Tropical Storm Cosme
The name Cosme has been used for ten Tropical cyclones worldwide, eight in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, and two in the Philippines by PAGASA in the Western Pacific Ocean. In the Eastern Pacific: * Tropical Storm Cosme (1983), did not affect land. * Hurricane Cosme (1989), a large Category 1 hurricane that made landfall near Acapulco; brought heavy rains, which killed at least 30 people due to drowning. * Hurricane Cosme (1995), a Category 1 hurricane that never affected land, caused no damage or fatalities. * Tropical Storm Cosme (2001), did not make landfall; dissipated about 820 mi (1,320 km) west-southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. * Hurricane Cosme (2007), a Category 1 hurricane that stayed far from land, effects were mostly minor. * Hurricane Cosme (2013), a Category 1 hurricane; did not make landfall but caused minor damage to the west coast of Mexico and the Revillagigedo Islands. * Tropical Storm Cosme (2019), never threatened land. * Tropical Storm Cosme (2025), str ...

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 ...

Revillagigedo Islands
The Revillagigedo Islands (, ) or Revillagigedo Archipelago are a group of four volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean, known for their unique ecosystem. They lie approximately from Socorro Island south and southwest of Cabo San Lucas, the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula, and west of Manzanillo. Historically linked to the Mexican state of Colima, to which they were granted in 1861 to establish a penal colony, the islands are under Mexican federal property and jurisdiction. In July 2016, the Revillagigedo Archipelago was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and in November 2017 they were declared to be a marine reserve and a national park of Mexico. Some of the volcanoes are active, with the last eruption of Volcán Bárcena in 1953, and Socorro in 1993. Travelling to the islands from their nearest land point takes approximately 26 to 30 hours, as they are typically reached by sea; a small military airstrip exists on Socorro.

List Of Storms Named Carina
The name Carina has been used for five tropical cyclones worldwide: four in the Philippines by PAGASA in the Western Pacific, and one by Météo-France in the South-West Indian Ocean. In the Western Pacific, where it replaced '' Cosme'' after a tropical storm in 2008 devastated the Philippines: * Severe Tropical Storm Talim (2012) (T1205, 06W, Carina) - hit Taiwan. * Severe Tropical Storm Nida (2016) (T1604, 07W, Carina) – struck the Philippines and China. * Tropical Depression Carina (2020) – a weak system that threatened no land areas. * Typhoon Gaemi (2024) (T2403, 05W, Carina) – a powerful typhoon that impacted Taiwan and East China, and also drenched western Luzon in the Philippines The Philippines, officially the Republic of the Philippines, is an Archipelagic state, archipelagic country in Southeast Asia.

Tropical Storm Halong (2008)
Severe Tropical Storm Halong (transliterated from Vietnamese Hạ Long), known in the Philippines as Typhoon Cosme, was the fourth severe tropical storm named by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), which is the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre for the Northwestern Pacific Ocean. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center also recognized Halong as the fifth tropical depression, the fourth tropical storm, as well as the third typhoon of the 2008 Pacific typhoon season. Meteorological history Late on May 13, a tropical disturbance formed in the South China Sea. Early the next day, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) and the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical, and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) designated the disturbance as a tropical depression, with PAGASA assigning the local name of Cosme. However the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) did not issue a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert until later that day. The JTWC then designated the depression as 05W on May ...

Typhoon Sudal
Typhoon Sudal (), known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Cosme, was the strongest tropical cyclone, typhoon to strike the island of Yap in the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) in about 50 years. Yap is one of the four Administrative divisions of the Federated States of Micronesia, administrative divisions of the FSM. The entire island, only in length, experienced typhoon force winds, and 90% of the structures were damaged or destroyed. Damage was most severe in southeastern Yap, where the eye (cyclone), eyewall struck and winds exceeded , but the center of the typhoon passed south of the island. Typhoon Sudal originally formed on April 2, 2004, out of a persistent area of atmospheric convection, convection east of the FSM. It moved mostly westward for the first week of its duration, with brief northerly and southwesterly turns. Sudal attained tropical storm status on April 5, and it gradually intensified into a typhoon, which is a tropical cyclone with winds ...

