I'd keep an eye on the Atlantic's Main Development Region in the coming 10 days for the first MDR spawned Atlantic tropical cyclone. Yes, I feel this way even after seeing that colossal Saharan Air Layer (SAL) outbreak that dimmed the sky for the Antilles + PR.

Reasons to follow 1. Strong convectively coupled Kelvin wave will be passing by. The SAL outbreak took place as the suppressed phase of this Kelvin wave passed by. Now we are tracking the active phase over the eastern Pacific and this will pass the Atlantic's MDR late June and early July

I get Climate Change is a very important topic in Politics. But there's a natural ocean cycle (top 3 strongest Indian Ocean Dipole event) that played a role in drought in Australia over the past 6 months. By leaving out the natural process, CC is being used as a political crutch.

I strongly believe in Climate Change and I believe we need to work together to figure out a solution. But Mr. Sanders tweet is falling into the alarmist category as the natural underlying process that is likely more important here than CC is being ignored.
