Why Atlantic hurricane season is off to slow start while Eastern Pacific buzzes with tropical activity
The Eastern Pacific hurricane season has gotten off to a fast start, with three named storms already forming since the beginning of the season on May 15. Meanwhile, since the start of the Atlantic hurricane season on June 1, the basin has remained void of any tropical activity. "This is the overall pattern you would expect for the month of June, where you watch (tropical) waves, but nothing is going to come to fruition," FOX Weather Meteorologist Stephen Morgan said. On average, the Eastern Pacific Basin sees its first named storm on June 10, its second by June 24 and its third by July 6. Alvin, Barbara and Cosme all formed in less than two weeks, marking a fast start for the ocean basin. Saharan dust usually does not reach far enough east to affect the Eastern Pacific; the dust is lifted north toward the U.s. before it can interfere with Eastern Pacific storms. According to the FOX Forecast Center, the lack of storms in the Atlantic so far has been caused by three unfavorable atmospheric conditions over the basin, including the current water temperatures, wind shear and Saharan dust. The Saharan dust, which is known for suppressing tropical activity in the basin, limits the ability of tropical showers to develop and grow. Meanwhile, persistent wind shear prevents tropical disturbances and waves from organizing. Barbara Weakening In Eastern Pacific After Becoming First Hurricane Of 2025 Season "Hurricanes, tropical cyclones, do not thrive in an environment that is a high-shear one. Any sort of development that you would think could be possible here with these little waves, the shear will choke them off," Morgan explained. While water temperatures are warm enough to support development, they are not as favorable as they have been in recent years and are part of the reason for the lack of formation in the Atlantic. There is currently a high chance of another tropical cyclone developing in the Eastern Pacific over the next seven days, while the slow start in the Atlantic shows no signs of increased activity and is perfectly normal for this time of year, according to the FOX Forecast article source: Why Atlantic hurricane season is off to slow start while Eastern Pacific buzzes with tropical activity

How to Watch Brazil vs Paraguay: Live Stream CONMEBOL FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, TV Channel
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. World Cup qualifying continues on Tuesday in the battle for the UEFA spots in the 2026 World Cup. In this game, Brazil takes on Paraguay. This showdown will not only be one for the ages, but Brazil's 2026 World Cup fate is at stake when it hosts Paraguay. Antony of Brazil controls the ball during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 quarter final match between Croatia and Brazil at Education City Stadium on December 09, 2022 in Al Rayyan, Qatar. Antony of Brazil controls the ball during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 quarter final match between Croatia and Brazil at Education City Stadium on December 09, 2022 in Al Rayyan, to Watch Brazil vs Paraguay Date: Tuesday, June 10, 2025 Time: 8:40 PM EDT Channel: NBC Universo Stream: Fubo (Try for free) Five-time World Cup champion Brazil could leave itself at risk of failing to qualify for next year's tournament if it fails to get a home win over Paraguay at Arena Corinthians in Sao Paulo. Third-place Paraguay already has one win in this qualifying campaign and could move five points clear of Brazil with a win. Carlo Ancelotti makes his debut as the Brazil manager. Paraguay is assured a place in the inter-confederation playoff and cannot finish below seventh, but a win mid-week would dramatically improve its chance of an automatic qualifying spot. The team already pulled off one big win during this international window after beating Uruguay 2-0 last Thursday when Matias Galarza and Julio Enciso provided the goals.

Last time out, Julian Alvarez's early strike was enough to secure a 1-0 win over Chile. While Lionel Messi came off the bench in the narrow win against Chelsea (in a recent friendly), fans are eager to see him return to the starting lineup Tuesday. Colombia, on the other hand, is fighting to stay in contention. They currently sit sixth in the standings, just three points ahead of seventh-place Venezuela with three matches left. The pressure is on: Colombia hasn't won any of its last five matches and hasn't picked up a road win since July 2024. With plenty at stake for Colombia and pride on the line for Argentina, Tuesday's showdown promises intensity, passion, and maybe even a Messi masterpiece.
