The season accumulated the second-fewest ACE units on record, as many of the tropical cyclones were weak and short-lived. Altogether, only three of the season's eight named storms strengthened into hurricanes. Of those, two became major hurricanes, with one, Celia, reaching Category 5 intensity on the Saffir-Simpson scale. Despite the inactivity, however, it was the costliest Pacific hurricane season on record at the time, mostly due to Tropical Storm Agatha. The season officially began on May 15 in the eastern North Pacific (east 140°W) and on June 1 in the central North Pacific (from 140°W to the International Date Line). It ended in both regions on November 30. These dates, adopted by convention, historically describe the period in each year when most tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these regions of the Pacific. However, the formation of tropical cyclones is possible at any time of the year, as evidenced by the formation of Tropical Storm Omeka on December 19. The first system of the season, Agatha, developed on May 29 near the coast of Guatemala. In the second week of June, a sudden spree of tropical cyclones developed, and between June 16 and 22, four cyclones formed, including the two major hurricanes of the season, Celia and Darby, the first of which reached Category 5 intensity. This near-record activity was a reversal from the previous season, when no storm formed until June 18. Following this activity, July saw zero named storms. In August and September only 2 tropical storms and one hurricane formed. Tropical Depression Eleven-E caused a great deal of flooding in southern Mexico, causing millions of dollars in damage, as well as causing over 50 deaths and $500 million in damage in areas of Oaxaca and Guatemala. Tropical Storm Omeka was a rare off-season storm.

They expected two or three cyclones to form in or enter the region throughout the season, below the average of four or five storms. The below-average activity forecast was based on two factors: the first was the continuance of a period of decreased activity in the central Pacific; and second, the effects of a Neutral El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) or La Niña, both of which reduce cyclone activity in the region. However, in light of the near-miss of Hurricane Felicia the previous year, forecasters at the Central Pacific Hurricane Center gave the public a basic message for the 2010 season, "Prepare! Watch! Act!".Delores Clark National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration May 19, 2010 June 24, 2010 NOAA Expects Below Normal Central Pacific Hurricane Season http://www.weather.gov/hawaii/pages/examples/2010cphc.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20100613125730/http://www.weather.gov/hawaii/pages/examples/2010cphc.pdf June 13, 2010 dead On May 27, 12 days after the official start of the 2010 eastern Pacific hurricane season, NOAA released their forecast for the basin. Similar to the forecast for the central Pacific, below-average activity was expected, with nine to fifteen named storms forming, four to eight of which would become hurricanes and a further one to three would become major hurricanes. This lessened activity was based on the same two factors as the central Pacific, decreased activity since 1995 and the ENSO event. Overall, NOAA stated there was a 75% chance of below-average activity, 20% of near-normal and only a 5% chance of above-average due to a strong La Niña.http://www.cpc.noaa.gov/products/Epac_hurr/Epac_hurricane.html 2010 Eastern Pacific Hurricane Season Outlook Gerald Bell Jae Schemm Eric Blake Todd Kimberlain Christopher Landsea May 27, 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100527123742/http://www.cpc.noaa.gov/products/Epac_hurr/Epac_hurricane.html May 27, 2010 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration May 28, 2010 dead Seasonal summary +Activity by month compared to averagesStacy R.

The vast majority of the ACE stemmed from Hurricanes Celia and Darby, which collectively accounted for roughly 70 percent of the seasonal total. Continuing a trend of below-average activity that began in 1995, the 2010 season was quiet as expected. The Eastern Pacific proper saw record-low numbers of named storms and hurricanes, with only seven and three respectively forming. Inclusive of the Central Pacific, the basin tied its record low activity of eight named storms set in 1977.Hurricane Research Division National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration July 2014 June 22, 2015 Northeast Pacific hurricane best track (HURDAT version 2) http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hurdat/tracks-hurdat2-epac-1949-2013-jul14.html dead https://web.archive.org/web/20150521024144/http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hurdat/tracks-hurdat2-epac-1949-2013-jul14.html May 21, 2015 Raymond Tanabe Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorology February 28, 2011 March 8, 2011 Review of the 2010 Central Pacific Tropical Cyclone Season and Preliminary Verification http://www.ofcm.gov/ihc11/Presentations/Session02%20-%20Season%20in%20Review/s02-04CPHC_2011_IHC.pptx PPTX https://web.archive.org/web/20110718172202/http://www.ofcm.gov/ihc11/Presentations/Session02%20-%20Season%20in%20Review/s02-04CPHC_2011_IHC.pptx July 18, 2011 dead Inactivity was largely attributed to a moderately strong La Niña event which resulted in below-average sea surface temperatures across the basin. Another major factor limiting storm formation was the eastward displacement of 200 mb divergence. The displacement of this feature brought conditions that favor tropical development closer to the rugged terrain of Mexico and Central America, a factor known to disrupt low-level circulations. Accordingly, six of the seven named storms in the Eastern Pacific proper formed east of 106°W, four of which originated over the Gulf of Tehuantepec where the greatest depth of warm waters were restricted to. A final limiting factor was above-average wind shear across much of the basin east of 130°W and north of 10°N. The record inactivity experienced in the Northeastern Pacific also took place in the Northwestern Pacific. Since reliable records began in the 1970s, there has been no precedent for both basins experiencing exceptionally low tropical cyclone formation. Moreover, this general lack of storm formation was reflected in all cyclone basins except the Atlantic. On average, the Northeastern Pacific accounts for 16 percent of the world's storms; however, during 2010, it accounted for roughly 10 percent (7 out of 67 cyclones).Jeff Masters Weather Underground April 4, 2011 April 4, 2011 The global tropical cyclone season of 2010: record inactivity http://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/comment.html?entrynum=1776 right Early to peak intensity left The season began with record-high activity, featuring two major hurricanes in June.

