More than 5,000 residents were forced to evacuate in Punnaikayal after the Thamirabarani River topped its banks and submerged surrounding areas in 1 m (3.3 ft) of water. Fifteen people were killed after a truck was swept away along the Noyyal River. Along a 70 km (43 mi) swath from Tuticorin northward, a 1 to 1.5 m (3.3 to 4.9 ft) high storm surge affected inundated areas up to 300 m (980 ft) inland. In Kerala, the Thenmala Dam overflowed and troops from the Indian Army were deployed to evacuate residents downstream.

Nearly 100,000 homes were damaged or destroyed, mostly in Tamil Nadu, rendering thousands homeless. Train service across southern India was suspended while many Indian Airlines flights were canceled. Damage from the storm was estimated at $69 million. At least 160 people were also reported as missing. Despite passing over Sri Lanka, no reports of damage were received there. On November 23, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa Jayaram requested ₹5.3 billion (US$208 million) for flood relief.


1992 North Indian Ocean cyclone season, Systems, Extremely Severe Cyclonic Storm Forrest
On November 15, Pacific Tropical Storm Forrest crossed the Malay Peninsula and emerged over the Andaman Sea. Tracking around a subtropical ridge, the system gradually turned northward over the Bay of Bengal and attained hurricane strength on November 17. It reached its peak intensity on November 20 as a Category 4-equivalent cyclone on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale with winds of 230 km/h (145 mph). The IMD assessed Forrest to have attained three-minute sustained winds of 185 km/h (115 mph) and a pressure of 952 mbar (hPa; 28.11 inHg). Hostile environmental conditions soon affected the cyclone as it turned abruptly eastward. Forrest subsequently made landfall in northwestern Myanmar as a weakening system on November 21 before dissipating early the next day.

On November 20, as Forrest reached its peak intensity, fears arose across Bangladesh that a repeat of the catastrophic April 1991 cyclone would take place. As a result, mass evacuation plans were enacted across coastal areas of the country, with plans to relocate up to 2 million people. Ultimately, the storm's abrupt eastward turn spared Bangladesh of another disaster and the successful evacuation of 600,000 residents spared countless lives. Only two deaths took place in the country and overall damage was light.

1992 Oakland Athletics season
The Oakland Athletics' 1992 season was the team's 25th in Oakland, California. It was also the 92nd season in franchise history. The team finished first in the American League West with a record of 96-66.


1992 Oakland Athletics season
The Athletics entered the 1992 season with high hopes. The team, in particular, hoped to see its pitching staff rebound from a dreadful 1991 performance; the Athletics' team earned run average (ERA) had ballooned from 3.18 in 1990 (1st of 14 AL teams) to 4.57 in 1991 (13th of 14 AL teams). The Athletics also hoped to continue their success on offense; in 1991, the team had scored a respectable 760 runs (the fifth-highest total in the AL). The offense, as always, was centered on superstars Mark McGwire, José Canseco, and Rickey Henderson.


1992 Oakland Athletics season
The Athletics' hopes were largely answered. The team's pitching staff finished the season with an ERA of 3.73; this was the fourth-best average in the American League. Starter Dave Stewart, after an abysmal 1991 campaign, lowered his ERA to a respectable 3.66; his resurgence was mirrored by Bob Welch, who returned to near-ace status with a 3.27 ERA. The offense performed similarly well. Mark McGwire, following an awful 1991 campaign (in which he batted just .206 with 22 home runs), posted a .268 average in 1992 (while knocking in 42 homers).


1992 Oakland Athletics season
Rickey Henderson stole 48 bases, Mike Bordick hit exactly .300, and José Canseco slugged another 22 home runs. Canseco was famously traded to the Texas Rangers, mid-game, on August 31; the Athletics received outfielder Rubén Sierra, reliever Jeff Russell, and starter Bobby Witt. The Athletics again scored the fourth-most runs in the American League in 1992.


1992 Oakland Athletics season
The bulk of the Athletics' 1992 accolades, however, went to closer Dennis Eckersley. Eckersley saved an MLB-leading 51 games over the course of the season; in the process, he posted a 7-1 record with a 1.91 ERA. Eckersley's efforts netted him both the 1992 AL Cy Young Award and the 1992 AL MVP Award. Eckersley remains the last reliever (and remained, until 2011, the last pitcher of any kind) to be named MVP in either league.


1992 Oakland Athletics season
The Athletics finished the 1992 season six games ahead of the second place (defending champion) Minnesota Twins. The division championship was their fourth in five years. In the ALCS, the A's faced a strong Toronto Blue Jays side. The first three games of the series were decided by two runs or fewer; at the end of the Game 3, Oakland trailed Toronto 2 games to 1. In Game 4, Oakland led the Jays 6-1 after seven innings; a furious Toronto rally, however, resulted in a 7-6 Toronto victory (and a 3-1 Blue Jays series lead). The Athletics never recovered from the collapse, and ultimately succumbed to the favored Jays in six games.


1992 Oakland Athletics season
The 1992 season signaled the end of an era in Oakland. The team would miss the postseason in each of the next seven seasons; by the time of the Athletics' next division title (2000), no members of the 1992 team remained in Oakland.

