🌀 Genevieve · Category 5 · 160 mph

Tuesday, July 22, 2014 · 6:00 PM – 6:00 AM

Hurricane Genevieve, also referred to as Typhoon Genevieve, was the first tropical cyclone to track across all three northern Pacific basins since Hurricane Dora in 1999. Genevieve developed from a tropical wave into the eighth tropical storm of the 2014 Pacific hurricane season well east-southeast of Hawaii on July 25. However, increased vertical wind shear caused it to weaken into a tropical depression by the following day and degenerate into a remnant low on July 28. Late on July 29, the system regenerated into a tropical depression, but it weakened into a remnant low again on July 31, owing to vertical wind shear and dry air. Category 5 hurricane: peak winds of 160 mph (140 knots), lowest pressure 918 mb. July 22 – August 13, 2014. Accumulated cyclone energy: 25.4.
