Systems
Tropical Cyclone One
A small tropical cyclone existed in the Gulf of Tehuantepec from June 3 to 6. It had gale-force winds, and its lowest reported pressure was 29.53 inHg (100.0 kPa).[1]
Hurricane Two
Off the coast of Mexico, a hurricane existed from July 7 to 10. The lowest reported pressure was 28.90 inHg (97.9 kPa).[2]
Tropical Cyclone Three
A tropical cyclone existed from July 17 to 22.[3]
Tropical Cyclone Four
On July 31 and August 1, a tropical cyclone was encountered by a
Tropical Cyclone Five
A tropical cyclone existed on August 16. It had gale-force winds. The lowest reported pressure was 29.79 inHg (100.9 kPa).[3]
Hurricane Six
Far from land, on September 27 to 28, the same ship that encountered the July 31 to August 4 cyclone encountered a hurricane east of the Hawaiian Islands. That ship reported a pressure of 28.53 inHg (96.6 kPa).[4]
Hurricane Seven
South of the Gulf of Tehuantepec, a tropical cyclone formed. It headed west-northwest. On October 24, it re-curved to the north, and made landfall near Cabo Corrientes on October 25. The next day, it dissipated inland.[5] The lowest pressure reported in association with this hurricane was 28.57 inHg (96.7 kPa). It caused rain throughout coastal areas near where it hit.[6] This hurricane also damaged many houses, and blew down trees in mountainous areas.[5] Roads were damaged, and telegraph lines were downed. In Puerto Vallarta, 270 houses were destroyed while 200 families were left homeless. Three people died and many were injured.[7]
Hurricane Eight
A ship encountered a strong tropical cyclone near Acapulco on November 10. On November 11, it was near Manzanillo. It was not seen after that. This tropical cyclone was initially reported to have a pressure of 29.19 inHg (98.8 kPa uncorrected).[8] However, a later report attributes a pressure of 28.15 inHg (95.3 kPa).[9] Even in HURDAT, the modern "best track" database, there was no November tropical cyclone this intense until Hurricane Kenneth in 2011, which broke this record.[10] This hurricane also caused heavy rains to coastal areas of Mexico.[8]
Tropical Cyclone Nine
A tropical cyclone existed from December 22 to 26.[9]