1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 1
The first game of the series had Oakland's Dave Stewart face off against Toronto's Jack Morris. The A's put up a three-spot against Morris in the second inning, as Mark McGwire and Terry Steinbach hit back-to-back home runs. Stewart held the Jays scoreless until the fifth, when catcher Pat Borders homered to put Toronto on the board. Dave Winfield added another solo shot for Toronto in the sixth, and in the eighth a base hit by John Olerud scored Winfield to tie the game.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 1
However, Oakland took the lead right back in the top of the ninth, when Harold Baines led off the inning with a solo home run. A's closer Dennis Eckersley then shut down the Jays in the bottom half of the inning to preserve a 4-3 victory and give the Athletics a 1-0 lead in the series.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 2
Game 2 saw Oakland's Mike Moore face the Jays' David Cone. The game was initially a pitchers' duel, as Moore and Cone put up zeroes for the first four innings. In the bottom of the fifth, however, Toronto's Kelly Gruber hit a two-run home run off Moore to give the Jays the lead. In the seventh, Gruber doubled, took third on a grounder, and came home on a Manuel Lee sacrifice fly to extend the Toronto lead to three. The A's avoided a shutout in the top of the ninth, when Rubén Sierra tripled and scored on a single by Baines, but that was all they could muster against Toronto closer Tom Henke. The Jays took the second game and tied the series at a game apiece.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 3
The series shifted to Oakland for Game 3, as Juan Guzmán took the hill for the Jays while Ron Darling toed the rubber for the A's. Toronto struck in the second, when Winfield reached on an error by Athletics' third baseman Carney Lansford, moved to third on a wild pitch by Darling, and scored on a single by Candy Maldonado. Roberto Alomar hit a solo home run in the fourth to give the Jays a 2-0 lead, but in the bottom half of the inning the A's tied the game with RBI base hits by Baines and Steinbach.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 3
However, the very next inning, Maldonado hit a solo homer of his own, and after Oakland manager Tony La Russa gave Darling the hook in the seventh, the Jays added two unearned runs due to an error by Lance Blankenship and a triple by Lee, making it a 5-2 game. Although the A's cut TO's lead down to a run, the Jays tacked on single runs in the eighth and ninth. Henke retired the Athletics in order in the ninth, giving Toronto a 7-5 victory and a 2-1 edge in the series.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 4
For the fourth game, Toronto threw Morris against Oakland's Bob Welch. In the second inning, Olerud tagged Welch for a solo homer to give the Jays the lead. However, the Athletics came back in a big way with a five-run third and tacked on another run in the sixth when Sierra doubled Rickey Henderson home, giving Oakland a seemingly secure 6-1 advantage. In the top of the eighth, however, La Russa pulled Welch, who had been cruising along, and went to his bullpen. The Jays capitalized by scoring three runs off hits by Joe Carter, Olerud, and Maldonado, cutting the A's lead to 6-4.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 4
For the top of the ninth, La Russa turned to Eckersley to shut down the top of the Jays' order and tie the series. Although he had given up two of Toronto's three runs in the previous inning, the Oakland closer was still fearsome. Devon White led off with a single to left, and moved to third on an error by Henderson. Roberto Alomar was up next, and he hit a high drive to right field that disappeared behind the wall for a game-tying two-run home run. This turned out to be a crucial point of the series, as it forced the game into extra innings and gave the Jays a chance to win.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 4
Indeed, in the top of the 11th, Toronto came through. Derek Bell walked, moved to third on a Maldonado single, and came home on a sacrifice fly by Borders to give the Jays a 7-6 lead. Henke shut the door on the A's in the bottom of the inning, handing Toronto a 3-1 series lead.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 5
Game 5 pitted Toronto's Cone against Oakland's Stewart. In the bottom of the first, Sierra cracked a two-run home run off Cone, and the next inning an error by Cone proved costly as Henderson got on base and then scored on a single by Jerry Browne. Although Winfield broke the shutout with a homer off Stewart in the fourth, the unearned runs continued to hurt the Jays, as the A's added three runs in the fifth (only one of which was earned) for a 6-1 lead. Toronto managed only one more run in the seventh when White singled Gruber home, and Stewart went the distance as the Athletics took a 6-2 victory and cut the Jays' advantage in the series to 3-2.


1992 Oakland Athletics season, American League Championship Series, Game 6
The series came back to Toronto for Game 6, with Guzmán going against Moore. In the bottom of the first, the Jays took a lead they would never relinquish, as White reached on an error by Henderson and scored on a homer by Carter, making it 2-0. In the third, Olerud lashed an RBI double and Maldonado followed with a three-run shot, extending the advantage to 6-0. McGwire put Oakland on the board in the sixth with a single that scored Sierra, but the A's could only manage another run against the Jays. In the ninth, Henke took the mound and induced a flyout from Sierra to end a 9-2 win, making Toronto the first non-U.S.-based team to win a pennant in Major League history.

The 1992 Odisha liquor deaths took place in May 1992 in Cuttack, Odisha State, India. More than 200 people died after drinking illegally brewed poisonous liquor; another 600 people were hospitalised. It was one of the biggest tragedies of its kind in India.


1992 Odisha liquor deaths
Since the tragedy, several women's organisations in the state have demanded total prohibition on the sale and manufacture of liquor. The state government imposed a ban on alcohol in 1994; however, the Indian National Congress government that came to power in 1995 lifted prohibition on the ground that it was causing huge losses in revenue. In 2000, the police arrested liquor kingpin Surendranath Das, alias Belu, in the case. The accused was convicted in the lower court and upon appeal, Odisha High Court confirmed the life sentence awarded to Belu alias Surendra Das, the prime accused in the 1992 Cuttack hooch tragedy.

Jim Bradley was appointed as the third interim leader which he kept until the leadership convention. The leadership race officially began on November 7, 1991, 90 days before a convention which was held on the weekend of February 7–9, 1992 in Hamilton, Ontario.


1992 Ontario Liberal Party leadership election, Candidates
Six caucus members entered the race. They were Charles Beer, Murray Elston, Steve Mahoney, Lyn McLeod, David Ramsay, and Greg Sorbara. Mahoney was first off the mark when he officially announced his candidacy on November 7, 1991.


