Everything about The Central Pacific Hurricane Center totally explained
The
Central Pacific Hurricane Center of the
United States National Weather Service is the official body responsible for tracking and issuing
tropical cyclone warnings, watches, advisories, discussions, and statements for the Central North Pacific Basin. The Central North Pacific Basin is the region of the Pacific Ocean that's north of the
equator between 140 degrees west longitude and the
International Date Line. In this area, the hurricane season lasts from
June 1 through
November 30.
Based in
Honolulu, Hawai‘i, the CPHC is co-located with the National Weather Service's Honolulu forecast office on the campus of the
University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. The Honolulu forecast office activates the CPHC when tropical cyclones form in, or move into, the Central Pacific region.
The CPHC replaced the previous forecaster, the Joint Hurricane Warning Center, starting in the
1970 season.
Hurricane Naming System
The Central Pacific Hurricane Center uses traditional
Hawaiian names for hurricanes that form within its regional sphere of jurisdiction. It has formed four lists of names to choose from. As soon as all the names are exhausted from the first list, it moves on to the second, then third, then fourth, then back to the first and so on. Unlike the name list in the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific, the names don't start at "A" every year.
