The 1994 Pacific hurricane season was the final season of the eastern north Pacific's consecutive active hurricane seasons that started in 1982. The season officially started on May 15, 1994, in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 1994, in the central Pacific, and lasted until November 30, 1994. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. The first tropical cyclone formed on June 18, while the last system dissipated on October 26.Eastern North Pacific Tracks File 1949–2007 http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/tracks1949to2007_epa.txt Plaintext March 21, 2008 September 23, 2008 National Hurricane Center https://web.archive.org/web/20080822035410/http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/tracks1949to2007_epa.txt August 22, 2008 This season, twenty-two tropical cyclones formed in the north Pacific Ocean east of the dateline, with all but two becoming tropical storms or hurricanes. A total of 10 hurricanes occurred, including five major hurricanes. The above average activity in 1994 was attributed to the formation of the Spring to late Summer–early Fall 1994 El Niño.ENSO Status The National Weather Service https://www.weather.gov/bou/ensosnow September 2, 2025What are El Niño and La Niña Climate Pattern The FOX Pattern https://www.foxweather.com/learn/el-nino-la-nina-climate-explainer September 2, 2025
Of note in this season is an unusual spree of very intense storms; the season was the first on record to see more than one Category 5 hurricane, as well as the first of four to see three Category 5 hurricanes, a feat later repeated in 2002, 2018 and 2026 seasons. Hurricanes Emilia, Gilma, John, and Olivia all reached a pressure below 930 millibars. Hurricane John was the farthest-traveling tropical cyclone on record at 13180 km mi on. Elsewhere, Hurricane Rosa caused four casualties in Mexico as the basin's only landfalling tropical storm or hurricane and was later responsible for flooding in Texas.
Season summary
This season, 22 tropical cyclones formed in the north Pacific Ocean east of the dateline. All but two of them became tropical storms or hurricanes. In the Eastern Pacific region (140°W to North America), nineteen tropical depressions formed, of which seventeen became tropical storms, nine further intensifying into hurricanes, and five ultimately reaching major hurricanes of Category 3 intensity or higher on the Saffir–Simpson scale. These numbers are slightly above the long-term averages of fifteen tropical storms, nine hurricanes, and four major hurricanes. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/Epac_hurr/background_information.html Background Information: East Pacific Hurricane Season May 22, 2008 Climate Prediction Center September 23, 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080920145315/http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/Epac_hurr/background_information.html September 20, 2008 live
In the Central Pacific Hurricane Center's area of responsibility (140°W to the International Date Line), three depressions, two tropical storms, and one hurricane formed. Overall, there were eleven tropical cyclones, eight tropical storms, five hurricanes, and three major hurricanes that formed or entered the Central Pacific region. http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/ Previous Tropical Systems in the Central Pacific Central Pacific Hurricane Center September 23, 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080916144134/http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/ September 16, 2008 live These numbers are well above the long-term average of four tropical cyclones, two hurricanes, one tropical storm, and two depressions. http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/2006.php 2006 Tropical Cyclones Central North Pacific Andy Nash Tim Craig Sam Houston Roy Matsuda Jeff Powell Ray Tanabe Jim Weyman September 23, 2008 Central Pacific Hurricane Center July 2007 The exceptionally high activity was contributed to by an El Niño ongoing at the time. http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/1997.php The 1997 Central Pacific Tropical Cyclone Season Benjamin Hablutzel Hans Rosendal James Weyman Jonathan Hoag Central Pacific Hurricane Center September 23, 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20081020105520/http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc/summaries/1997.php October 20, 2008 dead

