From June 1 to 10, the current Inter-Tropical Front (ITF) moved northward for most of its length, except in Mauritania and Mali, where it moved southward compared to its previous position. The western (10W-10E) portion of the ITF was located approximately at 15.5N, which is 0.4 degrees below the climatological position. Additionally, in the eastern (20E-35E) portion, the ITF was approximated at 12.6N, falling short of the long-term average position by 1.0 degrees. Figure 1 displays the current position of the ITF during the 1st dekad of June and its previous position during the 3rd dekad of May. Figures 2 and 3 are time series that illustrate the latitudinal positions of the western and eastern portions of the ITF, respectively, along with their seasonal evolutions since April 2025.
