The 2024 Pacific hurricane season is a future event in the annual Pacific hurricane season in the Northern Hemisphere. The season officially begins on May 15, 2024, in the eastern Pacific basin (east of 140°W), and on June 1, 2024, in the central Pacific (between 140°W and the International Date Line); both will end on November 30, 2024. These dates, adopted by convention, historically describe the period in each year when most subtropical or tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these regions of the Pacific Ocean.[1] The National Hurricane Center (NHC) and Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC) will begin issuing regular Tropical Weather Outlooks on May 15, 2024.

Storm names

The following list of names will be used for named storms that form in the North Pacific Ocean east of 140°W during 2024.[2] This is the same list used in the 2018 season. Names retired after the season, if any, will be announced by the World Meteorological Organization in the spring of 2025. The names not retired from this list will be used again in the 2030 season.

For storms that form in the North Pacific from 140°W to the International Date Line, the names come from a series of four rotating lists. Names are used one after the other without regard to year, and when the bottom of one list is reached, the next named storm receives the name at the top of the next list.[2] The following four names are next in line for use in 2024. Formation of a system in this region is uncommon and has not occurred since 2019.

Season effects

This is a table of all the storms that will form in the 2024 Pacific hurricane season. It includes their duration, names, landfall(s), denoted in parentheses, damages, and death totals. Deaths in parentheses are additional and indirect (an example of an indirect death would be a traffic accident), but were still related to that storm. Damage and deaths include totals while the storm was extratropical, a tropical wave, or a low, and all the damage figures are in 2024 USD.
