June 9, 2025 Monday Evening Edition
More rain into weekend across Eastern U.S. with unsettled pattern
Monday Evening Weather Headlines
Hurricane Barbara upgraded but won’t last very long as it reaches much cooler water, dry air, and wind shear. Tropical Storm Cosme to the WSW is in better shape and should become a Hurricane as well, minimal, Category 1, before decaying.
We’re stuck in an unsettled and wet pattern for the foreseeable future across the Plains and Eastern U.S. into mid-June.
Eastern Pacific Hurricane Basin
Another area of disturbed weather will likely form into a tropical depression by this weekend and become the 4th named storm of the EPAC season. The Atlantic has been quiet — and should remain so for the next 10-14 days.
Precipitable Water Next 5-days
The next system is Dalila and I’d expect it to fare better than Barbara and Cosme with a higher intensity ceiling over the warm waters south of Mexico.
Atlantic Basin | 15-days Ensemble Tracks
12z updated ECMWF EPS ensembles are blank for the Atlantic basin through June 24.