1992 Ontario Liberal Party leadership election, Procedure
The party adopted a procedure to elect a leader that included elements of both direct elections and a leadership convention. Members who had been party members for at least 90 days would choose delegates for the convention. Delegates sent by each riding varied depending on their support for individual candidates. Each delegate was committed to vote for a particular candidate on the first ballot but were free to choose on subsequent ballots. The hybrid format was an effort to include local democracy but with the media attention that follows a traditional convention. A spending cap of $250,000 was placed for each candidates expenses and $671,000 was budgeted for the convention weekend.


1992 Ontario Liberal Party leadership election, Convention
Elston led until 5th ballot when he was defeated by McLeod by a slim margin of 9 votes out of a total 2,315 votes cast. Mcleod's election was the first time a woman was chosen to lead one of the three main Ontario parties. McLeod's victory was attributed to two factors. She made a deal with second-tier leadership contender Charles Beer. The Elston camp had an unexpectedly large lead on the first ballot, as McLeod lent Beer some of her delegates to give him a respectable showing, and Elston's margin dropped significantly when the eliminated Beer threw his full support behind McLeod.


1992 Ontario Liberal Party leadership election, Convention
In her acceptance speech she promised to balance the budget and defeat the New Democrats in next election. After the convention, she revealed that she had spent $272,947 on campaign, breaking the spending cap. Elston also admitted overspending with expenses totalling $305,815.

1992 Orange Bowl, NBC Control Room Fire
During coverage of the final quarter, two power feeder cables that were originating coverage into NBC's main production truck accidentally caught itself on fire, forcing all 12 cameras and all NBC stations to knock off the air with an identification slide for 18 seconds. After the video portion returned, NBC was forced to switch to a scrambled Japanese feed of the game off of JOTX, with Japanese audio for 30 seconds before silencing their audio portions with a voiceover, "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are experiencing technical difficulties. Please stand by". A teletext was then shown afterwards, "Sorry for the inconvenience, we have been experiencing transmission difficulties due to atmospheric conditions".


1992 Orange Bowl, NBC Control Room Fire
While the teletext remains on screen, NBC Sports announcers Gayle Gardner and Paul McGuire then returned back on air with an announcement before describing an action between both teams from NBC's studios in New York. 14 minutes later, Dick Enberg apologized to its viewers that a major power failure has knocked out their cameras. At that point, NBC was forced to borrow one camera from Japanese network JOTX for parts of the game.


1992 Orange Bowl, Aftermath
The win completed a perfect season for the Hurricanes, maintaining their #1 ranking in the AP Poll, but they did not receive the top ranking in the Coaches' Poll, which went to Washington of the Pac-10 Conference. The Huskies, second in the AP, had achieved an identical 12–0 record, completed with a 34–14 win over #4 Michigan in the Rose Bowl. For a second consecutive year, major college football finished with two teams splitting the title, which led the major athletic conferences to form the Bowl Coalition in the following year to help better determine a national champion.


1992 Orange Bowl, Aftermath
A fantasy article in Sports Illustrated titled "The Dream Game" had Washington narrowly defeat Miami in a playoff.


1992 Orange Bowl, Aftermath
The shutout was the first for Nebraska in over eighteen years (and remains their only shutout in a bowl); they dropped to fifteenth in the final AP poll. It was the Huskers' fifth consecutive bowl loss, a streak that extended to seven.


1992 Orange Bowl, Aftermath
Nebraska and Miami faced off in another Orange Bowl rematch three years later, and Nebraska finally won. It broke the Huskers' seven-game losing streak in bowls and vaulted them to the first of two consecutive national titles. A four-game winning streak in bowls began, with three national championships (1994, 1995, 1997) in four seasons at the end of head coach Tom Osborne's career in Lincoln.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9
Ballot Measure 9 was a 1992 no-promo-homo ballot measure in the U.S. state of Oregon. Concerning gay rights as well as pedophilia, sadomasochism, and public education, it drew widespread national attention.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9
Measure 9 would have added the following text to the Oregon Constitution:


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9
All governments in Oregon may not use their monies or properties to promote, encourage or facilitate homosexuality, pedophilia, sadism or masochism. All levels of government, including public education systems, must assist in setting a standard for Oregon's youth which recognizes that these behaviors are abnormal, wrong, unnatural and perverse and they are to be discouraged and avoided.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9
It was defeated in the November 3, 1992 general election with 638,527 votes in favor, 828,290 votes against.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9, Political context
The ballot measure was an effort of the Oregon Citizens Alliance (OCA), a conservative group active in Oregon politics in the 1990s. Supporters of the measure felt that their traditional values were under siege in the face of growing acceptance of homosexuality by society. Opponents stated that the measure was unfairly discriminatory, that it was unconstitutional, and that it demonstrated the homophobia and bigotry of its backers. Republican Senator Mark Hatfield opposed the measure, as did most Oregon newspapers. Opponents outspent the OCA six to one.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9, Political context
The OCA would go on to back Measure 13, which would have prevented schools from using materials that were deemed to "legitimize homosexuality", and Measure 19. They also backed another measure numbered 9 ("son of 9") in 2000. All these were unsuccessful.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9, Opposition
On September 10, 1992, the grunge-rock band Nirvana played a benefit concert titled, "No on #9" in opposition to the measure.


