Meanwhile, Hurricane Tammy is threatening the islands of the Lesser Antilles in the Atlantic, with hurricane warnings issued for several islands. Residents are bracing for heavy rainfall and potential flooding, particularly in Antigua and Barbuda, which are still recovering from previous storms.

Tropical Storm Bret and Invest 93L cause concern in the Atlantic.

Tropical Storm Bret is moving towards the Lesser Antilles, while Tropical Depression Four has formed in the Central Atlantic. Bret is expected to weaken in the eastern Caribbean Sea and bring strong wind gusts, heavy rain, and dangerous waves to the Lesser Antilles. Meanwhile, Tropical Depression Four is no immediate threat to land and is expected to turn towards the northwest over the next few days. The development of these storms is attributed to record ocean warmth in the main development region of the Atlantic Ocean.

Tropical Storm Bret Threatens Lesser Antilles and Gulf Coast with Flooding.

Tropical Storm Bret is a threat to the Lesser Antilles in the coming days, while another disturbance called Invest 93L is being watched for development. This is unusual for June, as most June storms develop in the Gulf of Mexico or off the East Coast. Ocean warmth is providing fuel for these storms, with water temperatures in the proximity of the systems 2 to 5 degrees above average. Bret is expected to strengthen as it tracks west-northwest, but should weaken as it enters the eastern Caribbean. Invest 93L is likely to become a tropical depression or storm as it continues moving westward, but is no immediate threat to land.
