Miami. The tropics are quiet, and that's genuinely good news right now.
And it gets a little better. NOAA dropped their official season forecast, and it's leaning toward below-normal activity this year.
There is a tropical wave sitting out near sixty-five degrees west in the Caribbean right now. Early-season waves like this one pop up regularly.
Here's where today's actual hazard lives, and it's not on any storm tracker. The National Weather Service has issued a rip current statement for Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties through Friday evening.
Keep an eye on that Caribbean wave as it tracks west, and watch for any NHC updates as we close in on June first. El Niño's actual intensity this season will tell us a lot about how reliable this forecast turns out to be.
