Original Note:
Hurricanes form over the ocean over warm water and, needing that warm water to survive, don’t tend to make it up further into the continental US. The reason they hit on the Atlantic Gulf more often is because the water is warmer than the pacific. https://oceanexplorer.noaa.gov/facts/hurricanes.html https://compuweather.com/do-hurricanes-ever-hit-the-west-coast-of-the-u-s/
