These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most [[tropical cyclones]] form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. This season was the first since 1990 to result in no deaths. ==Pre-season forecasts== The [[United States|U.S.]] [[National Hurricane Center]] predicted a slow year, with only a 10% chance of above-average storm activity in the eastern North Pacific. The pre-season forecast predicted 13 to 15 tropical storms, 6 to 8 hurricanes, and 2 to 4 becoming major hurricanes (Category 3 or higher on the [[Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale]]).{{Fact|date=February 2007}} ==Storms== ''See Also: [[Timeline of the 2004 Pacific hurricane season]]'' ===Tropical Storm Agatha=== {{infobox hurricane small | name=Tropical Storm Agatha | category=storm | type=tropical storm | image=TS Agatha 2004.jpg | track=Agatha 2004 track.png | formed=[[May 22]] | dissipated=[[May 24]] | highest winds=60&nbsp;[[miles per hour|mph]] (95&nbsp;[[kilometres per hour|km/h]]) | lowest pressure=997&nbsp;[[Bar (unit)|mbar]] }} A tropical wave, combined with a stationary trough of low pressure, developed into a tropical depression on [[May 22]] while located 575 miles south-southeast of [[Cabo San Lucas]] in the [[Mexican state]] of [[Baja California Sur]]. The depression moved to the northwest into an area of light vertical shear, and intensified into Tropical Storm Agatha shortly after forming. Agatha reached a peak of 60 mph on the 23rd, though the development of an [[Eye (cyclone)|eye]] feature suggests it could have been stronger. Cool waters and dry air was entrained into the system, causing Agatha to weaken and degenerate into a remnant low on [[May 24]]. The remnant low drifted erratically for two days until dissipating on the 26th. Agatha never affected land.

It moved to the northwest around a mid-level anticyclone, and intensified to reach a peak of 65 mph on the 12th. Cooler water temperatures weakened the storm to a remnant low on the 14th, though it remained large and well-defined. The remnant low continued to the west-northwest until dissipating on [[July 19]] to the west of [[Baja California]]. Blas never affected land.

It entered an area of favorable upper level winds and water temperatures, and formed into Tropical Depression Four-E on [[July 19]]. The depression quickly strengthened to tropical storm status, and slowly intensified to attain hurricane strength on [[July 22]]. Celia reached a peak of 85 mph before moving into an area of cool waters and dry air, thus weakening it. The storm weakened into a tropical depression on the 24th, and dissipated two days later.

Later that day, it was upgraded to Tropical Storm Darby, and only four hours later, at 2 a.m. (0900 UTC) on [[July 27]], was upgraded to Hurricane Darby. It moved due west at this point, aiming directly for the big island of [[Hawaii]]. It reached Category 3 strength on [[July 29]], the first major hurricane in the northeastern Pacific basin since [[2002]]. However, long before it reached Hawaii, it lost strength and dissipated on the evening of [[July 31]]. [http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/2004darby.shtml] The remnants of the storm caused heavy rainfall over [[Hawaii]], though caused no damage or deaths.

Deep convection steadily organized, and the system developed into a tropical depression on [[August 23]] while 415 miles south of the [[Mexico|Mexican]] port of [[Cabo San Lucas]], [[Baja California Sur]]. The depression rapidly organized, and strengthened into a hurricane just 12 hours after forming, an unusual occurrence. Frank continued to strengthen as it moved to the northwest, and reached a peak intensity of 85 mph on the 24th. Shortly after peaking, the hurricane passed over cooler water temperatures, and Frank quickly weakened, degenerating into a remnant low by [[August 26]]. The low drifted to the southwest, and dissipated on the 27th while 750 miles west of the southern tip of the [[Baja California Peninsula]]. The storm never affected land.

Deep convection quickly organized, and the depression intensified into Tropical Storm Georgette shortly after forming. Georgette reached a peak of 65 mph on the 27th, but weakened due to upper level shear. The storm briefly restrengthened on the 28th, but again weakened until degenerating into a remnant low on [[August 30]]. The low continued to the west-northwest until dissipating on [[September 3]] to the east of [[Hawaii]]. Georgette never affected land.

