Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America
Gulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South
America, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the
Equator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite
imagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.
Based on 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1800 UTC.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Sierra Leone near 08N13W and continues southwestward to 01N22W.
The ITCZ extends from 01N22W to 02S45W. Numerous moderate and
isolated strong convection is south of 07N and east of 23W.
GULF OF AMERICA...
A broad subtropical ridge over the eastern Gulf waters supports
moderate to locally fresh easterly winds in the SW Gulf and Bay of
Campeche. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight seas
prevail. Dry weather conditions dominate the basin.
For the forecast, high pressure centered over the eastern Gulf
will maintain gentle to moderate SE winds and slight to moderate
seas across the western Gulf, and light to gentle breezes over the
eastern Gulf into late week. A trough over the Bay of Campeche
will support occasional moderate to fresh winds off the northern
and western coasts of the Yucatan Peninsula mainly at night
through mid-week.
CARIBBEAN SEA...
High pressure remains in place over the eastern Gulf of America
and also the W Atlantic N of the Turks and Caicos Islands. A cold
front and attendant frontal remnant trough extend from the Anegada
Passage into the central Caribbean. Recent scatterometer
satellite passes confirmed fresh to strong NE winds through the
northern Caribbean passages as well as in the lee of both
Hispaniola and Cuba. Moderate seas prevail in these waters.
Moderate or weaker trades and 3-5 ft seas prevail elsewhere
across the Caribbean.
For the forecast, building high pressure over the western
Atlantic will support fresh to locally strong NE winds south of
Cuba, the Windward Passage, and just south of Hispaniola into
tonight. Fresh to strong winds and moderate to rough seas will
develop offshore Colombia Tue through Fri, mainly at night, as the
high pressure moves slightly eastward.
ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A cold front extends from 31N51W to the U.S.V.I and Puerto Rico.
Recent satellite scatterometer data indicates strong to near-gale
force SE winds north of 27N and east of the front to 46W, and
fresh to strong NW winds north of 27N and west of the front to
58W. Combined seas are 8 to 12 ft north of 25N between 47W and
60W. In the rest of the SW North Atlantic west of 50W, a
subtropical ridge anchored by a 1019 mb high near 27N70W is
sustaining moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas.
In the eastern Atlantic, a weakening 1005 mb low pressure
centered SW of the Canary Islands forces fresh to strong N-NE
winds and rough to very rough seas north of 20N and east of 30W.
N-NW swell support rough seas in the eastern Atlantic and central
Atlantic trade waters. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and
moderate seas prevail.
For the forecast west of 55W, a cold front extends from 31N50W to
the U.S.V.I. and Puerto Rico. Fresh to strong winds and rough
seas follow the front over the waters north of 27N and east of 61W
this morning. The cold front is forecast to move into the central
Atlantic through early Wed while gradually dissipating. A new
cold front is forecast to enter the offshore waters between
northeast Florida and Bermuda tonight into Tue, followed by fresh
to strong NE to E winds and rough to very rough seas. These marine
conditions are forecast to affect most of the waters north of 28N
into mid-week before the front stalls then lifts northward.

Marine Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1122 AM EDT Mon May 17 2021
Marine Weather Discussion for the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea,
and Tropical North Atlantic from 07N to 19N between 55W and 64W
and the Southwest North Atlantic including the Bahamas
This is the last Marine Weather Discussion issued by the National
Hurricane Center. For marine information, please see the Tropical
Weather Discussion at: hurricanes.gov.
...GULF OF MEXICO...
High pressure along the middle Atlantic coasts extending SW to
the NE Gulf will remain generally stationary throughout the
week. This will support moderate to fresh E to SE winds over the
basin through Tue. Winds will increase to fresh to strong late
Tue through Fri as low pressure deepens across the Southern
Plains.
...CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN
55W AND 64W...
A ridge NE of the Caribbean Sea will shift eastward and weaken,
diminishing winds and seas modestly through Wed. Trade winds
will increase basin wide Wed night through Fri night as high
pressure builds across the western Atlantic.
...SW N ATLANTIC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS...
A weakening frontal boundary from 25N65W to the central Bahamas
will drift SE and dissipate through late Tue. Its remnants will
drift N along 23N-24N. The pressure gradient between high
pressure off of Hatteras and the frontal boundary will support
an area of fresh to strong easterly winds N of 23N and W of 68W
with seas to 11 ft E of the Bahamas late Tue through Fri.

None.
.CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN

The tropical cyclone statistics from the TWS will be found <br />on hurricanes.gov beginning with the 2025 hurricane season. This <br />change will allow for more frequent updates to the statistics and <br />the addition of graphics and links to supporting information that <br />this text only format cannot support. An account of tropical <br />cyclone names, classification (i.e., tropical depression, tropical <br />storm, or hurricane), and maximum sustained wind speed will be found <br />on hurricanes.gov at this url beginning around July 1: <br /><br />https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/index.php?basin=atl<br /><br />A sample webpage is provided here, with the "2023 Atlantic Summary <br />Table (PDF)" example linked below the Tropical Cyclone Reports <br />(TCRs):<br /><br />https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/index.php?season=2023&basin=atl <br /><br />This information will be updated no less frequently than monthly <br />during the hurricane season and will be updated after the season's <br />TCRs are completed to document the official record of the season's <br />tropical cyclone activity. Previously, the statistics and data in <br />the TWS were based on real-time operational assessments and were <br />not updated when the season's TCRs were complete. The new <br />web-based format allows the information to be updated once the <br />post-analysis for the season is complete. <br /><br />For more information, see Service Change Notice 25-22: Migration of <br />the Tropical Weather Summary Information from Text Product Format to <br />hurricanes.gov:<br /><br />https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/pdf_2025/scn25-<br />22_moving_info_from_tws_to_hurricanes.gov.pdf
