User:Cooper7579/2017 Pacific hurricane season

The 2017 Pacific hurricane season was a very active Pacific hurricane season, with 24 named storms, 13 hurricanes, and 7 major hurricanes forming. The season officially began on May 15, 2017 in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 217 in the central Pacific, while the season ended in both basins on November 30, 2017. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Pacific basin and are adopted by convention. However, tropical cyclogenesis is possible at any time of the year, as demonstrated by the formation of Hurricane Anthony on May 9.
