    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0015 UTC Mon Jul 6 2026

    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 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    2230 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A tropical wave is along 28W S of 17N, moving W at 10 to 15 kt.
    Scattered moderate convection is noted across the southern half of
    the wave S of 10N.

    An Atlantic tropical wave is near 37W and S of 18N, moving W at
    10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted across the
    southern half of the wave S of 10N.

    An Atlantic tropical wave is near 46W from 02-17N, moving W at
    around 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted across the
    southern half of the wave S of 10N.

    A Caribbean tropical wave is near 77W, south of 19N, moving W at
    at 10-15 kt. Scattered showers are along the wave axis.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 14N17W to 10N19W.
    The ITCZ continues from that point between the tropical waves to
    08N59W. Scattered moderate convection is noted within 200 nm on
    either side of the ITCZ and W of 30W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    The subtropical ridge extends across the Florida Peninsula and
    across the northern Gulf to the coast of Texas. Farther south, a
    weak trough is positioned over the Bay of Campeche. This pattern
    is supporting fresh NE winds off the west coast of the Yucatan
    Peninsula, as noted in a recent scatterometer satellite pass.
    Gentle to moderate breezes are observed elsewhere. Seas are
    generally 1-3 ft across the basin. Scattered moderate convection
    is active over the eastern Gulf at the base of an upper trough
    that extends over the Mississippi River valley.

    For the forecast, little change is expected in the weather
    pattern across the Gulf region as a ridge continues to dominate
    the basin. Gentle to moderate winds are forecast over the western
    Gulf with light to gentle winds over the eastern Gulf. The
    exception will be pulsing winds reaching fresh to strong speeds
    off the northwestern Yucatan Peninsula nightly through Fri. These
    winds are the result of local effects associated with a surface
    trough. Slight to moderate seas are expected basin-wide.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The subtropical ridge extending north of the area across the
    western Atlantic is supporting moderate to fresh trade winds
    across the eastern and central Caribbean as well as the Gulf of
    Honduras, with strong E winds noted off northeast Colombia and
    northwest Venezuela. Gentle to moderate breezes are noted
    elsewhere. Seas are 5-7 ft over the eastern and central Caribbean,
    and 3-5 ft elsewhere except 1-3 ft in the far northwest
    Caribbean. A mid to upper level trough extends from the western
    Atlantic across eastern Cuba and Jamaica, and toward Nicaragua.
    Upper level divergent flow along with convergent lower level trade
    wind flow is supporting scattered showers and thunderstorms off
    the coasts of Nicaragua and Honduras.

    For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic ridge
    north of the basin and the Colombian Low will continue to support
    fresh to strong trade winds and moderate to rough seas over the
    central Caribbean through Fri night. The aerial extent of these
    winds will increase tonight into Mon as the Atlantic ridge
    continues to build westward. By Wed, the fresh to strong winds are
    expected to extend across most of the east and central Caribbean.
    Expect winds to reach near-gale force at night offshore of
    Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela from tonight through Fri.
    Moderate or weaker winds will prevail over the NW part of the
    basin, except in the Gulf of Honduras where fresh to strong E to
    SE winds are forecast at night tonight through Tue.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    The subtropical ridge dominates the Atlantic north of 20N, and is
    anchored by 1025 mb high pressure centered near 28N38W. Scattered
    moderate convection is occurring along a surface trough analyzed
    from 31N53W to 29N72W. The pattern is supporting gentle to
    moderate breezes and 3-5 ft seas along and west of the ridge axis,
    and moderate to fresh NE to E trade winds and 5-7 ft seas east
    and south of the ridge axis.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the Atlantic ridge will continue to
    build westward across central Florida into the eastern Gulf of
    America early this week. This pattern will support moderate to
    fresh E to SE trade winds S of 22N, and moderate or weaker winds
    elsewhere. Strong winds, with moderate to rough seas, are
    expected at night north of Hispaniola, including approaches to the
    Windward Passage, from tonight through Fri.

    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.

    .WARNINGS...Any changes impacting coastal NWS offices will be
    coordinated through AWIPS II Collaboration Chat, or by
    telephone:

    .GULF OF MEXICO...

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
