A Rare Westward Shift: Pacific Cyclone Becomes Atlantic Storm

罕见逆向风暴:太平洋气旋跨洋入大西洋

B2科学347 词约 2 分钟

In a rare weather twist, a Pacific cyclone crossed Central America and reformed as the Atlantic's first named storm of the season. Born in the warm waters of the eastern Pacific, the storm defied typical patterns by completing the overland journey and re-organizing into a new cyclone. For meteorologists, such a westward crossing is highly unusual, making it a notable start to the hurricane season.

Storms that move from one ocean basin to another are uncommon, and when they do, most follow a predictable path—from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Historical records indicate that more than twenty total storms have made a basin crossing, but only a tiny fraction have traveled from the Pacific into the Atlantic. This direction is so rare that it often captures global attention whenever it happens.
