1984 Pacific Hurricane Season - Storm Names

Storm Names

The following names were used for named storms that formed in the eastern Pacific in 1984. No names were retired, so the list of names was used again in the 1990 season. However, the last name in this list (Wallis) was at some point exchanged with the last name (Winnie) of the previous year's list, to form the modern list. Names that were not assigned are marked in gray.

Famous quotes containing the words storm and/or names:

    I know my lazy, leaden twang
    Is like the reason in a storm;
    And yet it brings the storm to bear.
    I twang it out and leave it there.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    I come to this land to ride my horse,
    to try my own guitar, to copy out
    their two separate names like sunflowers, to conjure
    up my daily bread, to endure,
    somehow to endure.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
