TROPICS: DUSTY AND DRY

The Atlantic remains very quiet, with hardly any tropical activity. Wind shear and a significant plume of dust should keep it that way through mid-August. August is a month in which tropical activity usually picks up, however, this season is expected to be below-average.

Saharan dust continues to move across the Atlantic
