🌀 Georgette · Tropical Storm · 40 mph

Monday, September 20, 2010 · 12:00 PM – 12:00 AM

Tropical Storm Georgette was a short-lived tropical storm that struck Baja California Sur in September 2010. The seventh named storm of the inactive 2010 Pacific hurricane season, Georgette originated from an area of disturbed weather over the eastern Pacific ocean on September 20. The next day, the system was upgraded into a tropical storm a short distance south of Baja California Sur. As the storm moved over the peninsula, it weakened to a tropical depression. It continued north and as such made landfall on mainland Mexico on September 22. Georgette dissipated early the next day while located inland over Sonora. Although officials noted the threat for heavy rainfall across northwest Mexico and Baja California, damage was minimal and no deaths were reported in the country. However, remnant moisture moved into New Mexico, producing flooding that killed one person. Tropical Storm: peak winds of 40 mph (35 knots), lowest pressure 999 mb. September 20 – September 23, 2010. Landfalls: September 22 at 35 mph, 27.4°N 111.1°W; September 22 at 35 mph, 28.0°N 111.1°W. Accumulated cyclone energy: 0.6.
