of named storms, there were no majors. Suprise11 23:36, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * Given the fact that we already have three major and one cane, it is unlikely that we will have no majors in the season. Most years have a Baja storm that becomes an MH if not an MH fish storm. In fact, I could only find two seasons since 1977 with no MH's during the peak (2003 and 2010). Odds=1/12. YE <font color="#66666">Tropical <font color="#66666">Cyclone  23:43, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * True. I gave a big range since because of the difficulty for me to predict majors for this season. I honestly think we will get 2 more majors for a total of 3 majors. This is inside my range. Suprise11 23:50, July 9, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not entirely sure, but I do believe that a 2010 repeat is next to impossible here. Not to say a 2010 repeat won't happen, but the chances are not good. I changed the tables below the forumheader and the WAD(Worldwide activity discussion) now has it's own forum. I expect a major or two to come in the season's peak, but per 2003 and last year, that's not a gurantee, but again, it's not likely we won't have a peak-season major hurricane this year. The only thing out there as of now is the new TD in the WPac(excluding Calvin, he's pretty much gone). Ryan1000 01:33, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well... my predictions are on the worldwide discusssion page, but here are my E. Pac and C.Pac mid- season forecasts. And for the E.Pac, we've seen 3-3-1 already, but anywho:
 * E.Pac:
 * 14-7-2-0 (get down to Max + one Atlantic crossover) ACE= ~105 Net TC activity: 101%
 * C.Pac (note: crossover(s) from the EPac are excluded):
 * (2-4)-(1-3)-(0-2)-(0-1) ACE = ~20
 * I believe in the CPac, we'll get down to Unala, possibly Wali, or if the CPac wants to be like 1982, Ana.
 * For my other forecasts, go to the WAD and 2011-12 S. Hem pages. Andrew444 13:32, July 10, 2011 (UTC)

 * YE, Southern California is overdue. Last hurricane to make landfall was in 1858, and the last tropical storm was in 1939. However, numerous depressions have made landfall since then. Suprise11 17:24, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Suprise11, the 1858 hurricane did bring hurricane force winds ashore, but it actually just barely missed landfall. Hurricane Andrew (444) 18:39, August 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't forget western Central America.Cyclone10 21:35, August 27, 2011 (UTC)