The 1994 Pacific hurricane season set several records. First, three hurricanes reached Category 5 intensity on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale, setting a record later tied in 2002, then tied again in 2018. Second, Hurricane John lasted longer and spent more time tropical than any other tropical cyclone on Earth in recorded history.http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/E6.html Neal Dorst Subject: E6) Which tropical cyclone lasted the longest? FAQ: Hurricanes, Typhoons, and Tropical Cyclones Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory September 24, 2008 https://web.archive.org/web/20080924074803/http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/E6.html September 24, 2008 live However, the former record was later surpassed by Cyclone Freddy in 2023. Tropical Cyclone Freddy is the longest tropical cyclone on record at 36 days: WMO https://wmo.int/news/media-centre/tropical-cyclone-freddy-longest-tropical-cyclone-record-36-days-wmo World Meteorological Organization July 2, 2024 July 6, 2024 Third, 11 tropical cyclones entered or formed in the central Pacific, a record shared with the 1992 season until the 2015 season broke the record. Finally, of the four most intense hurricanes recorded in the Central Pacific, three of them occurred this season.
The season began with the formation of Tropical Depression One-E on June 18 and ended with the dissipation of Tropical Depression Nona on October 26. No named systems formed in May, three in June, four in July, five in August, six in September, two in October, and none in November. The total length of the season, from the formation of the first depression to the dissipation of the last, was 130 days. Moreover, the total accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) of this season was 185*104 kt2, qualifying this season as above-normal.fn1 Accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) is a measure of how active a hurricane season is. ACE is calculated by squaring the windspeed of a cyclone with at least gale-force winds every six hours, summing the results, and dividing that total by 10,000 (i.e. 104 kt2). The National Hurricane Center uses ACE to rank hurricane seasons as above-normal, near-normal, and below-normal.fn2 This ACE value excludes calculations from Hurricanes Li and John when the storms were in the Western Pacific basin.
Systems
Tropical Storm Aletta
EPac Aletta 1994-06-20 1531Z.jpg Aletta 1994 track.png June 18 June 23 45 999
Tropical Depression One-E formed from an area of disturbed weather on June 18. It strengthened to Tropical Storm Aletta the next day. It continued intensifying and reached its peak intensity on June 20. Vertical wind shear began to weaken the storm thereafter. The weakening trend continued, weakening Aletta to a depression on June 21. The system dissipated June 23. Aletta's remnant low, however, could be tracked on satellite images for days following the storm. The low finally dissipated north of Hawaii.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/aletta/prelim01.gif Preliminary Report Tropical Storm Aletta Richard Pasch October 25, 1994 September 23, 2008 1 GIF National Hurricane Center
Tropical Storm Bud
EPac Bud 1994-06-28 0001Z.jpg Bud 1994 track.png June 27 June 29 40 1003
Tropical Depression Two-E formed on June 27 about 575 mi km south-southwest of the tip of the Baja California Peninsula. The depression headed west-northwest, gradually turned to the northwest, and strengthened into Tropical Storm Bud on June 27. Early the next day, Bud peaked in intensity. Shear caused by a nearby upper-level low slowly weakened Bud. Later on June 28, a second center of circulation developed. The two centers started a Fujiwhara interaction. The second center then became dominant and the first one vanished. This confused structure is similar to what happened to Tropical Storm Arlene (1993). This confused structure also weakened Bud to a tropical depression on the afternoon of the same day the second center formed. Bud then headed westward over cool waters and dissipated on June 29.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/bud/prelim01.gif Preliminary Report Tropical Storm Bud Edward Rappaport July 22, 1994 GIF 1 National Hurricane Center September 24, 2008 Tropical Storm Bud spent its entire life over the open ocean far from land areas.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/bud/prelim02.gif Preliminary Report Tropical Storm Bud Edward Rappaport July 22, 1994 GIF 2 National Hurricane Center September 24, 2008
Hurricane Carlotta
EPac Carlotta 1994-07-01 0001Z.jpg Carlotta 1994 track.png June 28 July 5 90 967
