Eleven named storms formed in the East Pacific Hurricane Basin during 2007, which is below the recent ten-year average. Four of these storms were classified as hurricanes and one of these was a major hurricane. The most notable hurricane of the season was Flossie, which became a Category 4 hurricane on August 11, threatening the Hawaiian Islands. The storm weakened slightly and passed south of the Big Island of the Hawaii on the 13th of August. Two tropical storms made landfall in Mexico/Guatemala during the 2007 season. Tropical Storm Barbara came ashore near the border of Mexico and Guatemala on June 2nd. Hurricane Henriette was the only East Pacific Hurricane to make landfall this year, but it made landfall twice: once over the tip of the Baja California peninsula of Mexico on September 4th, and once again the next day near Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico.
