Mexico was struck by four tropical cyclones in 2006, none on the Atlantic coast and all along the Pacific coast.[1] Tropical Storm Aletta, which brought minor damage.[2][3] The next tropical depression of the season remained offshore, though 72 people were forced to leave their homes.[4] In July, Hurricane Carlotta and Tropical Storm Emilia brushed the coastline with moderate rainfall, the latter brought minor flooding in Baja California Sur.[5][6] Heavy surf from Hurricane Ileana killed a man near Cabo San Lucas.[7] The first tropical cyclone to make landfall was Hurricane John, doing side on the eastern side the Baja California peninsula on September 1.[8] Five people were killed, and damage in Mexico amounted to $663 million (2006 MXN, $60.8 million 2006 USD).[8][9] Hurricane Lane moved ashore in the state of Sinaloa, causing flooding and mudslides which resulted in four fatalities.[10] Monetary damage amounted to about $2.2 billion (2006 MXN, $203 million 2006 USD) in damage in the country.[11] In early October, the remains of Tropical Storm Norman destroyed 20 houses.[12] A few weeks later Hurricane Paul caused four deaths[13][14]while monetary damage totaled more than $35 million (2006 MXN, $3.2 million 2006 USD).[15] The last storm of the season, Hurricane Sergio, produced light rainfall along the coast while remaining well offshore.[16]

Moisture from Tropical Storm Emilia moved into Arizona[17] and California.[18] The remnants of Hurricane John produced moisture across much of the southwestern United States.[19] Furthermore, the remnants of Hurricane Lane also produced rainfall in Texas.[20] In the U.S. state of Hawaii, moisture from Hurricane Bud produced light rainfall.[21] Shortly thereafter, the remnants of Hurricane Daniel produced up to 5 in (125 mm) of rainfall in the state.[22] The remnants of Tropical Storm Fabio caused river and roadway flooding.[23] During September, moisture from Tropical Depression Four-C in October contributed to heavy rainfall on the island of Hawaii.[22]
