A day later, it intensified into Tropical Storm John. The system tracked over warm water as it became sandwiched between Hurricane Kristy to the east and Tropical Storm Lane to the west. John attained hurricane strength over the far western reaches of the East Pacific basin around 12:00 UTC on August 22, but it weakened to a tropical storm as it crossed into the Central Pacific. Over subsequent days, the cyclone reorganized, reaching its peak as a Category 2 hurricane with winds of early on August 25. It tracked south of Hawaii while steadily weakening and ultimately dissipated after 06:00 UTC on August 30. Hurricane Kristy The remnants of the Atlantic's Hurricane Cora crossed into the eastern Pacific in mid-August, becoming the easternmost of successive disturbances across the East Pacific basin. It coalesced into a tropical depression by 18:00 UTC on August 18 and further into Tropical Storm Kristy within six hours. The system acquired an eye on satellite on August 19, and it was upgraded to a hurricane around 18:00 UTC that day. Kristy moved northwest and then west-northwest, further organizing into a Category 2 hurricane with winds of on August 21. Thereafter, the system encountered cooler waters and drier air, which caused it to fall to tropical storm intensity. Environmental conditions improved again by August 25 as Kristy regained hurricane strength, but it soon encountered cooler waters again that prompted a more concrete weakening trend. The cyclone stair-stepped into the Central Pacific prior to dissipating after 00:00 UTC on August 28. Tropical Storm Lane The westernmost of successive disturbances over the East Pacific, joined by a tropical wave, was identified on August 15. It developed into a tropical depression around 00:00 UTC on August 19 and intensified into Tropical Storm Lane eighteen hours later. The storm moved generally westward and crossed into the Central Pacific as it attained peak winds of . Beyond that time, Lane tracked over colder waters and begin to weaken, eventually dissipating south of Hawaii after 00:00 UTC on August 24. Hurricane Miriam A small disturbance coincident with a tropical wave was first identified south of Acapulco on August 19. The system moved west and coalesced into a tropical depression around 18:00 UTC on August 23. The depression failed to intensify over subsequent days, and in fact, it was operationally downgraded back to a disturbance on August 26. In the official database, the cyclone