The tropical depression that would be Carlotta formed on June 28, which quickly became a tropical storm. Carlotta buffeted Socorro Island with sustained winds of 39 mph km/h on on June 30. A large eye became visible. Because of this, the NHC upgraded the storm to a hurricane. Carlotta peaked in intensity on July 1, as a 105 mi/h km/h on hurricane. It gradually weakened as it moved into cooler waters, dissipating on July 5. Carlotta did not threaten land.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/carlotta/prelim01.gif July 21, 1994 Lixion Avila Preliminary Report Hurricane Carlotta 1 GIF National Hurricane Center September 24, 2008http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/carlotta/prelim02.gif July 21, 1994 Lixion Avila Preliminary Report Hurricane Carlotta 2 GIF National Hurricane Center September 24, 2008
Tropical Storm Daniel
EPac Daniel 1994-07-09 1801Z.jpg Daniel 1994 track.png July 8 July 14 55 993
On July 8, a disturbance located about 1000 mi km southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula developed a circulation and became Tropical Depression Four-E. Convection increased, and the depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Daniel. Upper-level outflow improved, and Daniel peaked in intensity on July 9. Daniel slowly declined as it continued westward. It entered the central Pacific on July 11. Wind shear weakened Daniel as it approached the Big Island, and by July 15 had degenerated into an open wave.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/daniel/prelim01.gif October 14, 1994 Preliminary Report Tropical Storm Daniel Max Mayfield GIF 1 National Hurricane Center 25 September 2008
When Daniel was approaching Hawaii, moderate surf of 4 to 6 ft m impacted the south and southeast shores of the Big Island on July 13 and 14. Daniel's remnants also passed about 100 mi km south of South Point, Hawaii, on July 15. That day, they caused rainfall on windward slopes of the Big Island locally reaching 5 in mm.
Hurricane Emilia
EPac Emilia 1994-07-19 1830Z.png Emilia 1994 path.png July 16 July 25 140 926
On June 29, a weak tropical wave exited the west African coast and traversed the Atlantic, showing no signs of organization or convective activity. Moving within the Intertropical Convergence Zone, the tropical disturbance remained inactive until July 14, when it developed into an area of low pressure roughly 2110 mi km on east-southeast of the Hawaiian Islands. A low-level circulation became evident, and the system was designated as a tropical depression on July 16. Within 12 hours, satellite imagery suggested that the system had intensified into Tropical Storm Emilia with 40 mph km/h on sustained winds.Mayfield, Max Pasch, Richard J. 1996 Eastern North Pacific Hurricane Season of 1994 Monthly Weather Review 124 7 1579 NOAA 10.1175/1520-0493(1996)124<1579:ENPHSO>2.0.CO;2 1996MWRv..124.1579P free Emilia steadily intensified into a minimal hurricane by the next morning, as it moved west-northwest. At 18:00 UTC, Emilia was upgraded to Category 2 status as it crossed 140°W and entered the Central Pacific Hurricane Center's (CPHC) area of responsibility, which noted that Emilia was "well developed." Emilia then proceeded to rapidly intensify, with maximum sustained winds increasing from 105 to 160 mph km/h on over the next 48 hours. At Emilia's peak strength, an Air Force reconnaissance aircraft measured a minimum central pressure of 926 mbar inHg, the lowest pressure ever recorded in a Central Pacific hurricane at that time.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/emilia/prelim01.gif Preliminary Report Hurricane Emilia August 13, 1994 Miles Lawrence September 24, 2008 GIF National Hurricane Center 1nb The Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC) lists Emilia as a Category 5 cyclone, but the National Hurricane Center (NHC) classified Emilia as a strong Category 4 hurricane with 155 mph km/h on sustained winds. However, in 2008, the NHC upgraded the storm into a Category 5 hurricane for 6 hours.
On July 20, Emilia briefly weakened into a Category 4 hurricane, but it was re-upgraded to Category 5 status by the CPHC 12 hours later during the day. Subsequently, Emilia began to weaken for the final time. An upper-level trough in the westerlies caused the cyclone to turn northwest on July 21. Emilia moved over progressively cooler waters, and vertical wind shear from the westerlies negatively impacted the hurricane. The central pressure steadily rose to 965 mbar inHg, and Emilia diminished into a marginal Category 3 hurricane. On July 22, Emilia continued to weaken, and it passed within 170 mi km on of the Big Island. It was the closest approach to the islands. Later, Emilia's peak winds dropped to 75 mph km/h on. Emilia gradually turned west-northwest, and the circulation moved with the trade winds. Emilia weakened into a tropical depression on July 24, and a remnant swirl of stratocumulus clouds was noted. The system dissipated on the same day.
While Emilia passed south of Hawaii, swells of 6 – 10 ft m off were reported near the Puna and Ka‘ū coasts.Lawrence, Miles 1994 http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994/emilia/prenhc/prelim02.gif Hurricane Emilia Preliminary Report (Page 2) NOAA February 23, 2008 Waikiki Beach in Honolulu reported a 5 ft m on high surf.