1992 Oregon Ballot Measure 9, Lingering effects
Although the measure failed, its legacy can still be seen today. The Oregon Citizens Alliance went on to introduce a series of watered-down ballot measures along the same lines as Measure 9 (most of which failed). Another response of the OCA was to place laws similar to Measure 9 on local ballots in the parts of Oregon where a majority of voters had supported Measure 9. They succeeded in this effort in Josephine, Douglas, Linn, and Klamath counties, as well as in Canby and Junction City. The state legislature eventually overruled these local measures. On the other hand, opposition to Ballot Measure 9 formed the basis of much of the current gay rights movement in Oregon, including the organization Basic Rights Oregon.

1992 Pacific hurricane season
The 1992 Pacific hurricane season is the most active Pacific hurricane season on record, featuring 27 named storms, and the second-costliest Pacific hurricane season in history, behind the 2013 season. The season also produced the second-highest ACE value on record in the basin, only surpassed by the 2018 season. The season officially started on May 15 in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1 in the central Pacific, and lasted until November 30. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. However, these bounds were easily exceeded when Hurricane Ekeka formed on January 28 and again a couple months later with Tropical Storm Hali.


1992 Pacific hurricane season
The most notable storm was Hurricane Iniki, which caused billions of dollars of damage to the Hawaiian Islands, primarily in Kauai, along with six casualties. Hurricanes Lester, Virgil, Winifred, and Orlene also made landfall and killed several people, but were significantly less destructive. Hurricane Darby and Tropical Storm Agatha brought rains and more destruction to Mexico, without making landfall. Hurricane Tina was, in addition to being the strongest storm of the year, the longest-lasting Pacific hurricane at the time.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Season summary
The season officially started on May 15, 1992, in the Eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 1992, in the central Pacific, and lasted until November 30, 1992. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern and north-central Pacific Ocean. However, the season wildly exceeded these bounds, as climatological effects including an El Niño caused Hurricane Ekeka to form on January 26. It is also the only known time that multiple cyclones had formed before the season began.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Season summary
During the season, twenty-seven tropical cyclones formed in the Eastern Pacific (east of longitude 140°W), and twenty-four developed further and became tropical storms. Both of these figures constitute records in the basin, as the 1992 season surpassed the season with the most tropical cyclones (1982, 26) and the season with the most named storms (1985, 22). Of these, fourteen reached hurricane strength and eight became major hurricanes—storms that reach Category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Season summary
This season had five storms reach tropical storm intensity or higher in the month of October, the only time that had happened in this basin. In addition, Hurricanes or Tropical Storms Winifred through Zeke are the earliest twenty-first through twenty-fourth named storms in a season in the eastern north Pacific.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Season summary
The Central Pacific (between 140°W and the International Date Line) saw similarly high levels of activity. Eleven tropical cyclones were tracked by the Central Pacific Hurricane Center throughout the hurricane season. Of those, eight developed in the Eastern Pacific and crossed into the Central Pacific, and three formed within the basin. Two of the storms strengthened to major hurricane status within the Central Pacific's boundaries.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Season summary
One of the crossover storms, Iniki, crossed into the basin as a tropical depression, strengthened to a Category 4 hurricane, and made landfall in Hawaii, becoming the most destructive hurricane in the state's history.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Season summary
ACE is, broadly speaking, a measure of the power of the hurricane multiplied by the length of time it existed, so storms that last a long time, as well as particularly strong hurricanes, have high ACEs. ACE is only calculated for full advisories on tropical systems at or exceeding 34 knots (39 mph, 63 km/h) or tropical storm strength. The figures in parentheses are for storms in the Central Pacific basin west of 140°W; those not in parentheses are for the Eastern Pacific basin. This season had the highest ACE of any season on record at the time, with an overall value of 295.492, until it was surpassed by the 2018 season.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Ekeka
The first storm of the season developed from an area of disturbed weather near Kiritimati in the Line Islands. The tropical disturbance had been tracked since January 23, and at 0600 UTC January 28, the Central Pacific Hurricane Center designated the system as Tropical Depression One-C. This was unusual, since the system was located well to the south of the area of normal tropical cyclone formation, further south than any other Pacific hurricane at the time, and the formation occurred well outside the climatological bounds of the hurricane season. The system intensified and reached tropical storm status 12 hours later, at which point it became known as Ekeka.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Ekeka
The system continued intensifying until reaching hurricane status at 0000 UTC on January 30, and it reached major hurricane status on February 2, reaching maximum sustained winds of 115 mph (185 km/h). However, unfavorable wind shear began taking a toll on the storm, causing it to rapidly weaken. Ekeka crossed the International Date Line as a weakened tropical storm, and shortly thereafter degraded to tropical depression status. Ekeka continued westward, passing through the Marshall Islands and later over Chuuk, before dissipating on February 9 about 310 mi (500 km) off the north coast of Papua New Guinea.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Hali
In late March, meteorological conditions similar to what allowed Ekeka to develop persisted in the central Pacific. An area of convection organized into Tropical Depression Two-C, just north of 5˚N, atypically close to the equator, and far to the southwest of Hawaii. Moving west-northwestward, it slowly intensified, intensifying into a tropical storm on March 29. Upon doing so, the CPHC gave it the name Hali. Later that day, the storm attained peak winds of 50 mph (85 km/h), before increased southwesterly wind shear imparted weakening. Hali was downgraded to a tropical depression on March 30, and it dissipated shortly thereafter. It never affected land. Hali is notable as being the only known Pacific tropical cyclone east of the dateline to develop in the month of March.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Agatha
On May 26, a tropical wave moved off the Central America, which began to show signs of organization on May 29. Early on June 1, the NHC classified it as a tropical depression while located 460 mi (740 km) southwest of Acapulco. Based on a combination of ship data and Dvorak intensity estimates, the system was upgraded into Tropical Storm Agatha on June 2. Agatha steered toward the north while steadily intensifying. Around 1800 UTC June 2, the storm peaked in intensity with winds of 70 mph (110 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 990 mbar (hPa; 29.23 inHg).


