Part of the 1939 Pacific hurricane season
The 1939 California tropical storm , also called the 1939 Long Beach
tropical storm
that hit Southern California in September, 1939. Formerly a hurricane,
it was the only tropical storm to make landfall in California in the
twentieth century. The only other known tropical cyclone to directly
affect Californiais the 1858 San Diego Hurricane , and only three
other eastern Pacific tropical cyclones have caused gale-force winds
in the continental United States. The tropical storm caused heavy
flooding, leaving many dead, mostly at sea. On June 12, a hurricane
was detected. The lowest pressure reported by a ship was 29.10 inHg
(98.5 kPa). The hurricane was last seen June 13. A possible tropical
cyclone was located off the coast of Mexico on June 27. A ship
reported a gale anda pressure of 29.72 inHg (100.6 kPa). The system
was last seen on June 28. On July 19, a tropical cyclone was detected.
A ship reported a pressure of 1,000.7 hectopascals (29.55 inHg). On
July 29, a tropical cyclone was located midway between Manzanillo and
Acapulco. It moved up the coast, and a ship reported a pressure of 100
kPa (30 inHg) on July 29 as the cyclone made landfall in the vicinity
of Manzanillo. A small tropical cyclone was detected on August 31. A
ship reported gales and a pressure of 100.33 kilopascals (29.63 inHg).
From September 4 to 7, the remnants of a hurricane brought heavy rain
to Southern California. Blythe, California , got over a year worth of
rain, and Imperial, California , got more than two years' worth. The
flooding caused much damage in Mecca, California , and 3 feet (0.91 m)
of water swamped Thermal, California It is not known whether the
tropical cyclone that caused these rains is the same system as that
detected on August 31.
A tropical cyclone was first detected south of Acapulco on September
5. It intensified into a hurricane and moved northwestward. A ship
sailing through the eye reported a pressurereading of 94.82
kilopascals (28.00 inHg), its barometer 's lowest setting. Remnants of
this tropical storm, in association with a trough , caused rain of up
to 4 inches (100 mm) in southern California on September 11 and 12. On
September 5, a tropical cyclone formed off the coast of Costa Rica.It
also headed northwest and dissipated over the southern part ofBaja
California on September 15. The lowest reported pressure was 100.41
kilopascals (29.65 inHg). From September 19 to 21, remnants of this
tropical cyclone caused rain measuring up to 3 inches (76 mm) in
Southern California. Main article: 1939 California tropical storm
On September 14, a tropical cyclone formed off the coast of Central
America. This tropical storm tracked northwestward and intensified
into a hurricane. 97.1 kPa (28.7 inHg) (measured) or lower. The
hurricane recurved gradually to the northeast and weakened over cool
seas. On September 25, this tropical storm made landfall near Long
Beach, California , and dissipated inland. This tropical storm caught
Southern Californians unprepared. It brought heavy rain and flooding
to the area, which killed 45 people. Later on October 23, a tropical
cyclone formed south of Cabo Corrientes . Itintensified and headed
roughly due north. A steamer, the Nevadan , caught in the eye of this
extremely powerful, very intense hurricane, recorded a (corrected)
central pressure of 27.45 inHg (93.0 kPa). Even with modern tropical
cyclone observation techniques available, this reading still
qualifiesthis cyclone as one of the most intense on record; the next
hurricane in the modern record known to have a lower measured minimum
central pressure is Hurricane Ava (1973) . Besides battering the
Nevadan , this hurricane also disrupted shipping. It made landfall
near Cabo Corrientes on October 25 and dissipated shortly thereafter.
The hurricane onshore caused heavy damage to crops, lines of
communication, and several coastal towns.
