High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Hurricane Calvin was one of three Pacific hurricanes to make landfall in July. The fourth tropical cyclone, third named storm, and second hurricane of the 1993 Pacific hurricane season, Calvin developed from an area of convection to the south of Mexico on July 4. On the following day, the system intensified into a tropical storm, which was named Calvin. Continued strengthening occurred as Calvin turned northward, after originally heading westward. As Calvin was turning northward, it was upgraded to a hurricane on July 6. Calvin eventually turned northwest, and became a Category 2 hurricane. By July 7, Calvin made landfall near Manzanillo as a Category 2 hurricane. Calvin rapidly weakened after landfall, and was a tropical storm when it re-emerged into the Pacific Ocean on early on July 8. Despite this, Calvin did not re-intensify, and instead weakened as it headed rapidly northwestward. As Calvin made a second Mexican landfall near the southern tip of Baja California Peninsula on July 8, it weakened to a tropical depression. Early on July 9, Calvin dissipated shortly after again emerging into the Pacific Ocean.