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Agatha
Maintaining its peak intensity for 30 hours, Agatha gradually decelerated as it passed within 100 mi (160 km) southwest of the Mexican coast. The center of the storm promptly became less defined on June 3, simultaneously recurving to the west. By 0600 UTC June 5, the storm was downgraded back into tropical depression status prior to dissipating the next day.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Agatha
Agatha approached close enough to the coast of Mexico that watches and warnings were issued. An estimated 1,500 people were evacuated due to the storms' approach. Waves up to 16 ft (4.9 m) were reported along the coast of Mexico and torrential rains triggered flash flooding resulting in ten fatalities.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Blas
A tropical wave crossed Central America from June 14-16. The system entered the Eastern Pacific basin without much convection. The northward portion of the wave developed a circulation in the mid-levels of the atmosphere, and despite moving over waters marginally suitable for cyclogenesis, the tropical wave organized into the fourth depression of the season on June 22 as deep convection developed near the center. At this time, the system was located 460 mi (740 km) south of the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula. Early on June 23, the depression intensified into Tropical Storm Blas.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Blas
Although the storm developed an impressive upper-level outflow and well-organized thunderstorm activity and was moving into an area sea surface temperatures of 78 °F (26 °C), the National Hurricane Center (NHC) forecast only slight intensification. Water vapor imagery also suggested that strong wind shear would introduce a weakening trend, and later that day, Blas weakened accordingly back into a depression, and dissipated at 0:00 UTC June 24.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Celia
Celia formed from tropical wave that crossed over into the East Pacific basin around June 19. Dvorak Classifications were initiated on June 21, and a circulation developed the next day. The system was classified as a tropical depression while located 170 mi (270 km) west of Guatemala based on ship reports. Upon becoming a tropical cyclone the storm formed further east than most Pacific hurricanes due to little wind shear and warm sea surface temperatures near Central America. Due to these conditions, meteorologists at the NHC were anticipating steady intensification.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Celia
Although the storm initially appeared ragged on weather satellite imagery, the storm intensified into Tropical Storm Celia on 18:00 UTC June 23 as banding features improved. By the evening of June 24, Celia had developed a large area of convection near the center, and the NHC re-assessed the intensity at 65 mph (100 km/h). The storm was also forecast to become a moderate Category 2 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Celia
Several hours later, Celia was upgraded into a hurricane based on intensity estimates via Dvorak Technique. Celia's rate of intensification accelerated and thus underwent a period of rapid deepening. Overnight, the storm developed an excellent upper-level outflow and very cold cloud tops. Late on June 25, an eye appeared, and the NHC classified the storm as a strong Category 1 hurricane. By midday June 26, Celia intensified into a Category 2 hurricane A well-defined eye soon developed, and the storm was upgraded into a Category 3 hurricane later that day. Early on June 27, Celia became a Category 4 major hurricane with winds of 145 mph (230 km/h) and a minimal pressure of 935 mbar (27.6 inHg). Celia maintained Category 4 intensity for about 24 hours and then started to gradually weaken.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Celia
Late on June 28, Celia's eye became somewhat ragged, and the storm fluctuated in intensity over the next several days. At 00:00 UTC June 29, Celia weakened to winds of 85 mph (130 km/h). The system briefly re-intensified into a moderate Category 2 hurricane, but later resumed the weakening trend. Celia fell below hurricane status on 00:00 UTC July 2. Turing northwest, the tropical cyclone weakened back to tropical depression status the next day. Thereafter, Celia degenerated into a tight low to mid-level swirl of low-convection clouds that dissipated July 4.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Darby
A tropical wave organized into Tropical Depression Five-E on July 2. It strengthened and was named Darby the next day. Due to very strong steering currents, Darby accelerated as it paralleled the coast of Mexico, and the system strengthened into a hurricane on July 5 while also substantially increasing in size. Darby peaked as a strong Category 3 on July 6, before it began to steadily weaken thereafter as it passed over cooler waters. The hurricane weakened into a tropical storm on July 8 and to a depression the next day. Tropical Depression Darby lost all tropical characteristics on July 10, but moisture from Darby's remnants eventually spread over parts of the continental United States.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Darby
During Darby's formation, flooding from the cyclone's rainbands killed three people in Acapulco, where 180 shops were damaged. Four fishermen were reported missing, fate unknown. Manzanillo, Colima, reported sustained winds just above tropical-storm force. The hurricane's remnants brought mainly light rain to the U.S. state of California. Cloud cover also delayed the landing of the Space Shuttle Columbia for one day. South-facing beaches of that state were pounded with waves up to 7 feet (2.3 m) in height. A monetary value for damage is not available. Darby also caused a few shipping accidents.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Darby
A pleasure craft, the Oasis, had an engine failure and was abandoned. The seven people aboard were rescued, but the boat was sunk. A smaller sailboat, the Hosanna, had difficulties but was towed to a safe location by a cutter from the United States Coast Guard. A fishing boat at an unspecified location also experienced difficulties.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Estelle
The origins of Hurricane Estelle were from a tropical wave that began on June 23 off the African coast. After passing over northern South America, a large area of disturbed weather formed about 460 mi (740 km) west of Acapulco on July 9 and was classified as a tropical depression two days later. Eighteen hours later, the depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Estelle as banding features increased. Gradually intensifying, the storm's outflow improved, and a burst of deep convection occurred over the center. Early on July 10, an eye developed, and based on this, Estelle was upgraded into a hurricane. Around that time, Estelle turned to the northwest.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Estelle
Although the eye briefly disappeared from satellite imagery later that day, a small and distinct eye quickly re-formed within very deep convection, and Estelle was respectively upgraded into a Category 2 hurricane. Later on July 11, the NHC reported that Estelle had intensified into a major hurricane. A few hours later, Estelle was upgraded into a Category 4 system as the storm continued to rapidly deepen. Moving northwestward due to interaction with a trough, Estelle began a weakening trend. By the afternoon, Estelle was downgraded into a Category 3 system.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Estelle
At 0000 UTC, winds fell below major hurricane force, only to re-intensify back to a major hurricane hours later. Hurricane Estelle quickly re-developed a well-defined eye and an impressive upper-level outflow and Estelle attained its peak intensity of 140 mph (230 km/h). However, the next day the thunderstorms around the eye began to warm. The storm gradually weakened over the next few days as it encountered cooler waters. By early on July 14, Hurricane Estelle was re-classified as a Category 3 hurricane, and shortly afterwards, winds fell below major hurricane strength several hundred miles west of the Baja California Peninsula. Turning west under shallow low-level steering currents, Estelle weakened into a tropical storm on July 15. It weakened into a tropical storm the next day. On 0800 UTC July 17, Tropical Depression Estelle had dissipated over 1,000 mi (1,610 km) west of Baja California Sur.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Frank
The origins of Hurricane Frank were from a tropical wave that exited the coast of Africa on July 1. After reaching the Pacific, it developed an area of disturbed weather on July 9 off the southern Mexican coast. Continuing westward, the system developed into Tropical Depression Seven-E on July 13 about 660 mi (1070 km) south-southeast of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. The depression intensified with favorable water temperatures and well-defined outflow. Based on estimates from satellite imagery, the depression intensified into Tropical Storm Frank on July 14.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Frank
For about a day, the storm tracked generally northwestward before turning to the west due to a building ridge north of the system. An eye developed within the Central Dense Overcast, a large mass of deep convection, late on July 14. Additional intensification was expected, and Frank was predicted to become a major hurricane within 48 hours. The next day, Frank attained hurricane status.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Frank
Late on July 15, Hurricane Frank passed about 175 mi (280 km) south of Socorro Island. A station on the island reported winds of 67 mph (107 km/h), which indicated that the hurricane had a large wind field. Slow intensification continued, and Frank intensified into a major hurricane, or a Category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, on July 17. By that time, the eye had become well-defined, and later became surrounded by a ring of deep convection. On July 18, Frank reached its peak intensity of 145 mph (230 km/h) well to the west-southwest of the Baja California peninsula. By July 20, winds dropped below major hurricane intensity, and by the evening, Frank was just a Category 1 hurricane.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Frank
Afterward, the hurricane turned northwestward over progressively cooler water temperatures, resulting in weakening. On July 21 Frank was downgraded to a tropical storm, after wind shear caused further weakening. The next day, it crossed into the Central Pacific Hurricane Center's area of responsibility, with winds at the time of crossing over were estimated at 50 mph (85 km/h). Rapidly declining in strength, it weakened to a tropical depression on July 23. Later that day Frank dissipated about 800 mi (650 km) northeast of Hawaii.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Georgette
A tropical wave left Africa in early July and crossed the Atlantic without development. It crossed into the eastern Pacific on July 13, and organized into Tropical Depression Eight-E on July 14. The system was located over warm waters, and moving west-northwest, the depression paralleled the coast of Mexico and strengthened into Tropical Storm Georgette on July 15. About 18 hours later, Georgette became a minimal hurricane after deep convection developed over the center. During its formative stages, Georgette brought higher than average humidity to California. The hurricane turned westward due to a ridge to the north, but a west-northwest track later resumed. On July 18, Georgette reached a peak of 110 mph (175 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 964 mbar (28.5 inHg), although the NHC operationally estimated peak winds of 115 mph (185 km/h).


