1955 Pacific Hurricane Season
The 1955 Pacific hurricane seasons began on May 15, 1955, in the northeast Pacific Ocean and on June 1, 1955, in the central Pacific. They ended on November 30, 1955. These dates conventionally delimit the time of year when most tropical cyclones form in northeast Pacific Ocean. Before the weather satellite, satellite age started in the 1960s, data on east Pacific hurricanes is extremely unreliable. Most east Pacific storms are of no threat to land. Six tropical systems were observed this season. Seasonal summary Systems Hurricane One Hurricane One existed from June 6 to June 8. Tropical Storm Two Tropical Storm Two existed from June 8 to June 11. Tropical Storm Three Tropical Storm Three existed from July 6 to July 9. Tropical Storm Four Tropical Storm Four developed on September 1 and moved away from Mexico while weakening. This stormed dissipated on September 5. Tropical Storm Five In early October, the remnants of Hurricane Janet entered the Pacific Ocean, wh ...

1955–56 South-West Indian Ocean Cyclone Season
The following is a list of South-West Indian Ocean tropical cyclones in the 1950s decade, before the 1959–60 season. Storms February 1950 Mozambique Channel cyclone A cyclone was first observed northeast of Madagascar on February 9. The storm moved west-southwestwards, crossing northern Madagascar on February 13. The storm moved across the Mozambique Channel and struck eastern Mozambique on February 15. The circulation moved inland across much of Africa, eventually reaching northern Namibia (then known as South-West Africa). April 1952 Tanzania cyclone On April 13, 1952, a tropical cyclone was first observed north of the Comoros. The cyclone moved west-southwestwards towards the coast of Africa at a low latitude. On April 15, the ship ''M.V. Tayari'' encountered the eye of the cyclone and observed a minimum pressure of . Later that day, the cyclone moved ashore in southeastern Tanzania near Lindi, where maximum sustained winds were estimated at ; this m ...

1955–56 South Pacific Cyclone Season
The following is a list of all reported tropical cyclones within the South Pacific Ocean to the east of 160°E during the 1950s decade. __TOC__ Systems 1949–50 *January 22 – 27, 1950 – A possible tropical cyclone existed to the north of New Caledonia. *January 29 – February 6, 1950 – A tropical cyclone developed in between the Northern and Southern Cook Islands and passed to the south of the Samoan Islands. Moving westwards the system passed within of Niuatoputapu during January 31, before it passed near Niuafoou during February 1. The system then moved south-westwards through the Lau Islands during February 2, where it caused gale-force winds but no significant damage. *February 20 – March 1, 1950 – During February 25, a tropical cyclone moved westwards through the Lau Islands and between Fiji's main islands of Viti Levu and Vanua Levu. The system subsequently turned south-southeastwards during the following day, while its movement sl ...

1954–55 Australian Region Cyclone Season
The following is a list of all reported tropical cyclones within the Australian region between 90°E and 160°E in the 1950s. 1950–51 *December 10–11, 1950 – A tropical cyclone passed overland to the west of Groote Eylandt, where hurricane-force winds generated a storm surge. *January 10–24, 1951 – During January 10, a tropical cyclone moved into the Gulf of Carpentria near Karumba. The system subsequently moved around the Gulf of Carpertaria, before it made landfall on Queensland near Karumba during January 22. *January 25, 1951 – A tropical cyclone became slow moving near Fraser Island. *February 20–28, 1951 – A tropical cyclone impacted the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia. *March 15, 1951 – A tropical cyclone made landfall on Queensland near Maryborough. *March 24 – April 2, 1951 – A tropical cyclone impacted the Solomon Islands. 1951–52 *January 19–20, 1952 – A tropical cyclone made landfall ne ...

1955 Pacific Typhoon Season
The 1955 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1955, but most tropical cyclones tend to form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean between June and December. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The season produced a large number of tropical storms but most of them were weak, and sources from American typhoon warning agencies often grossly overestimated the maximum wind speed of many systems which could not properly match with their respective central pressure observations. The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator and west of the International Date Line. Storms that form east of the date line and north of the equator are called hurricanes; see 1955 Pacific hurricane season. Tropical Storms formed in the entire west Pacific basin were assigned a name by the Fleet Weather Center on Guam. Systems ImageSize = width:1002 hei ...

1955 Atlantic Hurricane Season
The 1955 Atlantic hurricane season was, at the time, the costliest season ever recorded, just ahead of the previous year. The hurricane season officially began on June 15, 1955, and ended on November 15, 1955. It was an extremely active season in terms of accumulated cyclone energy (ACE), but only slightly above average in terms of storm formation, with 13 recorded tropical cyclones. The first reported system of the year, January's Hurricane Alice, was later found to have formed on December 30, during the 1954 season. Alice caused relatively minor impact as it tracked through the Lesser Antilles and eastern Caribbean Sea. The first tropical cyclone to form in 1955, Tropical Storm Brenda, caused two deaths and minor damage along the Gulf Coast of the United States in early August. The quick succession of Hurricanes Connie and Diane caused significant flooding in the Northeastern United States, with nearly $1 billion (1955 USD, $11.05 billion in 20 ...

Pacific Hurricane Season
A Pacific hurricane is a tropical cyclone that develops within the northeastern and central Pacific Ocean to the east of 180°W, north of the equator. For tropical cyclone warning purposes, the northern Pacific is divided into three regions: the eastern (North America to 140°W), central (140°W to 180°), and western (180° to 100°E), while the southern Pacific is divided into 2 sections, the Australian region (90°E to 160°E) and the southern Pacific basin between 160°E and 120°W. Identical phenomena in the western north Pacific are called typhoons. This separation between the two basins has a practical convenience, however, as tropical cyclones rarely form in the central north Pacific due to high vertical wind shear, and few cross the dateline.

List Of Pacific Hurricanes
This is a list of notable Pacific hurricanes, subdivided by reason for notability. Notability means that it has met some criterion or achieved some statistic, or is part of a top ten for some superlative. It includes lists and rankings of Pacific hurricanes by different characteristics and impacts. Characteristics include extremes of location, such as the northernmost or most equator-ward formation or position of a tropical cyclone. Other characteristics include its central pressure, windspeed, category on the Saffir–Simpson scale, tropical cyclogenesis, cyclogenesis outside of a normal Pacific hurricane, hurricane season's timeframe, or storms that remain unnamed despite forming after tropical cyclone naming began in 1960. Another characteristic is how long a system lasted from formation to dissipation. These include the cost of damage, the number of casualties, as well as meteorological statistics such as rainfall point maximum, wind speed, and minimum pressure. Impact Retir ...
