Eastern Pacific Hurricane Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eastern Pacific Hurricane Center was formerly the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center responsible for forecasting Pacific hurricanes in the eastern north Pacific east of 140°W. It was part of the Weather Bureau Forecast Office San Francisco and was based in Redwood City.
The EPHC succeeded the previous forecaster, United States Navy Fleet Weather Central in Alameda starting in 1970. It held that role until 1987, when it was folded into the National Hurricane Center, which took responsibility for the basin starting in the 1988 season.