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Georgette
Shortly after its peak, the eye became less defined, only intermittently seen on satellite imagery. After wind shear increased, Georgette weakened for about two days, and on July 20 a ridge forced the hurricane southwestward. Similar to hurricanes Celia and Estelle earlier this season, Georgette re-intensified once it turned back toward the west and it regained its peak intensity as a Category 2 hurricane on July 21. Although meteorologists predicted the storm to intensify into a major hurricane, this did not occur. Strong upper-level winds weakened Georgette back to a tropical storm early on July 23.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Georgette
About 30 hours later, it weakened to a tropical depression, devoid of deep convection, and shortly thereafter entered the Central Pacific Hurricane Center's area of responsibility. Moving quickly westward, Georgette had difficulty maintaining a closed atmospheric circulation, and it dissipated late on July 26. Around that time, the system was south of Hawaii, and it brought locally gusty winds as high as 60 mph (95 km/h) to the northern part of the Big Island. Several large waterspouts were sighted early on July 26 off of a beach in the south Kohala district. Georgette's remnants later produced squally weather at Johnston Atoll. The remnants moved across the International Dateline into the western Pacific on July 29, and was still a weak tropical disturbance when it moved past Wake Island at the end of the month.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Howard
On July 26 a tropical depression formed and became a weak tropical storm the next day. It steadily organized, ad reached it peak intensity as a strong tropical storm. It then began to weaken, despite being located over warm waters. Howard dissipated several days later without affecting land.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Isis
Isis formed on July 28 as a depression and became a tropical storm the next day. Isis peaked as a strong tropical storm with 65 mph (105 km/h) winds on July 30. Due to cooler water, it weakened to a depression on the first and dissipated the next day. Isis degenerated to a broad area of low pressure on August 2.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Javier
Hurricane Javier probably originated from a tropical wave that left Africa on July 17. While it showed some signs of organization off the west coast of Africa, most of the convection dissipated by time it was near the Lesser Antilles. Around the time it entered the Pacific on July 27, thunderstorm activity increased and became more concentrated. By July 30, the cloud pattern began to organize, though it was initially elongated. Moving westward, the system was declared a tropical depression on 1800 UTC July 30.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Javier
Initially, the depression developed slowly and there was even uncertainty on whether it had an atmospheric circulation or not. It was not until 1200 UTC August 2 when the system was finally upgraded into a tropical storm. Around this time, Javier turned west-northwest, a direction it would maintain for days when a ridge north of the cyclone caused it turn to the west, and later, west-southwest. Shortly after turning west, Javier intensified into a hurricane.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Javier
By 0000 UTC August 6, Hurricane Javier had attained peak wind speeds of 80 mph (130 km/h). After hanging on to hurricane strength for a day, Javier rapidly lost deep convection and become much less organized. By August 7, winds were only 50 mph (80 km/h). However, the weakening rate slowed somewhat once Javier before it moved CPhC's AOR on August 8. Tropical Storm Javier continued to diminish in strength while moving west-southwest. On August 9, the CHPC reported that Javier had weakened into a tropical depression. By 0000 UTC August 12, Javier had dissipated south of Hawaii. As a dissipating tropical depression, some rainfall and showers were recorded along the Hawaiian islands.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Depression Twelve-E
Twelve-E had a peak windspeed of 35 mph (55 km/h), and a pressure of 1,006 mbar (29.7 inHg). It formed on August 10, and dissipated on August 13.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Kay
A depression formed on August 18. It became a tropical storm shortly after forming and was named Kay. Kay was a short lived system. Its peak intensity was only 50 mph (80 km/h). However, Kay was a very small tropical storm. It dissipated on August 22. Kay never impacted land.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Lester
Tropical Depression Fourteen-E formed on August 20 from a tropical wave that began to show signs of organized on August 19. At the time of the upgrade, it was located about 275 miles (445 km) south-southwest of Manzanillo. The depression slowly strengthened and steadily organized attained tropical storm status late on August 20. The next day, Lester turned to the north. Lester intensified into a hurricane late on August 22 while located about 240 miles (385 km) west of La Paz.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Lester
The hurricane continued to organize and Lester attained peak winds of 85 mph (140 km/h) on August 23 before making landfall as a minimal hurricane near Punta Abreojos, Baja California Sur. After passing through the northern Gulf of California, it made a second landfall in the state of Sonora as a tropical storm. Lester entered Arizona as a tropical storm on August 24, the first time since 1967 that a Pacific hurricane entered the United States as a tropical storm. The low-level circulation subsequently dissipated over New Mexico, though the remnants transitioned into an extratropical cyclone, and subsequently merged with the remnants of Hurricane Andrew and another frontal system on August 29.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Lester
