Hurricane Carlos (other)
The name Carlos has been used for ten tropical cyclones worldwide: eight in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, and one each in the Australian region and the South-West Indian Ocean. In the Eastern Pacific: * Tropical Storm Carlos (1979) – a fast-moving tropical storm that did not make landfall * Tropical Storm Carlos (1985) – a short-lived and minimal tropical storm which did not affect land * Hurricane Carlos (1991) – early-season major hurricane that remained in the open ocean. * Tropical Storm Carlos (1997) – a moderate but also short-lived tropical storm which never threatened land and caused no reported casualties or damage * Tropical Storm Carlos (2003) – a fairly strong tropical storm that impacted Mexico, causing nine fatalities and a monetary damage total of 86.7 million pesos ($8 million 2003 USD) * Hurricane Carlos (2009) – a Category 2 hurricane which affected no land areas * Hurricane Carlos (2015) – a small tropical cyclone which caused moderate impacts to t ...

Tropical Cyclone
A tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating storm system with a low-pressure area, a closed low-level atmospheric circulation, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain and squalls. Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is called a hurricane (), typhoon (), tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression, or simply cyclone. A hurricane is a strong tropical cyclone that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean or northeastern Pacific Ocean. A typhoon is the same thing which occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. In the Indian Ocean and South Pacific, comparable storms are referred to as "tropical cyclones". In modern times, on average around 80 to 90 named tropical cyclones form each year around the world, over half of which develop hurricane-force winds of or more. Tropical cyclones tropical cyclogenesis, typically form over large bodies of relatively warm water. They derive their energy through the evaporation of water ...

Tropical Storm Carlos (1979)
The 1979 Pacific hurricane season was an inactive North Pacific hurricane season, featuring 10 named storms, 6 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes. All tropical cyclone activity this season was confined to the Eastern Pacific, east of 140°W. For the first time since 1977, no tropical cyclones formed in, or entered into the Central Pacific, between 140°W and the International Date Line. The season officially started on May 15, 1979 in the Eastern Pacific and on June 1 in the Central Pacific; they both ended on November 30, 1979. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in these basins. The season's first storm, Andres, developed on May 31, while its last, Jimena, dissipated on November 18. In early June, Andres moved onshore Mexico as a minimal hurricane, while in late October, Ignacio struck the coastline as a tropical depression. Impacts from those storms were minimal, as were the effects of the prep ...

Tropical Storm Carlos (1985)
The 1985 Pacific hurricane season is the third-most active Pacific hurricane season on record. It officially started on May 15, 1985, in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 1985, in the central Pacific, and lasted until November 30, 1985. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. At the time, the 1985 season was the most active on record in the eastern north Pacific, with 28 tropical cyclones forming. Of those, 24 were named, 13 reached hurricane intensity, and 8 became major hurricanes by attaining Category 3 status or higher on the Saffir–Simpson scale. At that time, the 24 named storms was a record; however, this record was broken seven years later in 1992, and was therefore recognized as the second busiest season within the basin, until it was surpassed exactly thirty years later by the 2015 season. Despite the activity, only one system made landfall in 1985. Hurricane Waldo caused m ...

Hurricane Carlos (1991)
The 1991 Pacific hurricane season was a near-average Pacific hurricane season. The worst storm this year was Tropical Storm Ignacio, which killed 23 people in Mexico and injured 40 others. Elsewhere, Hurricane Fefa caused flooding in Hawaii. Hurricane Kevin was the strongest system of the season and became the then longest-lasting hurricane in the eastern north Pacific basin at the time, and Hurricane Nora was the strongest November storm to that point. The season officially started on May 15, 1991, in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 1991, in the central Pacific. It lasted until November 30, 1991, in both basins. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. Seasonal summary During the season, a total of sixteen tropical cyclones developed, featuring ten hurricanes, four tropical storms and two tropical depressions. These totals are close to the climatological averages established since 1966 ...

Tropical Storm Carlos (1997)
The 1997 Pacific hurricane season was a very active hurricane season. With hundreds of deaths and hundreds of millions of dollars in damage, this was one of the deadliest and costliest Pacific hurricane seasons on record. This was due to the exceptionally strong 1997–98 El Niño event. The season officially started on May 15, in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1, in the central Pacific, and lasted until November 30. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when almost all tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. Several storms impacted land. The first was Tropical Storm Andres which killed four people and left another two missing. In August, Tropical Storm Ignacio took an unusual path through the basin, resulting in its extratropical remnants causing minimal damage throughout the Pacific Northwest and California. Linda became the most intense east Pacific hurricane in recorded history, a record it maintained until it was surpassed by Hurr ...

