Tropical Weather Forecast - Atlantic remains quiet, Pacific continuing to see development
It has been a quiet start to the Atlantic hurricane season as of the middle of June. This will likely be the trend through the next week with Saharan dust still dominating and hostile winds making it difficult for tropical waves to get organized. The Eastern Pacific has already had 4 named storms with the fifth likely coming soon. Invest 94-E near Central America has a very high chance to become a tropical depression or Tropical Storm Erick over the next few days.

Tropical Weather Forecast - Saharan Dust continues in Atlantic
Things continue to remain quiet across the Atlantic basin for the month of June. However, in the Eastern Pacific, multiple systems are being monitored, including Tropical Storm Barbara and Topical Storm Cosme. Barbara will remain offshore but will still bring the threat for high surf and rip currents along the West-Central Mexican coast. Both systems are rapidly weakening & will fall apart the next few days as they move north into cooler waters.

For the ninth day of the 2025 hurricane season, the Atlantic basin remains very quiet.