Hurricane Lester produced heavy rainfall across its path with a peak rainfall occurring in Mulege. Extensive flood damage was reported west of Hermosillo. A large highway was damaged and many communities were destroyed. Flash flooding from Lester caused 10,000 people to be evacuated from their homes. In addition, mudslides killed three people, and left 5,000 homeless. The remnants of Lester produced heavy rainfall across the Southwestern United States causing flash flooding of arroyos and  moderate flooding in Denver. Snowfall from the storm generated traffic problems in mountainous areas. The remnants of Lester extended through the eastern United States, resulting in rainfall records in Minnesota, Nebraska, Colorado, and North Dakota. In all, Hurricane Lester resulted in $3 million (1992 USD) in damage.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Madeline
Far in the open ocean, a tropical wave organized into Tropical Depression Fifteen-E on August 27. Banding and convection increased, and the depression became a tropical storm the next day. Development continued, and Madeline peaked with a minimum pressure of 999 mbar (29.5 inHg), and winds of 50 mph (85 km/h), on August 29. As the system progressed westward, it entered a region of strong wind shear and had dissipated on August 31. The system never came near land.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Tropical Storm Newton
Newton was a fairly short-lived storm. It formed from a tropical wave on August 27. It became a tropical storm, was named Newton 18 hours later, and dissipated four days later on August 31. Newton never impacted any land.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Orlene
Tropical Depression Seventeen-E formed September 2, rapidly intensifying to a tropical storm the next day, then a Category 1 hurricane late that day. Orlene peaked at Category 4 major hurricane status on September 6. The system held intensity for a day or so, with gradual weakening due to shear over the area, but the shear relaxed over the cyclone early on September 9, which brought about a quick restrengthening phase on September 9, although it stopped, and the weakening trend resumed later that day.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Orlene
Orlene weakened back to a tropical storm on September 10, and finally a depression on September 12, around the same time that it moved into the Central Pacific. It dissipated two days later, on September 14, after making landfall as a tropical depression on the Big Island of Hawaii. The remnants caused downpours and washed out roads, and the damage was minimal, though some areas got up to 4 in (100 mm) of rain.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Iniki
Forming on September 5 about 1,700 miles (2,700 km) southwest of Cabo San Lucas, the depression continued quickly westward and remained weak until September 8, when it strengthened into a tropical storm. Having been designated in the Central Pacific, the storm was given the name Iniki. Iniki continued westward and strengthened over the unusually favorable central Pacific; it reached hurricane status on September 9 while 470 miles (760 km) south-southeast of Hilo. The subtropical ridge, which typically keeps hurricanes well away from the Hawaiian Islands, weakened due to an approaching upper level-trough and allowed Iniki to turn to the northwest.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Iniki
With very favorable upper-level outflow and warm water temperatures, Iniki steadily intensified, and attained major hurricane status on September 10 while south-southwest of the island chain. As Iniki turned to the north, it continued to strengthen, reaching a peak of 145 mph (235 km/h) winds on September 11 while 170 miles (270 km) south-southwest of Kauaʻi. It continued rapidly to the north-northeast, and made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Iniki
After crossing the island, Iniki weakened rapidly, and became extratropical on September 13 about halfway between Alaska and Hawaiʻi. The Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC) failed to issue tropical cyclone warnings and watches for the hurricane well in advance as the CPHC forecast Iniki to remain well south of the island chain until September 10, less than 24 hours before landfall that any warning was given to the public. Iniki's large wind field caused nearly 30,000 people to evacuate to 110 public shelters in Oʻahu.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Iniki
Hurricane Iniki's high winds caused extensive damage in Kauaʻi. 1,421 houses were completely destroyed, and 63 were lost from the storm surge and wave action. A total of 5,152 homes were severely damaged, while 7,178 received minor damage. Iniki's high winds also downed 26.5% of the island's transmission poles, 37% of its distribution poles, and 35% of its 800-mile (1300 km) distribution wire system. Some areas were without power for up to three months after the storm. More than 7,000 people were homeless after the storm's passage. One person died when struck by debris, while another lost her life when a portion of her house fell on her. Offshore, two humans died when their boat capsized. More than 100 injuries can be attributed to Iniki.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Iniki
Upon passing by Oʻahu, Iniki produced tides of 1.7–3 feet (0.5–0.9 m) above normal. Prolonged periods of high waves severely eroded and damaged the southwestern coast of Oʻahu. In all, Hurricane Iniki caused several million dollars in property damage, and two deaths on Oʻahu. Overall, Iniki was the costliest hurricane to strike the state of Hawaiʻi, causing $3.1 billion in damage. In all, Iniki also was responsible for 6 deaths. During the aftermath of the storm, communities held parties to necessarily consume perishable food from unpowered refrigerators and freezers.

