About Tropical Storm Kiko (2007) in brief
Tropical Storm Kiko was a strong tropical storm that capsized a boat off the western coast of Mexico, killing at least 15 people. It was the 15th and final tropical cyclone of the 2007 Pacific hurricane season. Kiko developed out of a tropical wave that formed off the coast of Africa on September 26 and traversed the Atlantic. The wave crossed over Central America and entered the Pacific Ocean on October 8, where it spawned Tropical Depression 15-E. It subsequently weakened into a tropical depression, but later reattained tropical storm intensity. The tropical storm slowly weakened to a remnant low-pressure area by October 24 and completely dissipated on October 27 without making landfall.
The National Hurricane Center issued its final advisory that night before Kiko dissipated over open waters over the open waters of Guerrero and Zihuatanejo coastal states. The storm reached its peak intensity of 70 mph 991 mbar late on October 20 while located around 175 mi west-southwest of Manzanillo, Mexico. It lost almost all convection and degenerated to a remaining low-pressure area on October 23.
