When is hurricane season in Jalisco?
Hurricane season in Jalisco runs from May 15 to November 30. The peak comes in late August and is less pronounced than in the Atlantic, according to the National Hurricane Center.
A hurricane starts as a cluster of thunderstorms over warm ocean water. Warm, moist air rises from the sea surface. The air pressure near the surface drops, and more air flows in. The rotation of the Earth makes this air spin, counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. Weak winds high in the atmosphere let the system organize. A system with a closed circulation is called a tropical depression. It becomes a tropical storm when its winds strengthen, and the National Hurricane Center gives it a name. It becomes a hurricane when its winds reach hurricane strength.
Sea temperatures around Jalisco are highest in late summer. This is the time of the most storm activity. Storms often form in the warm water off the southwest coast of Mexico and move west or northwest. Storms reach Jalisco from the southwest over the Pacific Ocean. Guadalajara lies inland, away from the coast.
