About me

Hello there! I'm CycloneYoris! I've been a registered editor since 2015. I used to read and edit Wikipedia occasionally as an unregistered user (IP) for about eight years, circa 2007, until I finally decided to create my own account.

I spend most of my time editing articles on tropical cyclones (mainly storms from the Eastern Pacific and Atlantic). I also enjoy reverting vandalism and editing any other topic that catches my eye!

Articles I've recently edited (including a few of my Top edited pages)

The 2024 Pacific hurricane season was a slightly below-average yet destructive season that saw 15 tropical cyclones develop overall, of which 13 developed into named storms. Among them, 5 developed into hurricanes, of which 3 intensified into major hurricanes. The season officially began on May 15 in the eastern Pacific basin (east of 140°W) and on June 1 in the central Pacific (between 140°W and the International Date Line); both ended on November 30. These dates, adopted by convention, historically describe the period in each year when most subtropical or tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these regions of the Pacific Ocean. For the third consecutive year, there were no pre-season tropical cyclones in either basin, and the season got off to the slowest start of any Pacific hurricane season on record in the satellite era, with the first eastern Pacific tropical storm, Aletta, not forming until July 4. The first (and only) central Pacific tropical cyclone, Hurricane Hone, formed on August 22, becoming the first named storm to develop in the basin since 2019. The final system of the season, Tropical Depression Fourteen‑E, dissipated on November 7.

Several storms impacted land this year. Hurricane Hone dropped very heavy rainfall over the Big Island of Hawaii after passing just offshore at Category 1 strength. The remnants of Hurricane Gilma impacted the islands several days later, though neither cyclone caused significant damage. Tropical Storm Ileana grazed the coast of northwestern Mexico, resulting in flooding. Hurricane John made landfall on southern Mexico twice after rapidly intensifying to a Category 3 hurricane, causing 29 deaths and an estimated $2.45 billion in damage. The strongest storm of the season was Hurricane Kristy, which became the first Category 5 Pacific hurricane in a non-El Niño year since Celia in 2010.

Jes in 2011

Jes Brieden (born May 10, 1974), known professionally as Jes (stylized as JES), is an American singer, songwriter, producer, composer, and DJ. She is a co-founder of the US dance band Motorcycle, who released the song "As the Rush Comes" in 2003. (Full article...)

Hurricane Odile after its peak intensity. Odile had the lowest atmospheric pressure of a Category 4 hurricane in the Pacific basin, east of 180°W, at 918 mbar (hPa; 27.11 inHg).

Category 4, the second-highest classification on the Saffir–Simpson scale, is used for tropical cyclones that have winds of 130–156 mph (209–251 km/h; 113–136 kn). The division of the eastern and central Pacific basins occurs at 140° W; the eastern Pacific covers area east of 140° W, while the central Pacific extends between 140° W to 180° W. Both basins' division points are at 66° N as a northern point and the equator as the southern point. As of 2026^[update]
'"`UNIQ--nowiki-0000001E-QINU`"'
, 147 hurricanes have attained Category 4 status in the northeastern Pacific basins. This list does not include storms that also attained Category 5 status on the scale.

Numerous climatological factors influence the formation of hurricanes in the Pacific basins. The North Pacific High and Aleutian Low, usually present between January and April, cause strong wind shear and unfavorable conditions for the development of hurricanes. During its presence, El Niño results in increased numbers of powerful hurricanes through weaker wind shear, while La Niña reduces the number of such hurricanes through the opposite. Global warming may also influence the formation of tropical cyclones in the Pacific basin. During a thirty-year period with two sub-periods, the first between 1975 and 1989 and the second between 1990 and 2004, an increase of thirteen Category 4 or 5 storms was observed from the first sub-period.

The 2023 Pacific hurricane season was an active and highly destructive Pacific hurricane season. In the Eastern Pacific basin (east of 140°W), 17 named storms formed; 10 of those became hurricanes, of which 8 strengthened into major hurricanes – double the seasonal average. In the Central Pacific basin (between 140°W and the International Date Line), no tropical cyclones formed for the fourth consecutive season, though four entered into the basin from the east. Collectively, the season had an above-normal accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) value of approximately 168 units. This season saw the return of El Niño and its associated warmer sea surface temperatures in the basin, which fueled the rapid intensification of several powerful storms. It officially began on May 15, 2023 in the Eastern Pacific, and on June 1 in the Central; both ended on November 30. These dates, adopted by convention, historically describe the period in each year when most tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these regions of the Pacific.

Forecasts at the outset of the 2023 season predicted busier-than-normal tropical cyclone activity in the eastern Pacific basin, largely due to El Niño. However, no tropical cyclones developed until June 27, when Hurricane Adrian initially formed, becoming the latest first-named Eastern Pacific tropical storm since Tropical Storm Agatha in 2016. In July, Hurricane Calvin became the season's first major hurricane, later passing just south of the Big Island of Hawaii as a tropical storm, bringing widespread rainfall to the area and neighboring Maui. In August, Category 4 Hurricane Dora passed south of the Hawaiian Islands and contributed to strong gradient winds over Hawaii, which in turn helped fan the flames of multiple devastating wildfires. Later that month, Hurricane Hilary made landfall as a tropical storm in Baja California, later bringing torrential rainfall and gusty winds to the Southwestern United States. In early September, Hurricane Jova, the first Category 5 hurricane in the basin since 2018, caused rainfall, high waves and rip currents in areas previously affected by Hilary. (Full article...)

Tropical cyclones are named for historical reasons and so as to avoid confusion when communicating with the public, as more than one tropical cyclone can exist at a time. Names are drawn in order from predetermined lists. They are usually assigned to tropical cyclones with one-, three-, or ten-minute windspeeds of at least 65 km/h (40 mph). However, standards vary from basin to basin, with some tropical depressions named in the western Pacific whilst tropical cyclones have to have gale-force winds occurring more than halfway around the center within the Australian and southern Pacific regions.

The official practice of naming tropical cyclones started in 1945 within the western Pacific. Naming continued through the next few years, and in 1950, names also started to be assigned to tropical storms forming in the northern Atlantic Ocean. In the Atlantic, names were originally taken from the World War II version of the phonetic alphabet, but this was changed in 1953 to use lists of women's names which were created yearly. Around this time naming of tropical cyclones also began within the southern and central parts of the Pacific. However naming did not begin in the eastern Pacific until 1969, with the original naming lists designed to be used year after year in sequence. In 1960, naming also began in the southwestern Indian Ocean, and in 1963 the Philippine Meteorological Service started assigning names to tropical cyclones that moved into or formed in their area of responsibility. Later in 1963, warning centers within the Australian region also commenced naming tropical cyclones. In 2004, the India Meteorological Department began naming cyclones that formed in the northern Indian Ocean, and in 2011, the Brazilian Navy Hydrographic Center started using a naming list to name tropical cyclones over the southern Atlantic Ocean.

Storm index articles

Even though I haven't created any articles for this project, I have created many "Storm Set Index" articles (previously known as storm disambiguation pages), which although few editors seem to notice, they are still necessary for disambiguation purposes.