Attaining peak winds of 45 mph km/h on 5, Agatha soon made landfall late on May 29 near Champerico, Guatemala, just south of the border with Mexico.

Tropical Depression Two-E EPac Two-E Jun 16 2010 1700Z.jpg 02E 2010 path.png June 16 June 17 30 1007 A tropical wave emerged off the west coast of Africa on June 2 and entered the Atlantic Ocean. Tracking westward, the system eventually reached the eastern Pacific on June 13. As it approached the Gulf of Tehuantepec, convection increased, despite strong wind shear. Early on June 16, sufficient development had taken place for the NHC to classify the wave as a tropical depression, at which time the depression was situated roughly 110 mi km on 5 south of Salina Cruz, Mexico. A scatterometer pass over the storm revealed it to have attained peak winds of 35 mph km/h on 5 later that day. Thereafter, wind shear took its toll on the system and its low-level circulation ultimately dissipated early on June 17 while still off the coast of Mexico.Michael J. Brennan National Hurricane Center National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration July 28, 2010 June 27, 2015 Tropical Cyclone Report: Tropical Depression Two-E EP022010_Two-E PDF Miami, Florida Due to its proximity to land, tropical storm watches and warnings were issued in advance of the storm when the system was first classified. This was discontinued when the system dissipated. Rainfall associated with the depression extended as far north as Oaxaca.

Little convective development took place as it traversed the region; however, as it crossed Central America between June 9 and 10, it began to show signs of strengthening. By June 13, an area of low pressure developed within the wave and slowly developed a surface circulation over the following 48 hours as it remained nearly stationary over open waters. Early on June 17, deep convection was able to maintain itself over the system, prompting the NHC to classify the low as Tropical Depression Three-E; at this time, the depression was situated 305 mi km on 5 south-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico. Within hours of becoming a tropical depression, a ship in the region reported sustained winds of 45 mph km/h on 5, indicating that the system had developed into a tropical storm. The newly upgraded storm, now named Blas by the NHC, began to track slowly to the northwest, and later nearly due west, in response to a strengthening ridge over Mexico.Robbie Berg National Hurricane Center July 31, 2010 August 2, 2010 Tropical Storm Blas Tropical Cyclone Report EP032010_Blas PDF Strong wind shear prevented Blas from strengthening further over the following day; however, by June 19, the system entered a region of weaker shear. This allowed convection to develop over the center of circulation and that afternoon, the storm attained its peak intensity with winds of 65 mph km/h on 5 and a pressure of 992 mbar (hPa; 992 mbar inHg on 4 out). Shortly thereafter, cooler sea surface temperatures took their toll on Blas, causing the storm to gradually weaken. By June 21, the system weakened to a tropical depression as convection diminished. Hours later, it degenerated into a non-convective remnant low while situated about 715 mi km on west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California Sur. The remnants of Blas persisted through June 23 as they continued westward, before it dissipated to a weak upper-level low. Hurricane Celia EPac Celia 2010-06-25 0831Z.jpg Celia 2010 path.png June 18 June 28 140 921 On June 5, 2010, a tropical wave exited western Africa and traversed westward across the Atlantic Ocean. The system eventually crossed Central America and entered the Pacific Ocean on June 17. Thereafter, the thunderstorms increased along the wave axis as the system moved toward the west-northwest, steered by a ridge to the north. A low-pressure area formed on June 18, which continued to organize. Around 18:00 UTC that day, Tropical Depression Four-E developed about 370 mi (590 km) southeast of Acapulco, Mexico. The thunderstorms diminished before redeveloping and becoming better organized. Around 12:00 UTC on June 19, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) to upgrade the depression to Tropical Storm Celia. Around that time, the storm had an eye-like feature, consisting of a ring of convection around the circulation. which continued to organize within the central dense overcast.

