Tropical Storm Gilma was, in terms of winds, tied for the weakest named storm of the 2006 Pacific hurricane season. The eighth tropical cyclone and seventh named storm of the season, Gilma developed from a tropical wave that emerged off the west coast of Africa on July 17, 2006. The wave tracked westward across the Atlantic, and crossed into the Eastern Pacific on July 25; after a few days it began to organize. It was designated a tropical depression on August 1, and tracked west-northwestward, attaining peak winds of 40 mph (65 km/h). A disorganized cyclone, persistent wind shear prevented further strengthening, and contributed to the storm's weakening and dissipation just a few days later. The remnant low entirely degenerated on August 5, without ever having affected land.
