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. Saharan dust is still covering a big part of the Atlantic limiting tropical activity and the Gulf & Caribbean remain quiet. We are still expecting an above average hurricane season so don't let your guard down. Eastern Pacific remains busy with Tropical Storm Cosme & as of today Hurricane Barbara that formed. Neither system is expected to make landfall across Mexico. But Barbara could dump 2 to 4 inches of rain and bring big waves to parts of SW Mexico.
