NOAA/NCEI Climate at a Glance, contiguous United States. This is the observed record for the month, not a score of anything said in this piece — the forecast ledger begins 2026-08-17 and cannot reach earlier posts.

The Atlantic tropics remain quiet for the next 7-days, at least, getting us into the second half of August with no named storms.

The signal from the ensembles has weakened, with only a smattering of serious developments from tropical waves. This map is from Day 10.
