When is hurricane season in Colima?
Hurricane season in Colima runs from 15 May to 30 November. 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, anticlockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. Weak winds high in the atmosphere let the system organise. 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 Colima are highest in late summer. This is the time of the most storm activity. Storms often form in the warm water off the south-west coast of Mexico and move west or north-west. Storms reach Colima from the south and south-west over the Pacific Ocean. The Colima volcano stands in the north of the state.
