    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Fri Jun 19 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 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    1045 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A far eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 28W from
    02N to 18N moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Isolated showers are
    near the wave from 07N to 09N, and within 60 nm east of the
    northern portion of the wave.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 49W from 02N
    to 18N moving westward at around 10 kt. Isolated showers are
    within 120 nm either side of the wave from 08N to 12N.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has its axis along 65W/66W
    south of 19N near the Anegada Passage to central Venezuela. It
    is moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered showers and isolated
    thunderstorms are from 12N to 13N between 65W and 69W.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough axis enters the Atlantic off the coast of
    Africa near 18N16W and continues south-southwestward to 09N23W and
    06N35W. The ITCZ extends from 06N35W to 07N40W and to just east
    of a tropical wave near 08N48W. Numerous moderate to strong
    convection is just offshore the coast of Africa from 04N to 15N
    and reaches west to near 19N. This convection is in advance of
    the next tropical wave. Scattered moderate convection is within
    120 nm north of the ITCZ between 40W-46W, and within 60 nm of the
    ITCZ between 30W-37W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A high pressure ridge extends westward along 26N from a subtropical
    high located in the Atlantic to across Florida, and to the central
    Gulf. A trough has emerged off the Yucatan Peninsula. It is analyzed
    from near 25N90W to just inland Mexico at 19N93W. The pressure
    gradient between these features is supporting fresh to strong winds
    across much of the Gulf. Seas are in the range of 4 to 7 ft over
    most of the Gulf, except for higher seas of 6 to 8 ft in spots over
    the NW and west-central Gulf sections.

    For the forecast, the present synoptic pattern will change little
    going into the weekend. The pressure gradient between the high
    pressure and relatively lower pressures over Texas and northeastern
    Mexico will generally support mostly fresh southerly winds over
    the western and central Gulf, and gentle to moderate anticyclonic
    winds over the eastern Gulf through today. Winds over the western
    and central Gulf will change little through early Mon, then
    diminish to gentle to moderate speeds afterward. Winds over the
    eastern Gulf become light to gentle in speeds beginning tonight
    as weak high pressure settles over the eastern Gulf.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The pressure gradient between broad central Atlantic high pressure
    and lower pressures in northern South America is generally sustaining
    fresh to strong trade winds over the south-central Caribbean and
    the Gulf of Honduras, where seas are 6 to 8 ft. Moderate to fresh
    trade winds and seas of 5 to 7 ft are over the eastern and
    northwestern sections of the sea as noted by satellite altimeter
    data. Gentle to moderate winds and seas of 3 to 6 ft are across
    the remainder of the Caribbean.

    An area of scattered showers and thunderstorms is noted in the
    southwestern Caribbean from 10N to 14N between 77W and 82W. This
    activity is related to the eastern extension of the East Pacific
    monsoon trough that protrudes eastward across northern Costa Rica
    and to the northwest part of Colombia. Isolated showers and
    thunderstorms are elsewhere from 10N to 15N west of 74W to along
    the coast of Nicaragua. Similar activity is over the Windward
    Passage and just south of eastern Cuba.

    For the forecast, the high pressure over the central Atlantic
    will change little into next week. The pressure gradient between
    the high pressure and relatively lower pressure to its south will
    maintain fresh to strong trade winds and moderate to rough seas in
    the central Caribbean through the forecast period, with highest
    winds and seas expected off the coast of Colombia. Pulsing winds
    at fresh to strong speeds and moderate to rough seas are expected
    in the Gulf of Honduras nightly through Mon, pulsing briefly to
    near gale-force tonight. Moderate to fresh east to southeast
    winds are expected elsewhere from 12N to 18N west of 80W through
    Mon night.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A rather ill-defined trough extends from 31N30W to 26N38W and to
    near 26N46W. No significant convection is present near the trough.
    High pressure of 1023 mb is centered near 27N58W. High pressure
    covers the waters north of about 20N. The related pressure
    gradient is generally allowing for moderate to fresh trade winds
    along with moderate seas to exist across much of the Atlantic south
    about 21N as well as between the Bahamas and Cuba. Light to gentle
    anticyclonic winds are north of 21N east of 73W while fresh
    southwest winds are over the waters east of northern Florida to near
    73W. Seas are 4 to 6 ft north of 21N, except for lower seas of 2 to
    3 ft from 25N to 28N between 57W and 76W, and over the waters west
    of the Bahamas, including the Straits of Florida.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the high pressure over the basin
    will begin to shift slightly eastward tonight as a cold front
    moves across the southeastern U.S. The front will move offshore
    northeast Florida during the weekend, then stall and weaken. Fresh
    to strong southwest winds are expected north of 30N and east to
    near 72W through tonight. Moderate to fresh nightly pulsing fresh
    to strong winds south of 22N will continue into early next week.

    For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

    Offshore the East Coast of the United States (Remnants of Arthur):
    Showers and thunderstorms associated with a trough of low pressure
    (the remnants of Arthur) are located over the southeastern United
    States. The system is expected to emerge offshore the east coast of
    the United States later today. Environmental conditions appear to be
    marginally conducive for some subtropical or tropical development
    tonight or Saturday as the system moves northeastward at around 20
    mph across the Western Atlantic Ocean.

    Regardless of development, heavy rainfall with the potential for
    life-threatening flash flooding is likely across portions of the
    Southeast United States through tonight. Additional information on
    the rainfall potential can be found in rainfall forecasts and
    Excessive Rainfall Outlooks from the Weather Prediction Center
    online at www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov. More information on this system,
    including Gale Warnings, is available in High Seas Forecasts issued

    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...
    None.

    .CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN
