Is there a chart that shows the path and date of baja hurricanes?
Has there ever been a november hurricane in baja?

What about trip planning around hurricane history, what is the story?

I recall reading about how a hurricane messed up a Baja race in 1967... since the Baja 1000 (Mexican 1000 then) is run in early November, I checked.

The hurricane that caused problems and prevented anyone from finishing was in September 1967 and it was a 'test run' to La Paz of several racers. The first Mexican 1000 ran on Oct. 31 and into November 1967.

Seems all true hurricanes have October as their latest month from the history list I looked at?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Baja_California_Penins...
From that link:

"Most tropical cyclone impacts occurred in the month of September. This coincides with the statistical peak in the eastern north Pacific hurricane season, which occurs in early September or late August. Although hurricane season in the eastern north Pacific officially runs from May 15 to November 30, no known tropical cyclones have impacted the peninsula in May, November, or outside the season."

And not only in Baja. New Orleans is the best Example. Who has ever seen hurricanes in the past going up north as far as New York? Greetings from global warming! Talking about travelling. Just look at eebmike before planning any travelling. You gotto do that even travelling inside the U.S. (Don`t travel to the heartland not knowing anything about possible twisters. Don`t travel to the Carolinas not looking at what comes up the Atlantic Ocean. Make no plans about a vacation trip into the Caribbean not looking at the East Coast of Africa where everything starts)
The Baja is safe if you know your task of planning a trip.

I was in a Connecticut hurricane as a small child in the late 60s