The hurricane briefly weakened again as the eye dissipated. On June 24, the wind shear decreased, allowing Celia to restrengthen again as the eye reformed and became symmetrical. At 00:00 UTC on June 25, Celia attained maximum sustained winds of 160 mph km/h on 5 and a barometric pressure estimated at 921 mbar (hPa; 921 mbar inHg on on 4 out). This made it a Category 5 on the Saffir-Simpson scale, the first Pacific hurricane of that intensity in June since Hurricane Ava in 1973. At its peak, Celia had a well-defined eye estimated to be 17 to 23 mi km on in diameter. After maintaining peak winds for about 12 hours, Celia began weakening due to cooler waters and higher wind shear. On June 27, it fell to tropical storm status as the track slowed and shifted to the west-southwest, after the ridge weakened that was previously guiding Celia. The storm lost all convection on June 28, and degenerated into a remnant low.

Initially well-organized, the wave rapidly deteriorated within 24 hours; it continued westward without redevelopment and entered the Eastern Pacific on June 19. The following day, an area of low pressure developed within the system as it slowed and turned towards the west-northwest. Gradually organizing, the low strengthened into a tropical depression on June 23 while situated roughly 380 mi km on 5 south-southeast of Salina Cruz, Mexico. Over the following two days, Darby underwent two periods of rapid intensification. At the end of the second phase on June 25, the storm attained its peak intensity as a Category 3 hurricane with winds of 120 mph km/h on 5 and a pressure of 959 mbar (hPa; 959 mbar inHg on 4 out). Though a strong storm, Darby was unusually small with tropical storm force winds extending only 70 mi km on 5 from its center. Not long after peaking, a large area of westerly winds, produced by Hurricane Alex over the Gulf of Mexico, caused Darby to stall offshore before turning to the east, being drawn into the circulation of the larger storm. Increased wind shear produced by the "massive outflow of Alex" caused the small storm to rapidly weaken. By June 28, Darby had diminished to a tropical depression and later to a remnant low off the coast of Mexico. The low persisted for another day before fully dissipating offshore.Stacy R.

By August 15, the wave crossed Central America and entered the Eastern Pacific. Over the following five days, development was relatively slow at first, resulting in forecasters at the NHC not predicting the system to become a tropical cyclone. However, on August 20, a low-pressure area formed and quickly became a tropical depression. At this time, the system was situated roughly 185 mi km on 5 west-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico. Tracking northwestward in response to a mid-level ridge over northwestern Mexico, the depression moved through a region of moderate wind shear, preventing further development. Once over cooler waters on August 21, convection began to wane and the system degenerated into a remnant low later that day.

Tracking westward, the wave eventually crossed Central America and entered the Pacific Ocean on August 26. Gradual organization took place by early September as deepening convection. During September 3, a low-level circulation developed within the system and the NHC classified it as a tropical depression. At this time, the depression was situated roughly 255 mi km on 5 south-southeast of the southern tip of Baja California Sur. Located between a strong ridge over Mexico and trough over the north Pacific Ocean, the system tracked northwestward throughout the remainder of its existence. Maximum sustained winds never exceeded 35 mph km/h on 5 before moving into a region cooler waters and moderate wind shear.

It quickly intensified into a subtropical storm as it curved to the southeast into an area of warmer than normal water temperatures, which fueled the development of thunderstorms. On December 19, the storm crossed the International Date Line back into the western Pacific, and soon after developed a temporary eye-feature. The CPHC estimated peak winds of 60 mph km/h on while in the Western Pacific. The storm soon turned eastward, crossing back into the Central Pacific on December 20 roughly 505 mi km south of Midway Island. At that time, the CPHC designated the system as Tropical Storm Omeka. The storm marked the latest date for a named storm in the basin since reliable records in the 1960s, as well as the first December named storm since Paka in 1997.Timothy A. Craig Central Pacific Hurricane Center December 20, 2010 December 20, 2010 Tropical Storm Omeka Public Advisory One http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/tcpages/archive/2010/TCPCP1.CP012010.001.1012200747Previous Tropical Systems of the Central Pacific http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/ Central Pacific Hurricane Center 2007-02-23 https://web.archive.org/web/20070223223955/http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/ 23 February 2007 live Upon entering the basin, Omeka had sustained winds of 50 mph km/h on, which marked its peak intensity in the basin. The storm was already weakening due to wind shear from an approaching trough, and it soon turned northeastward into an area of cooler waters. After intermittent bursts of convection, Omeka transitioned into an extratropical low on December 21. Around that time, the storm brushed Lisianski Island, part of the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. The low that was formerly Omeka dissipated on December 22.

Names are used one after the other without regard to year, and when the bottom of one list is reached, the next named storm receives the name at the top of the next list. One named storm, listed below, formed within the area in 2010.