Kauaʻi citizens remained hopeful for monetary aid from the government or insurance companies, though after six months they felt annoyed with the lack of help. though military effectively provided aid for their immediate needs. Amateur radio proved to be helpful during the three weeks after the storm, with volunteers coming from around the Pacific to assist in the recovery. Local operators assisted with the American Red Cross to provide disaster relief centers across Kauai. Many insurance companies left Hawaiʻi after the storm, forcing Hawaii to launch a Hurricane Relief Fund in 1993 to help unprotected Hawaiʻi residents, but it was stopped in 2000.


1992 Pacific hurricane season, Systems, Hurricane Paine
The tropical wave from which Paine originated moved off the coast of Africa on August 25, reaching the Caribbean on September 2, and eventually crossed Central America and the Yucatán Peninsula. The wave finally reached the Pacific on September 8, developing a mid-level circulation a short distance south of Manzanillo. The circulation finally organized enough to be classified as Tropical Depression Nineteen-E early on September 11, a couple hundred miles southwest of Baja California. The depression continued just south of due west for the next couple of days, under the influence of a deep-layer-mean anticyclone.

The depression soon intensified into Tropical Storm Paine around 1800 UTC on the September 11. Gradually intensifying, the storm approached hurricane intensity early on September 13. Upon the formation of an eye, Paine attained hurricane status. Meanwhile, the storm reached its peak intensity of 75 mph (120 km/h), a mid-level Category 1 hurricane.

Paine then slowed to a forward speed of only 2–4 mph (3.2–6.4 km/h), while executing a slow, erratic clockwise loop for the next three days. The loop was initially caused by an approaching trough, but was later caused by Paine's proximity to the approaching Hurricane Roslyn from the east. By 1800 UTC September 14, Paine weakened back to a tropical storm. By September 16, Paine had dissipated. The remnants of Hurricane Paine were later absorbed into Roslyn's larger circulation.

On September 13, a tropical wave developed into Tropical Depression Twenty-E, about 416 mi (669 km) south of Baja California. Despite initial disorganization, the system developed an eye-like feature the next day and was named Tropical Storm Roslyn, the storm also began to develop banding features, concurrent with the better establishment of upper-level outflow. Roslyn quickly intensified to just below hurricane status on the September 15, but began a short weakening trend, as it passed through the wake of Hurricane Paine, where it had begun intensifying on the 11th.

By 1800 UTC that day, Roslyn began interacting with the weakening and nearby Paine, with centers of both systems being only a few hundred miles apart, and with this interaction, Paine was absorbed into Roslyn the next day, although this merger didn't affect Roslyn's intensity in the least. On the September 18, Roslyn had a brief period of strengthening. By September 21, deep convection began to rapidly increase, followed by a visible eye on satellite imagery the next day, which indicated that Roslyn had reached hurricane intensity.

The hurricane peaked at moderate Category 2 status later on the September 22, with a quick decrease in strength thereafter. Roslyn was downgraded to a tropical storm just as it crossed into the Central Pacific two days later, and over the next several days, a trough to the west turned the weakening Roslyn to the northeast, and then to the north. The system finally dissipated on September 30, over two weeks after it formed.

On September 17, a tropical wave was upgraded into a tropical depression. The next day, the depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Seymour a couple hundred miles south of the southern tip of Baja California, and while continuing on a west-northwest and northwest track, Seymour reached hurricane strength on September 19. However, the system soon weakened to a tropical storm, due to the effects of a trough producing moderate shear, and cooler waters. This was short-lived.
