A vigorous tropical wave over the central Atlantic acquired a sufficiently well-defined circulation Monday morning to be classified as Tropical Depression Three. It should be noted that it is quite unusual to see tropical development in this part of the basin this early in the season, with only two systems of at least tropical storm strength recorded in the tropical Atlantic east of the Lesser Antilles in the satellite era during June: Ana (1979) and Bret (2017). Coincidentally, if Three…

Beryl falls apart, Tropical Depression Three expected to remain offshore and strengthen

For the first time since 2011, the Atlantic basin has two tropical cyclones active at once in the month of July. Tiny Beryl, which was a hurricane yesterday, has quickly weakened today, and is now a poorly organized tropical storm with little deep convection remaining. This is good news for the Lesser Antilles, as Beryl is likely to remain weak when it passes the island instead of the potential hurricane predicted yesterday.
