Tracking The Tropics:

We are watching a cluster of storms north of French Guiana that is drifting to the west. As it moves towards Honduras it has a 20% chance for development as it enters the Bay of Campeche. This could bring heavy rainfall to Eastern Mexico by Monday July 1st.

As for the rest of the Atlantic Basin, we are seeing typical showers and Saharan dust from Africa. The dust helps to minimize tropical development.

Pulse of Saharan Dust move into the Atlantic Basin this week.
10-Day Forecast:

Our 10-day forecast is as typical a summer time outlook as you will see. High temperatures are in the mid-90s, it’s humid and we have a chance of getting an afternoon sea breeze thunderstorm every day.
