🌧️ Rainfall will soon return to the forecast. Rain chances will begin increasing tomorrow, with additional opportunities for showers and thunderstorms heading into early next week.

🌀 The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a new disturbance well south of the Azores. Development chances currently stand at 20% over both the next 2 and 7 days. Significant development is not expected as the system should eventually encounter a less favorable environment.

The remarkably quiet stretch in the Atlantic continues. Despite being well into the climatological peak of hurricane season, the record-breaking 2026 Atlantic hurricane season remains without a hurricane, and no hurricane development is currently expected over at least the next seven days.
