No actual hurricanes have hit the U.S. west coast, though hurricane remnants have. This is because of cold ocean currents in the region. Hurricanes require warm water to maintain their strength and will degenerate over cold water.

Hurricane Ike occurred from September 1 to 14, 2008. It made landfall over the United States on September 13, causing significant damage along the Texas coast.
The most common path for hurricanes to strike the US is along the Gulf Coast and the East Coast, particularly Florida and the Carolinas. This is due to the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean which fuel hurricane development in these regions.
Hurricanes typically form in the Atlantic Ocean and move westward towards the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and East Coast of the U.S. The cold waters and strong wind shear along the West Coast of the U.S. make it less conducive for hurricanes to maintain their strength and impact that region. Additionally, the prevailing wind patterns tend to steer hurricanes away from the West Coast.
