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 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1010 UTC.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic from the coast of Sierra
Leone near 08N13W and continues southwestward to 00N25W. The ITCZ
then continues from that point to the coast of Brazil at 03S39W.
Scattered moderate isolated strong convection is noted within 240
nm either side of the boundaries.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
A cold front stretches from Cape Coral, Florida SW to 24N90W to
Tampico, Mexico. Fresh to strong NE to E winds and moderate to
rough seas prevail behind the front over the NE basin E of 89W.
Moderate to fresh NE winds are ongoing in the E Bay of Campeche
with seas to 6 ft. Elsewhere winds are moderate or weaker and seas
slight to moderate.
For the forecast, the cold front will continue to bring fresh to
strong NE winds and moderate to rough seas across the NE and then
the SE Gulf through this evening as the front departs the area.
As a broad ridge builds in the wake of the front, moderate to
fresh E to SE winds and moderate seas will be sustained over the E
Gulf through Thu night. Moderate to locally fresh SE winds is
forecast for the western half of the Gulf with locally strong
east winds off the northern Yucatan Peninsula due to a trough
that will move every night to the Bay of Campeche.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
The pressure gradient between high pressure building in the wake
of the Gulf of America cold front and the Colombian low is
supporting fresh to near gale-force NE to E winds off Colombia and
fresh to strong NE winds in the Gulf of Venezuela. Winds of
similar speed are ongoing across the Windward Passage, the lee
side of Cuba and south of Hispaniola. Elsewhere, moderate or
weaker winds prevail.
For the forecast, the gradient of pressure between a ridge
extending to the northern Caribbean and the low pressure over NW
Colombia will continue to support strong to near gale-force NE to
E winds and rough seas offshore Colombia through Thu night. Fresh
to strong NE winds in the lee side of Cuba, the Windward Passage,
and south of Hispaniola will prevail through the end of the
forecast period due to strong high pressure that will build in the
wake of a cold front moving through the SW N Atlantic waters
through Wed.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A strong cold front extends from 31N65W SW to Boyton Beach,
Florida. Strong to near gale-force NE winds and rough to very
rough seas to 15 ft follows the front and is currently affecting
the offshore waters N of the Bahamas and west of 63W. Ahead of the
front, moderate to fresh NE winds and moderate seas prevail while
further east, a pre-frontal trough, is supporting scattered
showers. The remainder central and eastern subtropical Atlantic
waters are under the influence of the Azores ridge, which tightens
the pressure gradient and supports fresh to strong NE to E winds
and moderate to rough seas extending from the NW coast of Africa
to about 37W. Moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas are
elsewhere.
For the forecast west of 55W, the cold front will continue to
move SE through early Tue morning, bringing strong to near gale-
force N to NE winds and rough to very rough seas across the
offshore waters. The front is forecast to stall from the central
Atlantic to the SE offshore waters early Tue morning and gradually
weaken until dissipation by Wed night. Strong high pressure
building in the wake of the front will continue to bring fresh to
strong NE winds and rough seas to the offshores waters E of the
Bahamas and across the Great Bahama Bank beyond Thu night.

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.

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
