Hurricane Marco-Polo was a strong and unusual hurricane that caused major damage to Belize in the 2026 Atlantic and Pacific hurricane seasons. It was a rare storm to cross from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Marco peaked as a category 2 in the Atlantic and Polo peaked as a category 4 in the Pacific. Marco's remnants regenerated in the Pacific and were named "Polo". This was an extremely odd coincidence in that "Marco Polo" also happens to be the name of a famous Italian merchant.
