There’s currently nothing brewing in the tropics, and it looks like we could see this trend continue for a while.
![CHI 200 hPa 40-Day Forecast (7/12/2020 - 8/21/2020)](https://www.thig.com/assets/uploads/ewp.00z12jul2020-21aug2020.gif)
The MJO continues to forecast a drying trend through July, and with that, a slowdown in tropical activity.
Some models show moisture being pulled into the Gulf in the next 7 – 10 days, but nothing is developing on these forecasts.
Lots can change, but for now, we should be in the clear for a while.
We’ll see if this continues.
