The '''1995 Pacific hurricane season''' was the least active [[Pacific hurricane season]] since [[1979 Pacific hurricane season|1979]],{{EPAC hurricane best track}} and marked the beginning of a multi-decade period of low activity in the basin. Of the eleven tropical cyclones that formed during the season, four affected land, with the most notable storm of the season being [[Hurricane Ismael]], which killed at least 116&nbsp;people in Mexico. The strongest hurricane in the season was Hurricane Juliette, which reached peak winds of {{convert|150|mph|km/h|abbr=on}}, but did not significantly affect land. Hurricane Adolph was an early-season [[Saffir–Simpson hurricane wind scale|Category 4 hurricane]]. [[Hurricane Henriette (1995)|Hurricane Henriette]] brushed the [[Baja California Peninsula]] in early September.

The season officially started on May 15, 1995, in the Eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 1995, in the Central Pacific, and lasted until November 30, 1995.<ref name="season">{{cite web|author=Dorst, Neal |title=When is hurricane season? |url=http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/G1.html |publisher=Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory |access-date=November 25, 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101206195446/http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/G1.html |archive-date=December 6, 2010 |url-status=dead }}</ref> These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. The season saw eleven tropical cyclones form, of which ten became tropical storms.

The [[Accumulated Cyclone Energy]] (ACE) index for the 1995 Pacific hurricane season in total was 100.2 units. Broadly speaking, ACE is a measure of the power of a tropical or subtropical storm multiplied by the length of time it existed. It is only calculated for full advisories on specific tropical and subtropical systems reaching or exceeding wind speeds of {{convert|39|mph|km/h|abbr=on}}.

The seasonal activity during 1995 was below normal, and marked the first of several seasons with lower than normal activity.<ref name="EPAC HURDAT"/> Four tropical cyclones affected Mexico: first, [[Hurricane Flossie (1995)|Hurricane Flossie]] passed within {{convert|75|mi|km}} of [[Baja California Peninsula]], producing moderate winds and killing seven people. Afterwards, Tropical Storm Gil dropped heavy rainfall in Southern Mexico early in its life, though caused no damage. [[Hurricane Henriette (1995)|Hurricane Henriette]] later made landfall near [[Cabo San Lucas]] with winds of {{convert|100|mph|km/h|abbr=on}}, resulting in moderate damage but no deaths. Finally, [[Hurricane Ismael|Ismael]] struck the state of [[Sinaloa]] as a minimal hurricane. Offshore, fishermen were caught off guard by the hurricane, causing 57 of them to drown. On land, Ismael destroyed thousands of houses, leaving 30,000 homeless and killing another 59. Both Hurricanes Flossie and Ismael also produced moisture and localized damage in the Southwestern United States.<ref name="flossietcr"/><ref name="ismaeltcr"/>

Activity in the Central Pacific Ocean was below normal, as well. No tropical storms formed in the basin. For the first time in four years,<ref name="EPAC HURDAT"/> Barbara was the only tropical cyclone to exist within the basin, but it formed in the Eastern Pacific. It entered as a weakening tropical storm, and quickly dissipated, without affecting land.<ref name="cphc">{{cite report|publisher=Central Pacific Hurricane Center|location=Honolulu, Hawaii|year=1996|title=The 1995 Central Pacific Tropical Cyclone Season|access-date=2019-06-09|url=https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/CP1995_Seasonal_TCR.pdf|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190609114012/https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/CP1995_Seasonal_TCR.pdf|archive-date=2019-06-09|url-status=live}}</ref> It was the least active in the basin since 1979, when the basin was completely quiet, as no storms entered the basin that year.<ref name="EPAC HURDAT"/>

Located in an area of warm waters, Adolph exhibited a well-defined outflow pattern, and [[rapid deepening|rapidly strengthened]] to attain hurricane status on June 17 as a banding-type [[eye (cyclone)|eye]] developed. Hurricane Adolph turned to the northwest and attained major hurricane status late that same day. The small eye of the hurricane continued to organize, as very deep convection surrounded the [[eyewall]], and Adolph reached its peak intensity of {{convert|135|mph|km/h|abbr=on}} on June 18, making it a Category&nbsp;4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. Shortly thereafter, the storm weakened, as the upper-level environment became more hostile, and the system moved over progressively cooler waters. On June 19, Adolph turned to the west, and degenerated back into a tropical storm later that day. On June 20, the storm weakened to a tropical depression, and on June 21, Adolph began to dissipate as its center became devoid of deep convection.<ref name="adolphtcr"/>

As Adolph moved north towards Mexico while about {{convert|290|mi|km|abbr=on}} off the coast, the Mexican government issued a [[tropical cyclone warnings and watches|tropical storm warning]] and a hurricane watch from Punta Tejupan to [[Cabo Corrientes, Jalisco]]. When the storm turned to the northwest and later to the west, the government discontinued the warnings as it was determined the storm would not be a threat to land.

