The first storm of the season, Hurricane Adrian formed off the southwest coast of Mexico. Thirteen tropical cyclones developed during the season. Most of these attained tropical storm status, and seven attained hurricane status. However this streak ended when Tropical Storm Fernanda formed and dissipated, never having reached hurricane strength.