Tropical Storm Cosme (2025)
The 2025 Pacific hurricane season is the current Pacific hurricane season for the Northern Hemisphere. The season officially began on May 15, 2025, and ends on November 30, 2025. For the Central Pacific ( 140ºW to 180º), the season began on June 1, 2025, and it too ends on November 30, 2025. These dates, adopted by convention, describe the period in which most subtropical or tropical cyclogenesis occurs in the Pacific Ocean. In contrast to last season, which was the latest starting Pacific hurricane season in the satellite-era, there were multiple early season storms this year. Tropical Storm Alvin formed off the coast of southern Mexico on May 28, and remained over the open waters of the Eastern Pacific. Four storms formed in a ten-day period from June 8 to June 17, including Hurricane Barbara and Tropical Storm Dalila, both of which grazed the southwestern coast of Mexico, and Hurricane Erick, the earliest fifth named storm on record in the Eastern Pacific and the earlies ...

Tropical Storm Cosme (2019)
The 2019 Pacific hurricane season was an above average season which produced nineteen named storms, most of which were rather weak and short-lived. Only seven hurricanes formed, the fewest since 2010. The season officially began 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 Pacific basin. This season was one of the latest-starting Pacific hurricane seasons on record (reliable records began in 1971), with the first tropical cyclone, Hurricane Alvin, forming on June 25. The final system, Tropical Depression Twenty-One-E, dissipated on November 18. The season had a rather slow start, with no cyclones forming in the basin before the month of June for the first time since 2011. The strongest hurricane of the season, Barbara, formed on June 30 and peaked as a high-end Category 4 hurricane on Ju ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hurricane Cosme (2013)
Hurricane Cosme caused flooding along the Pacific coast of Mexico in June 2013. The third named tropical cyclone of the 2013 Pacific hurricane season, the storm system formed from a tropical wave south of Manzanillo, Colima, on June 23. The cyclone intensified into a tropical storm on June 24, and soon after strengthened into a hurricane on June 25. Early the following day, Cosme attained its peak intensity as a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson scale with maximum sustained winds of 85 mph (140 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 980 mbar (hPa; 28.94 inHg). However, Cosme then began to encounter stable air and lower sea surface temperatures, causing the system to weaken to a tropical storm late on June 26. The system continued to weaken and degenerated into a remnant low pressure surface trough about 690 mi (1,110 km) west-southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, on June 27. The remnants persisted ...

Pacific Ocean
The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of Earth's five Borders of the oceans, oceanic divisions. It extends from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Southern Ocean, or, depending on the definition, to Antarctica in the south, and is bounded by the continents of Asia and Australia in the west and the Americas in the east. At in area (as defined with a southern Antarctic border), the Pacific Ocean is the largest division of the World Ocean and the hydrosphere and covers approximately 46% of Earth's water surface and about 32% of the planet's total surface area, larger than its entire land area ().Pacific Ocean .

Hurricane Cosme (2007)
The 2007 Pacific hurricane season was a well below-average Pacific hurricane season, featuring only one major hurricane. The season officially started on May 15 in the eastern Pacific and on June 1 in the central Pacific, and ended on November 30; these dates conventionally delimit the period during which most tropical cyclones form in the region. The first tropical cyclone of the season, Alvin, developed on May 27, while the final system of the year, Kiko, dissipated on October 23. Due to unusually strong wind shear, activity fell short of the long-term average, with a total of 11 named storms, 4 hurricanes, and 1 major hurricane. At the time, 2007 featured the second-lowest value of the Accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index since reliable records began in 1971. Two tropical cyclones – Cosme and Flossie – crossed into the central Pacific basin during the year, activity below the average of 4 to 5 systems. Impact during the season was relatively minimal. ...

Tropical Storm Cosme (2001)
The 2001 Pacific hurricane season was a relatively near-average Pacific hurricane season which produced fifteen named storms, though most were rather weak and short-lived. Only eight hurricanes formed and two major hurricanes. The season officially began on May 15 in the East Pacific Ocean, and on June 1 in the Central Pacific; they ended on November 30. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Pacific basin. However, the formation of tropical cyclones is possible at any time of the year. The first storm of the season, Hurricane Adolph, formed on May 25 which became the strongest hurricane in the month of May at the time. Tropical Storm Barbara passed just north of Hawaii, bringing minimal impact. The most notable storm that year was Hurricane Juliette, which caused devastating floods in Baja California Peninsula. September was much more active with six systems developing, of which three became hurricane ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
