280 Visitors Tracking The Tropics!
PLEASE SUPPORT TRACK THE TROPICS
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
0615 UTC Wed Jun 10 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 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0550 UTC.
...TROPICAL WAVES...
The axis of a tropical wave is near 40W, S of 14N, moving west at
around 15 kt. Nearby convection is discussed in the MONSOON
TROUGH/ITCZ section below.
The axis of a tropical wave is near 50W, S of 15N, moving
westward at around 15 kt. Nearby convection is discussed in the
MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ section below.
The axis of a tropical wave is near 60W, S of 18N, moving
westward at around 15 kt. There is no significant convection
associated with this wave at this time.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough extends off the coast of Africa near 12N16W
and extends SW to 06N24W. The ITCZ extends from 06N24W to
05N40W to 05N52W. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection
is noted from 04N to 11N between 09W and 19W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 02N to 10N between 31W and 57W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
A surface ridge associated with a 1021 mb high over northern
Georgia extends southwestward across the north-central and eastern
Gulf. The pressure gradient between this ridge and lower pressure
around TS Cristina and the eastern Pacific monsoon circulation is
supporting moderate to locally fresh E-SE winds over the SE Gulf
as well as the western half of the Gulf. Seas are 3-7 ft across
these waters, with the highest seas of 5 to 7 ft being across the
Yucatan adjacent waters and the Yucatan Channel. Elsewhere in the
NE Gulf, winds are moderate or weaker and seas slight. Otherwise,
scattered to isolated showers are ongoing across the waters from
the Yucatan Channel to the Florida Panhandle and south of the
Florida Big Bend.
For the forecast, surface ridging will continue to dominate the
Gulf region the next few days, supporting gentle to moderate east
to southeast winds over the eastern Gulf, and moderate to fresh
winds in the western Gulf through much of this week. Slight to
moderate seas will also prevail. The exception will be off the
Yucatan Peninsula, where a daily trough will support fresh E winds
pulsing to strong speeds during the evenings through Wed. A
trough or weak low pressure center may emerge from the Yucatan
Peninsula into the Bay of Campeche on Thu through Fri night,
accompanied by numerous showers and thunderstorms along with fresh
to strong winds and building seas.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
The pressure gradient between the Atlantic ridge and T.S.
Cristina in the Eastern Pacific offshore of Nicaragua supports
moderate to fresh winds with moderate seas in the north-central
and NW Caribbean W of 75W. Gentle to moderate trades and moderate
seas prevail elsewhere.
For the forecast, the pressure gradient will strengthen slightly
the next few days as high pressure moves into the W Atlantic,
leading to widespread moderate to fresh trades with fresh to
strong E winds in the south-central and NW Caribbean, including
the Gulf of Honduras. These conditions will prevail through the
forecast period. Elsewhere, moderate to fresh winds and mostly
moderate seas will prevail.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A weak cold front extends from 31N60W to 29N70W to 31N78W.
Thunderstorms persist east of the southern Bahamas near the
southern end of a surface pre-frontal trough extending from
30N55W to 22N65W. With these features, there is a weak pressure
gradient over the SW N Atlantic waters, which is resulting in
mainly light to gentle winds and slight seas, except for moderate
winds and moderate seas to 5 ft in the vicinity of the front.
The Azores High dominates the remainder of the discussion waters
N of 17N. A strong pressure gradient between the High and lower
pressure over NW Africa continue to support fresh to strong NE
winds and moderate to rough seas N of 20N and E of 35W. Moderate
or weaker winds and moderate seas are ongoing elsewhere in the
subtropical Atlantic. In the tropical Atlantic, the passage of two
tropical waves is supporting moderate to fresh trades between 40W
and the Lesser Antilles along with 7 to 8 ft seas.
For the forecast west of 55W, weak low pressure may form along
the surface trough Wed near 25N65W, which will then dissipate
through Thu as it moves to the northeast along with the trough.
Meanwhile, the cold front will stall along 30N east of 75W
through late Wed, then will shift northward Thu ahead of the weak
low pressure. The Atlantic ridge will build across the region late
Thu through Fri along roughly 25N. Looking ahead, this pattern
will support moderate to fresh E to SE winds north of Hispaniola
at night from Fri night through Sun night.

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