It strengthened as it moved to the northwest, becoming a tropical storm on the 31st. On [[September 1]], Howard intensified into a hurricane, and with favorable conditions the hurricane rapidly intensified to attain peak winds of 140 mph, a Category 4 hurricane on the [[Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale|Saffir-Simpson Scale]]. Cool waters caused the hurricane to weaken to a tropical storm on [[September 4]], and Howard degenerated into a remnant low on the 5th. A ridge of high pressure turned the low to the southwest, a motion it would keep until dissipating on the 10th. [http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/2004howard.shtml] As a Category 4 hurricane, Howard produced 6 to 12 foot waves on the [[California]] coastline. Because it was [[Labor Day]] weekend, 575,000 people went to [[Orange County, California|Orange County]] beaches, resulting in over 1,000 lifeguard rescues. The hurricane did not cause any casualties or damages. <div style="clear: both"></div> ===Hurricane Isis=== {{infobox hurricane small | name=Hurricane Isis | category=cat1 | type=hurricane | image=Hurricane Isis (2004).jpg | track=Isis 2004 track.png | formed=[[September 8]] | dissipated=[[September 16]] | highest winds=75&nbsp;[[miles per hour|mph]] (120&nbsp;[[kilometres per hour|km/h]]) | lowest pressure=987&nbsp;[[Bar (unit)|mbar]] }} A tropical wave, possibly the same one that spanwed Atlantic Ocean [[Hurricane Frances]], developed into Tropical Depression Twelve-E on [[September 8]] while located 530 miles south of the [[Mexico|Mexican]] port of [[Cabo San Lucas]], [[Baja California Sur]]. It moved westward and strengthened into Tropical Storm Isis later on the 8th, though vertical shear weakened the storm to a tropical depression on the 10th. Wind shear decreased, and Isis re-attained tropical storm status on the 12th. It remained a minimal tropical storm until the 15th, when Isis rapidly intensified to hurricane strength. Shortly after reaching hurricane status, Isis moved over cooler water temperatures, causing it to quickly weaken to a remnant low on [[September 16]]. The remnant low drifted to the west until dissipating on the 21st. Isis never affected land.

It slowly moved northwest, being designated Tropical Storm Javier on the morning of [[September 11]]. It was upgraded to a hurricane on the afternoon of [[September 12]], and peaked at Category 4 strength on the [[Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale]] after rapidly strengthening on [[September 13]]. Warnings began to be issued on [[September 15]] for [[Baja California]]. While Javier peaked at Category 4, with windspeeds of 150 mph (240 km/h), it weakened dramatically before striking land south of [[San Ignacio, Baja California Sur]], as only a tropical depression. Its remnants continued over Baja and inland. Javier produced moderate damage across northwestern Mexico. In the United States, the storm's rainfall brought relief to a severe drought. <div style="clear: both"></div> ===Tropical Storm Kay=== {{infobox hurricane small | name=Tropical Storm Kay | category=storm | type=tropical storm | image=Tropical Storm Kay (2004).JPG | track=Kay 2004 track.png | formed=[[October 4]] | dissipated=[[October 6]] | highest winds=45&nbsp;[[miles per hour|mph]] (75&nbsp;[[kilometres per hour|km/h]]) | lowest pressure=1004&nbsp;[[Bar (unit)|mbar]] }} The Intertropical Convergence Zone developed an area of disturbed weather on [[October 3]] while several hundred miles to the southwest of [[Mexico]]. A low-level circulation gradually became more defined, and the system organized into a tropical depression on [[October 4]]. The next day, it strengthened into Tropical Storm Kay, though strong wind shear weakened the storm to a depression 12 hours after becoming named. The depression degenerated into a remnant low on [[October 6]], turned to the southwest, and dissipated on the 7th. Kay never affected land.

With a weak anticyclone near the system, the depression slowly strengthened, and intensified into a tropical storm on the 12th. Lester neared the coast of Mexico, and weakened due to land interaction and interaction with a system to its southwest. The storm weakened to a tropical depression on [[October 13]], and dissipated shortly thereafter. [http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/2004lester.shtml] The [[Mexico|Mexican]] government issued a [[Tropical cyclone warnings and watches|Tropical Storm Warning]] along the [[Guerrero]] coast from [[Punta Maldonado]] to [[Zihuatanejo]]. The storm produced 3 to 5 inches of rainfall across Mexico [http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/2004lester.shtml], causing moderate damage in the [[Acapulco]] area. The rainfall caused at least one mudslide and downed 14 trees.

The wave entered the eastern [[Pacific Ocean]] on [[October 18]], and developed an area of low pressure the next day while south of [[Guatemala]]. It continued slowly westward, and moved to into an area 520 miles south of [[Baja California (peninsula)|Baja California]]. There, it combined with an area of disturbed weather due to two previous tropical waves. The system organized as deep convection concentrated into curved bands, and a tropical depression formed on [[October 25]] while 315 miles south-southeast of the [[Baja California Peninsula]]. The depression moved northward around the western periphery of a high pressure system. Due to anticipated strengthening, the Government of Mexico issued a [[tropical cyclone warnings and watches|tropical storm warning]] for portions of the country's western coast. However, vertical shear prevented further strengthening. The depression continued northward, and made landfall in [[Sinaloa]], midway between [[Guasave]] and [[Topolobampo]], on [[October 26]]. It quickly dissipated.<ref>[http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/2004sixteen-e.shtml NHC Tropical Cyclone Report<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> The depression dropped heavy rainfall in western Mexico, including a peak 24 hour total of 7.1 inches in [[Sinaloa]].<ref>[http://smn.cna.gob.mx/ciclones/tempo2004/pacifico/dt16p/dt16p.html CNA.SMN.
