Unusual June Weather: Multiple Tropical Disturbances and Storms in the Atlantic.

Three tropical disturbances are moving towards the west in the Atlantic, with the closest one, Bret, passing near Barbados and between Martinique and Saint Lucia. Tropical storm force winds and up to 10 inches of rain are forecast, with the risk of flash flooding. The second disturbance, Tropical Storm Cindy, is likely to miss the islands entirely. The third disturbance is a vigorous tropical wave rolling off the west coast of Africa. The 2023 hurricane season is six weeks ahead of schedule due to the warm sea surface caused by global heating. The El Niño phase is expected to limit hurricane formation and strength.
