2013 Pacific hurricane season

The Pacific hurricane season officially began in 2013 in the eastern Pacific on 15 May and began in the central Pacific Ocean on June 1. It ended on 30 November. During this period, usually form the most tropical storms, since in this period good conditions for the formation of hurricanes are present, the ocean is warm enough, the humidity is high and little wind shear, but a tropical storm could form at any time. All storms north of the equator and east of 180 ° W are also included. The storms that form west of 180 ° W, are called typhoons, and are part of the Pacific typhoon season 2013.

The season started on time with the formation of Tropical Storm Alvin on May 15, the official start of the hurricane season in the eastern Pacific. With Hurricane Barbara two weeks, the first hurricane of the season developed by Alvin. Barbara reached the strength of a weak hurricane and went on the evening of 29 May on the border region between Chiapas and Oaxaca in the country. The storm resulted in the death of at least 4 people. The next two hurricanes, and Cosme Dalila, developed south of Mexico and influenced both the weather in the southern and western parts of the country. Even after following the storm, Erick, is named as a hurricane and moved directly to the coast of Mexico along. Several parts of the country have been flooded. Tropical Storm Flossie, which formed the end of July, took the first tropical system of the season in the central Pacific, and dissipated on west-northwest of Hawaii. Far from the mainland also formed Hurricane Gil, which in late July and early August existed. The following Hurricane Henriette made ​​directly east of Gil and had difficulties to develop. As Gil, however distant, strengthened Henriette rapidly and intensified into a Category 2 hurricane. After less than a week silence was formed in the Central Pacific Ocean near the International Date Line, the first from the Central Pacific Hurricane Center ( CPHC ) named storm: Pewa. After Pewa moved into the Western Pacific, two days later, was directly east of the system of weak tropical storm Unala, as the life had only one day. The following thereafter tropical storms Ivo, Juliette, Kiko and Lorena influenced all the weather in Lower California. Ivo and Kiko also influenced the weather in the southwestern United States. Mid-September formed south of Mexico, Tropical Storm Manuel, who was only about Colima on land and then reintensivierte west of Nayarit and Sinaloa as a hurricane over went ashore. Manuel claimed at least 169 lives and caused a total loss of 4.2 billion U.S. dollars. The then following tropical storm Narda was formed in early October far from land over the open Pacific, and thus threatened no land. With Octave and Priscilla in mid- October were two tropical storms. While the weaker of the two, Priscilla, threatened no land, Octave went over Baja California on land.

Storms

Tropical Storm Alvin

On May 14 was formed 650 miles south of Acapulco, Mexico, a wide range of low air pressure. The following day, the National Hurricane Center (NHC ) announced the formation of a tropical low pressure system One - E is about 1045 km south-southwest of Acapulco, Mexico. Only six hours later reinforced the low pressure area into a tropical storm and was named Alvin. In the early morning of May 16 Alvin reached its peak with winds of 85 km / h and an air pressure of 1003 hPa, but weakened thereafter again and was on the evening of the same day, only a minimal tropical storm. In the morning hours of the 17th of May, Alvin weakened Mexico 1275 km southwest of Manzanillo, in a trough and from the National Hurricane Center issued the last warning to the system. The remains of Alvin showed after easing into a trough, although signs of a recovery, but prevented poor conditions for further development of regaining status as a tropical depression.

Hurricane Barbara

On May 24 was formed 150 miles southwest of the coast of Costa Rica an area disturbed weather. Over the next few days, the system was able to organize more and more, making it on May 27, had a high probability to develop into a tropical system. On the evening of 28 May, the National Hurricane Center (NHC ) upgraded it to a tropical depression two- E, as it is about 265 km south- southwest of Salina Cruz, Mexico was. This was upgraded to a tropical storm and was named Barbara same evening. The storm strengthened rapidly and was already at noon of May 29 ongoing wind speeds of 100 km / h, which corresponds to a strong tropical storm. Later that day, recognized the National Hurricane Center that Barbara has reached wind speeds of up to 120 km / h so that the storm was upgraded to a hurricane. Around 1950 UTC on May 29, Barbara went 35 km west of Tonala, Chiapas on land. After landfall, the hurricane weakened rapidly into a tropical storm as it moved further and further inland. Early on May 30 announced the National Hurricane Center that Barbara has weakened into a tropical depression. On the same day, Barbara degenierte 40 km north-northwest of Coatzacoalcos, Mexico into a remnant low and the National Hurricane Center issued the last warning to the system. In the course of the following day the remains of Barbara moved to the Bay of Campeche, where they were observed on 1 June for the last time.

Due to the effects of the storm at least four people were killed: In El Salvador, a 44 -year-old woman has been killed by a tree that had fallen over, off the coast of Oaxaca is a 61 -year-old surfer from the U.S. drowned, in the interior of Mexico is a 27 - year-old man was swept away by a torrent and in the city of Santa Cruz, the body of a 60 -year-old man was found on a riverbank.