A tropical wave moved off the coast of Africa on July 11. It moved westward and quickly developed two areas of convection along the wave axis. One of the areas nearly developed into a tropical depression after moving northwestward, though it failed to organize further and dissipated. The southern area continued westward and ultimately entered the eastern Pacific Ocean on July 21. Thunderstorms along the wave axis became more concentrated a few hundred miles south of the Gulf of Tehuantepec, and the system developed into Tropical Depression Five-E on July 24 while located {{convert|500|mi|km|abbr=on}} southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico.<ref name="dalilatcr">{{cite web|author=Edward N.

Located in an area of weak steering currents and easterly wind shear, the tropical depression drifted to the north-northeast while the convection was displaced up to {{convert|70|mi|km|abbr=on}} west of the circulation. Slightly strengthening occurred, and on July 25 the depression intensified into Tropical Storm Dalila. The storm turned to the northwest, and later to the west-northwest, and remained a minimal tropical storm until July 28 when a decrease in wind shear allowed Dalila to strengthen. A strong [[anticyclone]] developed to the north of the system, causing Dalila to accelerate to the northwest. Late on July 28, Dalila reached a peak intensity of {{convert|65|mph|km/h|abbr=on}} at a position {{convert|570|mi|km|abbr=on}} southwest of Cabo San Lucas. Tropical Storm Dalila slowly weakened after moving over progressively cooler water temperatures, and on August 1 it degenerated into a tropical depression. Dalila turned to the southwest after much of the convection waned, and the system dissipated on August 2.<ref name="dalilatcr"/>

On July 17 a tropical wave exited the coast of Africa, and moved westward. An area of convection along the wave organized slightly on July 18, though the next day the convection diminished. After moving through the [[Windward Islands]] on July 23, deep convection again increased. The system failed to organize further, though convection continued to develop upon entering the eastern [[Pacific Ocean]] on July 27. The cloudiness and thunderstorms became more consolidated off the coast of southern Mexico, and on July 31 Dvorak classifications began on the system.

A large circulation with an area of low pressure persisted in the tropical eastern Pacific Ocean in early August. The large circulation was well-developed by August 7, and the convection concentrated a few hundred miles southwest of [[Acapulco]]. Based on its organization, the National Hurricane Center designated the system Tropical Depression Seven-E. On August 8, the depression intensified into Tropical Storm Flossie, based on ship reports. The storm paralleled the coast of Mexico as it moved northwestward, and after a decrease of wind shear Flossie developed very deep convection over its center. It intensified into a hurricane on August 10, reaching peak winds of {{convert|80|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}} as an embedded warm spot appeared in the center of the storm. After maintaining its peak intensity for 18&nbsp;hours and passing within {{convert|75|mi|km|abbr=on}} of Baja California Peninsula, Flossie weakened over cooler waters and degenerated to a tropical storm on August 12. The storm continued to weaken, and early on August 14 Flossie dissipated.<ref name="flossietcr">{{cite web|author=Edward N.

Hurricane Ismael developed from a persistent area of deep convection on September 12, and steadily strengthened as it moved to the north-northwest. Ismael attained hurricane status on September 14 while located {{convert|210|mi|km|abbr=on}} off the coast of Mexico. It continued to the north, and after passing a short distance east of Baja California Peninsula it made landfall on [[Topolobampo]] in the state of Sinaloa with winds of {{convert|80|mph|km/h|abbr=on}}. Ismael rapidly weakened over land, and dissipated on September 16 over northwestern Mexico.

A [[tropical wave]] moved off the coast of [[Africa]] behind [[Hurricane Luis]] on August 31. Strong outflow from Luis prevented development of the wave, and it continued westward until crossing into the eastern [[Pacific Ocean]] on September 12. Convection increased as it moved through the [[Gulf of Tehuantepec]], and the cloud pattern organized sufficiently to warrant [[Dvorak technique|Dvorak classifications]] for the system on September 15. Based on the development of a low-level circulation, it is estimated the system organized into Tropical Depression Eleven-E on September 16 while located around {{Convert|290|mi|km|abbr=|sp=us}} south of [[Manzanillo, Colima|Manzanillo]], [[Mexico]].<ref name="juliettetcr">{{cite web|author=Richard J.

