A strong tropical wave axis currently centered over the Ivory Coast and Mali will emerge from the African coast sometime tomorrow and may develop into a tropical cyclone before a robust tropical upper tropospheric trough, spurred in part by the recurvature of the remnants of tropical cyclone Cindy further upstream, will induce increasing upper level westerly wind shear that's liable to rip any storm that develops apart. This is incredible given that there's a suppressed CCKW passing over this portion of the basin atm and it's still June... Although Bret by itself probably served as a harbinger of an active season ahead, development of yet another TC in this portion of the basin so early in the hurricane season likely says this season seriously means business. We've never seen two tropical cyclones form east of the Antilles before July...
Keep in mind, we usually only see a TC in June once every other season, having 3 in the month would be extremely unusual...
