List of storms named Ismael
The name Ismael was used for three tropical cyclones in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean:
- Hurricane Ismael (1983), traveled generally northward
- Hurricane Ismael (1989), brought heavy rain to Acapulco
- Hurricane Ismael (1995), caused over 100 fatalities in Mexico
The name Ismael was retired in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean after the 1995 season and was replaced with Israel. During the 2001 season, a reporter stationed in Israel felt offense from the name choice, and the president of the Anti-Defamation League felt it was insensitive. As such the name Israel was replaced with Ivo.
