For the eastern North Pacific, east of 140 degrees west longitude:
Tropical cyclone activity in the eastern North Pacific basin during
the month of October was near to slightly below average in terms of
both named storms and hurricanes that formed. Marie formed in
September and became a hurricane, and then a major hurricane, at
the beginning of October. Norbert was the only tropical cyclone to
form in October. Based on a 30-year (1981-2010) climatology, two
named storms typically form in the basin in October, with one of
those becoming a hurricane and one reaching major hurricane
intensity every other year.
In terms of Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE), which measures the
strength and duration of tropical storms and hurricanes, activity
in the basin so far in 2020 has been rather quiet, more than 40
percent below the long-term average.
Reports on individual cyclones, when completed, are available at
