FOR THE EASTERN NORTH PACIFIC, EAST OF 140 DEGREES WEST LONGITUDE:  
 
ONE NAMED STORM FORMED IN THE EASTERN PACIFIC BASIN DURING  
THE MONTH OF OCTOBER. THIS WAS KRISTY, WHICH BECAME A CATEGORY 5  
HURRICANE WELL AWAY FROM LAND. ONE OTHER TROPICAL DEPRESSION  
DEVELOPED DURING THE MONTH.  
 
THE FORMATION OF ONE NAMED STORM IS BELOW THE LONG-TERM (1991-2020)  
OCTOBER AVERAGE OF TWO NAMED STORMS FORMING IN THE MONTH, AND THE  
FORMATION OF ONE HURRICANE EQUALS THE LONG-TERM AVERAGE OF ONE.  
KRISTY BECOMING A MAJOR HURRICANE EXCEEDS THE LONG-TERM OCTOBER  
AVERAGE OF ONE MAJOR HURRICANE EVERY OTHER YEAR. THE SEASON TO  
DATE ACCUMULATED CYCLONE ENERGY (ACE), WHICH MEASURES THE COMBINED  
STRENGTH AND DURATION OF TROPICAL STORMS AND HURRICANES, IS ABOUT  
70 PERCENT OF THE LONG-TERM (1991-2020) AVERAGE.