The eye became better defined as the hurricane moved to the west-northwest, a motion caused by a weak [[ridge (meteorology)|ridge]] to its north, and Juliette attained major hurricane status early on September 19. Possibly due to increased northeasterly [[wind shear]] from an upper-level [[trough (meteorology)|trough]], Juliette stopped its intensification trend, though as it turned to the west it again re-organized. On September 20, while located {{Convert|420|mi|km|abbr=|sp=us}} southwest of [[Cabo San Lucas]], Juliette attained a peak strength of {{Convert|150|mph|kph|abbr=unit|sp=us}}, the strongest tropical cyclone of the season and a Category&nbsp;4 on the [[Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale]].<ref name="juliettetcr"/>

After maintaining its peak intensity for less than 12&nbsp;hours, Juliette began to weaken due to an [[eye (cyclone)#Eyewall replacement cycles|eyewall replacement cycle]]. After turning to the west-northwest, the winds of the hurricane dropped to {{convert|100|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}} by September 22, and the eyewall expanded to about {{Convert|80|mi|km|abbr=|sp=us}} in diameter. The eyewall contracted to about {{Convert|40|mi|km|abbr=|sp=us}}, and as a result Juliette re-strengthened to attain winds of {{Convert|105|mph|kph|abbr=unit|sp=us}}. An eastward moving trough of low pressure turned the hurricane to the north-northeast into an area of cooler water temperatures and increased [[wind shear]]. Juliette quickly weakened to a tropical storm late on September 24. The eastward moving trough moved past the storm, resulting in the motion of Juliette turning to a southeast drift. The convection waned and disappeared on September 25, and on September 26 Juliette dissipated while located {{Convert|450|mi|km|abbr=|sp=us}} west of the southern tip of the [[Baja California Peninsula]].<ref name="juliettetcr"/>

When the motion of Juliette turned to the northeast, [[numerical weather prediction|some computer models]] predicted it to continue northeastward and strike [[Baja California Sur]]. As a result, the government of [[Mexico]] issued a [[tropical cyclone warnings and watches|tropical storm watch]] as a precautionary measure for portions of the state. When the storm weakened rapidly and turned from the coast, the watch was canceled. Juliette remained away from land masses for its lifetime, and as a result there were no reports of damage or deaths.<ref name="juliettetcr"/> In southern [[California]], however, the hurricane produced high waves that created dangerous surfing conditions.<ref>{{cite web|author=Gregory Gross|date=1995-09-29|title=Lobster season arrives with dangerous surf|work=San Diego Union|access-date=2010-04-07|url=https://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/sandiego/access/1246307701.html?dids=1246307701:1246307701&FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:FT&type=current&date=Sep+29%2C+1995&author=GREGORY+GROSS&pub=The+San+Diego+Union+-+Tribune&desc=Lobster+season+arrives+with+dangerous+surf&pqatl=google}}{{dead link|date=July 2024|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> These waves wiped out a fishing derby.<ref>{{cite web|date=1995-09-26|title=SEAL BEACH; Big Surf Foils Plan to Catch Stingrays|work=L.A.

For storms that form in the North Pacific from 140°W to the [[International Date Line]], the names come from a series of four rotating lists. Names are used one after the other without regard to year, and when the bottom of one list is reached, the next named storm receives the name at the top of the next list.<ref name="NHOP 95"/> No named storms formed in the central North Pacific in 2001. Named storms in the table above that crossed into the area during the year are noted (*).<ref name="cphc"/>

=== Retirement ===

The [[World Meteorological Organization]] retired the name ''Ismael'' in the spring of 1996 from future use in the Eastern Pacific. Originally slated to be replaced with ''Israel'', it was ultimately replaced with ''Ivo'' during the [[2001 Pacific hurricane season|2001 season]].<ref name="WaPo name">{{cite news|last=Rosin|first=Hanna|title=From: Augusta Wynd Re: Hurricane Names|date=August 9, 2004|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/2004/08/09/from-augusta-wynd-re-hurricane-names/89eda8f8-07b8-45b9-a421-261b44e10365/|newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]|access-date=February 1, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Soclof|first=Adam|title=A Hurricane named Israel?|date=August 25, 2011|url=https://www.jta.org/2011/08/25/default/a-hurricane-named-israel|publisher=[[Jewish Telegraphic Agency]]|location=New York City|access-date=February 1, 2024|archive-date=January 31, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240131223455/https://www.jta.org/2011/08/25/default/a-hurricane-named-israel|url-status=live}}</ref>


== Season effects ==
This is a table of all of the tropical cyclones that formed in the 1995 Pacific hurricane season. It includes their name, duration, peak classification and intensities, areas affected, damage, and death totals. Deaths in parentheses are additional and indirect (an example of an indirect death would be a traffic accident), but were still related to that storm. Damage and deaths include totals while the storm was extratropical, a wave, or a low, and all of the damage figures are in 1995 USD.