After maintaining this intensity for roughly 12 hours, Gilma weakened due to wind shear. Late on July 27, Gilma fell to tropical storm status, and by the next day its circulation was exposed from the thunderstorms. Late on July 28, Gilma approached within 100 mi km on of Johnston Atoll.

EPac 01C 1994-08-09 2031Z.jpg One-C 1994 track.png August 9 August 14 30
An area of disturbed weather organized into a tropical depression on August 9 while located 740 mi km southeast of Hilo, Hawaii. The depression moved westward without organizing, and dissipated on August 14.
Moisture from the system produced heavy rainfall over the island of Hawaii, totaling to over 15 in mm. The flooding closed all major roads in Hilo, and was considered the worst flooding in 40 years. The rainfall destroyed two homes and damaged 214, 14 severely. It also damaged roads and businesses. Damage throughout the island totaled to $5 million (1994 USD; $US 5000000 1994 USD).National Climatic Data Center http://www4.ncdc.noaa.gov/cgi-win/wwcgi.dll?wwevent~ShowEvent~203410 Flood Report: Kauai Mountains March 8, 2007 https://web.archive.org/web/20110519212125/http://www4.ncdc.noaa.gov/cgi-win/wwcgi.dll?wwevent~ShowEvent~203410 May 19, 2011 dead mdy-all Flooding occurred in Maui as well, where landslides blocked portions of the Hana Highway.National Climatic Data Center http://www4.ncdc.noaa.gov/cgi-win/wwcgi.dll?wwevent~ShowEvent~203402 Flood Report: Kauai Leeward March 8, 2007 https://web.archive.org/web/20110721060759/http://www4.ncdc.noaa.gov/cgi-win/wwcgi.dll?wwevent~ShowEvent~203402 July 21, 2011 dead mdy-all One-C's point maximum of 15 in mm on makes it Hawaii's ninth wettest known tropical cyclone.

Hurricane John (1994)
Tropical Depression Ten-E formed on August 11 south of Mexico. It headed generally westward, and was upgraded into a tropical storm twelve hours after it formed and was named John. John fluctuated in strength as it headed west, always managing to stay at tropical storm strength. On August 20, steady intensification began, and John was a major hurricane when it entered the central Pacific. It continued westward, reaching Category 5 intensity on August 23. It passed around 245 mi km south of Hawaii, and passed just north of Johnston Atoll on August 26.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/john/prelim01.gif Miles Lawrence January 3, 1995 Preliminary Report Hurricane John National Hurricane Center GIF September 24, 2008 John stayed at hurricane intensity until it crossed the dateline on August 28, becoming a typhoon of the 1994 Pacific typhoon season.

John headed north-northeast until it went extratropical on September 10, thirty one days after it formed.
Ahead of the hurricane, the 1100 people at Johnston Atoll evacuated. On the atoll, John caused $15 million (1994 USD; $US 15000000 1994 USD) in damage. Other than on Johnston, Hurricane John had minor effects in Hawaii. Its remnants also affected Alaska.
Hurricane John was the longest lasting, until it was surpassed by Cyclone Freddy in 2023 and farthest traveling tropical cyclone on Earth in recorded history.Cappucci Matthew 7 March 2023 Deadly cyclone Freddy has become Earth's longest-lived tropical storm https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/03/07/cyclone-freddy-indian-ocean-hurricane/ live https://web.archive.org/web/20230307222002/https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/03/07/cyclone-freddy-indian-ocean-hurricane/ 7 March 2023 7 March 2023 The Washington Post It is also one of six tropical cyclones to exist in all three North Pacific Ocean tropical cyclone basins, and one of the few tropical cyclones to cross the International Dateline more than once.
Hurricane Kristy

On August 28, Tropical Depression Thirteen-E formed about 1300 mi km southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. It was named Tropical Storm Kristy on August 30. As it crossed into the central Pacific, a banding-type eye formed and it became a hurricane.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/kristy/prelim01.gif October 17, 1994 Edward Rappaport September 25, 2008 GIG Preliminary Report Hurricane Kristy 1 Twelve hours later, it reached Category 2 intensity. Kristy weakened steadily from that point due to wind shear. It passed about 300 mi km south of Hawaii, and dissipated on September 5. The lowest central pressure of Kristy is unknown. The last estimate was made when Kristy was still a tropical storm.
As it approached the Hawaiian Islands, a high surf advisory and a high wind warning were issued for the Big Island of Hawaii.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/kristy/prelim02.gif October 17, 1994 Edward Rappaport September 25, 2008 GIG Preliminary Report Hurricane Kristy 2 Its remnants crossed 180th meridian very early on September 7 and was absorbed by a tropical depression which became Typhoon Melissa in the Western Pacific basin.

more details about formation, intensification, and dissipation September 2025
The same tropical wave that spawned Tropical Depression Five in the Atlantic became Tropical Depression Fourteen-E on September 3. It quickly became Tropical Storm Lane. A high pressure ridge centered itself north of Lane, keeping the storm on a westward track. This brought Lane into very favorable conditions, and Lane intensified. When the tropical storm reached hurricane strength, it entered a phase of rapid intensification, reaching winds of about 135 mi/h km/h on, making it a category four hurricane. The high pressure ridge shifted eastward, and allowed Lane to enter unfavorable conditions. Lane dissipated on September 10.National Hurricane Center. Hurricane Lane. Retrieved on March 8, 2007.
Tropical Storm Mele