Tropical Storm Carlos (2003)
Tropical Storm Carlos was the first of five tropical cyclones to make landfall during the 2003 Pacific hurricane season. It formed on June 26 from a tropical wave to the south of Mexico. It quickly strengthened as it approached the coast, and early on June 27 Carlos moved ashore in Oaxaca with winds of . The storm rapidly deteriorated to a remnant low, which persisted until dissipating on June 29. Carlos brought heavy rainfall to portions of southern Mexico, peaking at in two locations in Guerrero. Throughout its path, the storm damaged about 30,000 houses, with a monetary damage total of 86.7 million pesos (2003  MXN, $8 million 2003 USD). At least nine people were killed throughout the country, seven due to mudslides and two from river flooding; there was also a report of two missing fishermen. Meteorological history The origins of Carlos were from a tropical wave that exited the west coast of Africa on June 14. The wave moved we ...

Hurricane Carlos (2009)
The 2009 Pacific hurricane season was the most active Pacific hurricane season since 1997. The season officially started on May 15 in the East Pacific Ocean, and on June 1 in the Central Pacific; they both ended on November 30. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Eastern Pacific tropical cyclone basin; however, tropical cyclone formation is possible at any time of the year. The first system of the season, Tropical Depression One-E, developed on June 18, and the last, Hurricane Neki, dissipated on October 27, keeping activity well within the bounds of the season. For the first time since 1999, the first system of the season did not form until mid-June. Three days after One-E formed, the first named storm of the season, Hurricane Andres developed. Activity picked-up during peak-season, and according to the NHC's tropical weather summary, August 2009, with seven named storms in their region, was one of the most activ ...

Hurricane Carlos (2015)
Hurricane Carlos was an unusually small tropical cyclone which affected the western coast of Mexico in June 2015. Forming as the third named storm and hurricane of the annual hurricane season, Carlos developed from a trough first noted by the National Hurricane Center on June 7. The disturbance gradually organized and was designated as a tropical depression three days later while south of the Mexican Pacific coast. Drifting slowly northwestward, the depression was upgraded further to a tropical storm. Although persistent wind shear and dry air hampered intensification early on, Carlos strengthened into a hurricane on June 13 after moving into a more favorable environment. However, the return of dry air and upwelling of cooler waters caused the system to deteriorate into a tropical storm. Paralleling the Mexican coast, Carlos later regained hurricane intensity on June 15 and attained peak winds of a day later. The reprieve was brief, however, as the onset of ...

Tropical Storm Carlos (2021)
The 2021 Pacific hurricane season was a moderately active Pacific hurricane season, with above-average activity in terms of number of named storms, but below-average activity in terms of major hurricanes, as 19 named storms, 8 hurricanes, and 2 major hurricanes formed in all. It also had a near-normal accumulated cyclone energy (ACE). The season officially began on May 15, 2021 in the Eastern Pacific Ocean (east of from 140°W), and on June 1, 2021, in the Central Pacific (from 140°W to the International Date Line) in the Northern Hemisphere. The season ended in both regions on November 30, 2021. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these regions of the Pacific and are adopted by convention. However, the formation of tropical cyclones is possible at any time of the year, as illustrated by the formation of Tropical Storm Andres on May 9, which was the earliest forming tropical storm on record in the Eastern ...

Cyclone Carlos
Severe Tropical Cyclone Carlos was a strong tropical cyclone that made landfall in Australia and resulted in $12.3 million USD in damages. Carlos was first spotted on 14 February near Batchelor and intensified to a Category 3 cyclone on 22 February. The storm affected Australia for most of its life. Meteorological history On 14 February, the Tropical Cyclone Warning Centre (TCWC) in Darwin reported that a tropical low formed near latitude 13.2S, longitude 130.7E, about west southwest of Batchelor. A severe weather warning was issued for northwest Darwin- Daly District and the Tiwi Islands. Heavy rain pounded the area on 15 February with reports of Marrara recording and Darwin International Airport of rain. This was later followed by of rain in just 24 hours, which is the highest 24-hour rainfall for the city on record. On 16 February, the slow moving system strengthened into After looping around the Darwin area overnight and back over land the system weakened on 17 Feb ...

List Of Storms Named Carol
The name Carol was used for nine tropical cyclones worldwide: three in the Atlantic Ocean, four in the Australian Region of the Indian Ocean and once each in the northwestern Pacific Ocean and the South-West Pacific Ocean. Atlantic * Hurricane Carol (1953), a Category 5 Cape Verde-type hurricane that made landfall in New Brunswick as a minimal hurricane. * Hurricane Carol (1954), a Category 3 hurricane that made landfall on Long Island, New York, and then in Connecticut. * Hurricane Carol (1965), a long-lived Category 1 hurricane that remained in the open ocean. Due to 1954 hurricane's severity, the U.S. Weather Bureau removed the name Carol from the tropical system naming lists for 10 years. The name Carol replaced the name ''Carla'' following the 1961 season. The name Carol was permanently retired following the 1965 season due to 1954 hurricane being an active subject of research at the time. The name Carol was replaced by '' Camille'' for the 1969 season. Aust ...
