List of Baja California Peninsula hurricanes

List of Baja California Peninsula hurricanes

The list of Baja California hurricanes includes all of the tropical cyclones that impacted the Baja California Peninsula, which includes the Mexican states of Baja California and Baja California Sur. Due to the location and geography of the peninsula, Baja California is the region in Mexico that receives the most landfalls by tropical cyclones of tropical storm intensity or stronger.cite web|Author=E. Jáuregui|url= http://www.ejournal.unam.mx/atmosfera/Vol16-4/ATM16401.pdf|title=Climatology of landfalling hurricanes and tropical storms in Mexico|accessdate=2006-11-09|format=PDF] In the period 1951 to 2000, Baja California had one hurricane and three tropical storms make landfall. During the same period, Baja California Sur witnessed nineteen hurricanes and thirty tropical storms. These last totals are the most for any Mexican state, Atlantic or Pacific.

Listed by month

The tropical climatology of the Baja California peninsula, as well as the paths of Pacific hurricanes, ensures that the peninsula sees more tropical cyclones than anywhere else in Mexico. Most tropical cyclone impacts occurred in the month of September. This coincides with the statistical peak in the eastern north Pacific hurricane season, which occurs in early September or late August.cite web|url=http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/G1.html|title=Subject: G1) When is hurricane season ?|author=Neal Dorst|publisher=Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory|work=Frequently Asked Questions|accessdate=2006-12-07] Although hurricane season in the eastern north Pacific officially runs from May 15 to November 30,cite web|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/pastprofile.shtml|title=Tropical Cyclone Climaotology|publisher=Tropical Prediction Center|accessdate=2006-12-07] no known tropical cyclones have impacted the peninsula in May, June, November, or outside the season.

Deadly systems

As many tropical cyclones impact the peninsula, sometimes when rather intense, deaths frequently occur.

Tropical cyclone warnings and watches

If a tropical cyclone threatens to bring tropical storm or hurricane conditions to areas in the Baja California Peninsula, the government issues tropical cyclone warnings and watches for the threatened areas. The watches and warnings will be issued in coastal area between internationally recognized points known as breakpoints. The Baja California peninsula has twenty-two breakpoints, running from the United States-Mexico border, south along the Pacific coast to Cabo San Lucas, and north along the Gulf of California coast to Calamajue.cite web|url=http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/breakpoints_list.shtml?|title=Hurricane and Tropical Storm Watch/Warning Breakpoints|date=2006-08-08|publisher=National Hurricane Center|accessdate=2006-12-07] However, tropical cyclones can still bring dangerous conditions such as flooding to areas not covered by warnings and watches.
