Track The Tropics is the #1 source to track the tropics 24/7! Since 2013 the main goal of the site is to bring all of the important links and graphics to ONE PLACE so you can keep up to date on any threats to land during the Atlantic Hurricane Season! Hurricane Season 2026 in the Atlantic starts on June 1st and ends on November 30th. Do you love Spaghetti Models? Well you've come to the right place!! Remember when you're preparing for a storm: Run from the water; hide from the wind!

    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1815 UTC Sat Mar 14 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 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    1800 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    Gulf of America Gale Warning:
    A strong cold front is expected to enter the NW Gulf by Sun night.
    As the front moves across the basin through early next week, gale-
    force NW winds will develop in the wake of the front, mainly W of
    90W. Peak sustained winds of 35 to 45 kt, with gusts to storm-
    force and very rough seas of up to 15 ft, can be expected offshore
    of Veracruz. These conditions will dissipate by late Mon.

    Please refer to the latest High Seas Forecast issued by the
    National Hurricane Center at website -
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml for details.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic from the coast of Guinea near
    09N13W and continues to 04N19W. The ITCZ continues from that
    point to 03S42W. Scattered moderate convection is noted along and
    within 150 nm on either side of these features.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A frontal remnant trough is analyzed through the Florida Straits,
    with scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms developing along
    the trough axis. Ridging prevails across the Gulf otherwise, with
    gentle to moderate trades and slight seas prevalent basin-wide.

    For the forecast, a frontal remnant trough extends through the
    Florida Straits. A strong cold front is expected to move into the
    NW Gulf Sun night, quickly reaching the southeastern Gulf by Mon
    night and slow down as it moves into the northwestern Caribbean by
    late Tue. Strong to gale- force N winds will follow the front
    along with seas rapidly becoming rough. Gale-force winds will be
    possible in the NW Gulf, and offshore Tampico and Veracruz, Mexico
    on Sun night and Mon. The winds offshore Veracruz may attain
    gusts to storm- force. In the wake of the front, high pressure
    will build across the region into midweek.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The pressure gradient between north-central Atlantic high
    pressure and lower pressure in Colombia is supporting pulsing
    fresh to strong trades across the south-central basin. Rough seas
    are expected with these winds, mainly offshore Colombia. Moderate
    to fresh E trade winds and moderate seas prevail elsewhere E of
    80W, while gentle to moderate E winds and slight seas are noted W
    of 80W.

    For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic high
    pressure and lower pressure in Colombia will support pulsing
    fresh to strong trades across the central Caribbean today. New
    high pressure will build westward across the west and central
    Atlantic on Sun, with the resulting pressure gradient leading to
    fresh to strong trades and building seas extending from the
    Tropical N Atlantic on Sun to the eastern and central Caribbean,
    including the passages on Mon. The pressure gradient will weaken
    by Tue as a cold front approaches the NW Caribbean.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A frontal remnant trough is analyzed from the Florida Straits to
    the northern Bahamas to the waters offshore SW Bermuda. Scattered
    moderate convection is developing along and near the trough axis.
    Much of the remaining Atlantic is under the influence of ridging
    from the 1034 mb Azores high. Fresh to strong trades and seas of
    6-10 ft prevail across much of the waters E of 60W. Moderate to
    fresh trades and moderate seas prevail W of 60W and S of 24N.
    Gentle to moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas prevail
    elsewhere.

    For the forecast west of 55W, a frontal remnant trough extends
    from near 31N70W to the Straits of Florida. Atlantic high pressure
    will build west- southwestward toward the Bahamas through the
    weekend before it will retreat eastward early next week in
    response to the next cold front. The front will move off the U.S.
    southeastern coast Mon evening, then slow down and stall from near
    31N70W to the central Bahamas and to central Cuba by late Tue.
    Fresh to strong southerly winds and rough seas will develop over
    the NW forecast waters starting Sun afternoon ahead of the front.
    Fresh to strong northwest winds will follow the front through Tue.
    To the south, rough seas produced by long-period E swell will
    impact the waters E of the Bahamas early next week before slowly
    subsiding during midweek.

    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.

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
