w00t! I got a Hurricane named after me!

October 9-11, 1991 (HURRICANE KEVIN)

KEVIN had been a moderately strong hurricane for well over a week while moving slowly but steadily in a generally northwest direction into the Central Pacific. KEVIN crossed 140W early on the 9th near 21N, which is rather far north and not considered much of a threat to Hawaii. Storms, which move northwest, parallel to the Hawaiian chain while remaining well offshore, as a rule cause an interruption of the normal trades and bring generally sunny and fair weather to the state. This proved to be the case, as a weakening KEVIN continued on a northwest path with its center staying almost 900 miles off the windward coasts of the Hawaiian Islands.

KEVIN was barely at hurricane strength as it entered the Central Pacific. It was subsequently downgraded to a tropical storm at 091800Z near 22N 142W and to a tropical depression at 111200Z near 25N 145W. The final advisory on dissipating Tropical Depression KEVIN was issued at 120000Z near 25N 147W. The remnant circulation, however, did persist a while longer as it slowly drifted north to finally lose its identity late on the 14th near 35N 150W.
