Why are there strong hurricanes in California?
Hurricanes only affect extreme southern California, and then rarely. The peninsula of Baja California, part of Mexico, experiences storms that form along the coast of Central America, in warm tropical waters. Some storms are created by Caribbean hurricanes that struggle across the mountainous terrain and reform in the Pacific. These storms follow the warm currents along the Mexican coast, and sometimes turn east and make landfall there. Other storms continue out into the Pacific toward Hawaii.
Does the atmosphere form hurricanes?
Hurricanes are primarily an atmosphere event, but ocean water plays a key role in how they form.
What is the relationship between the California current and hurricanes?
The California Current typically acts as a barrier that reduces the likelihood of hurricanes making landfall along the West Coast. The cold waters of the California Current can weaken or dissipate hurricanes as they move northwards due to upwelling of cold water along the coast. However, remnants of hurricanes can still bring heavy rainfall and strong winds to parts of California.