Tropical Storm Miriam
EPac Miriam 1994-09-19 1745Z.jpg Miriam 1994 track.png September 15 September 21 40 1002
Miriam formed from a weak disturbance on September 15. It strengthened slightly into Tropical Storm Miriam, and dissipated on September 21, having led an uneventful life without impact. In an interesting occurrence, the low-level remnants of Miriam were still visible for weeks after the storm dissipated near 140°W.National Hurricane Center http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/miriam/prelim01.gif Miles Lawrence September 26, 2008 Preliminary Report Tropical Storm Miriam October 30, 1994 GIF 1

Hurricane Olivia
EPac Olivia 1994-09-25 1445Z.jpg Olivia 1994 track.png September 22 September 29 130 923
Hurricane Olivia ultimately formed from a disturbance that had separated from the Intertropical Convergence Zone and become distinct by September 19. The disturbance slowly headed westward and it organized into a tropical depression on September 22 while located about 720 mi km south of the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula. The depression headed west-northwestwards and strengthened into Tropical Storm Olivia on September 22. It steadily intensified and was a hurricane on September 24. It then rapidly strengthened into a powerful major hurricane. It slowly curled to the northwest as it was observed by NOAA research aircraft.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/olivia/prelim01.gif September 26, 2008 Richard Pasch National Hurricane Center 1 Preliminary Report Hurricane Olivia GIF Olivia peaked in intensity on September 25. Meanwhile, a large cyclone off the extreme southern part of California induced a northward path. As Olivia started a small anticyclonic loop, wind shear began to weaken the hurricane. When Olivia was finished the loop, it had weakened to a tropical storm. It then headed westward. It weakened into a tropical depression on September 28 and dissipated the next day.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/olivia/prelim02.gif September 26, 2008 Richard Pasch National Hurricane Center 2 Preliminary Report Hurricane Olivia GIF
At the time, Olivia was the third-most intense Pacific hurricane on record; it has since dropped to eleventh. The storm also had the lowest barometric pressure of a Category 4 Pacific hurricane on record. Hurricane Juliette in 2001 joined Olivia as the most intense Category 4 hurricane on record. Hurricane Odile in 2014 beat both storms when it attained a minimum pressure of 918 mbars. At the time, Olivia was also the most intense September hurricane, but was surpassed by Hurricane Linda in 1997, and is currently the third most intense September hurricane in the Pacific basin.
Tropical Storm Paul
EPac Paul 1994-09-25 2200Z.png Paul 1994 track.png September 24 September 30 40 1003
A nearly stationary cluster of thunderstorms and convection that had been hanging around since September 15 and escaped destruction by Tropical Storm Miriam organized into Tropical Depression Eighteen-E on September 24. It was located between Miriam's remnants and the developing Olivia. It became Tropical Storm Paul on the afternoon of September 25. It peaked in intensity on September 27. Then, upper outflow from the nearby Olivia started shearing the tropical cyclone. Paul had been completely destroyed by September 30.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/paul/prelim01.gif Edward Rappaport October 18, 1994 National Hurricane Center 1 Preliminary Report Tropical Storm Paul GIF September 24, 2008

EPac Rosa 1994-10-13 1901Z.jpg Rosa 1994 track.png October 8 October 15 90 974
An area of disturbed weather organized into a tropical depression at midday on October 8. It had trouble organizing, and advisories were discontinued for a while. The cyclone finally became a tropical storm on October 11 and was named Rosa. It moved glacially, but eventually a trough steered Rosa north and then northeast. Rosa intensified quickly, peaking at Category 2 intensity just before landfall near La Concepción on the morning of October 14. Rosa quickly decayed over the mountains of Mexico, and its cloud shield rapidly accelerated northward through the United States, spreading moisture.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/storm_wallets/epacific/ep1994-prelim/rosa/prelim01.gif Preliminary Report Hurricane Rosa November 22, 1994 Lixion Avila GIF National Hurricane Center September 24, 2008 1

For storms that form in the North Pacific from 140°W to the International Date Line, the names come from a series of four rotating lists. 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. Three named storms, listed below, formed in the central North Pacific in 1994. Named storms in the table above that crossed into the area during the year are noted (*).
