Has a North Atlantic hurricane ever crossed over Central America and reformed into a hurricane in the Pacific Ocean?
=== === === ===Subject: E15) What tropical storms and hurricanes have moved from the Atlantic to the Northeast Pacific or vice versa?Contributed by Stephen Caparotta, D. Walston, Steven Young and Gary Padgett Here is a list of tropical cyclones that have crossed from the Atlantic basin to the Northeast Pacific and vice versa. The tropical cyclone must have been of at least tropical storm strength in both basins (i.e. sustained winds of at least 34 kt, or 18 m/s). This record only goes back to 1949. Before the advent of geostationary satellite pictures in the mid-1960s, the number of Northeast Pacific tropical cyclones was undercounted by a factor of 2 or 3. Thus the lack of many of these events during the 1960s and earlier is mainly due to simply missing the Northeast Pacific TCs. There has not been a recorded case where the same tropical cyclone crossed into the Northeast Pacific then crossed back into the Atlantic. * Atlantic Hurricane Cesar (July 1996) became Northeast Pacific Hurricane Douglas. * Atlantic Tropical Storm Bret (August 1993) became Hurricane Greg in the Northeast Pacific. * Northeast Pacific Hurricane Cosme became Atlantic Tropical Storm Allison (June 1989). * Atlantic Hurricane Joan (October 1988) became Northeast Pacific Hurricane Miriam. * Atlantic Hurricane Greta (September 1978) became Northeast Pacific Hurricane Olivia. * Atlantic Hurricane Fifi (September 1974) became Northeast Pacific Tropical Storm Orlene. * Atlantic Hurricane Irene (September 1971) became Northeast Pacific Tropical Storm Olivia. * A Northeast Pacific Tropical Storm (September-October 1949) became an Atlantic Hurricane (Storm #10) and made landfall in TX.
Hurricane use in a sentence?
It is wise to avoid the North Atlantic during hurricane season.
Do Hurricans form over warm ocean water?
Indeed they do, and only warm ocean water. That is what hurricanes live on is the warmth of the ocean, which is why when they travel over land, they start to get weaker. The ocean is the warmest during hurricane season, for the Atlantic, hurricane season is June 1st - November 30th, hurricanes are also called cyclones in the Atlantic. For the Pacific, hurricanes are also called typhoons, and the hurricane season runs from May 15th - November 30th. Pacific starts about 1/2 a month earlier than the Atlantic.

Can a hurricane go on for days?
Yes. The longest-lived hurricane in the Atlantic basin was the 1899 San Ciriaco Hurricane, which was tracked for 32 days. It was not a hurricane during that whole time, of course; its intensity varied as it drifted in the North Atlantic. After three weeks, it had become extratropical but then drifted southward and became a tropical storm again and even regained hurricane status. It almost made a complete circuit around the North Atlantic.
