    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0015 UTC Mon Aug 3 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...

    An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 31W, south of 20N,
    moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered showers and isolated
    thunderstorms are present from 06N to 10N and between 30W and
    35W.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 63W, south of 17N,
    moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are
    active over northeastern Venezuela.

    A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 81W, south of 19N,
    moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered showers and thunderstorms
    are active off Nicaragua and Costa Rica.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Mauritania near 19N16W and dives southwestward to a 1011 mb low
    pressure near 16N30W and then to 10N45W. No significant convection
    is evident other than already described in the Tropical Wave
    section.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A stationary front reaches from Mobile Bay, Alabama across the far
    northwest Gulf to Galveston Bay, Texas. Scattered showers and
    thunderstorms are active across the northern Gulf from Texas to
    the Big Bend area of Florida. The Atlantic ridge extends east to
    west along roughly 24N, from the Florida Straits to the coast of
    Tamaulipas in northeast Mexico. This pattern is supporting
    moderate to fresh SW to W winds north of 28N where seas are 3-5
    ft, and gentle to moderate breezes and 1-3 ft seas elsewhere.

    For the forecast, relatively weak high pressure will remain in control
    of the weather pattern across the Gulf, promoting gentle to
    moderate winds into the upcoming week. The exceptions will be
    fresh NE to E winds off the northwest coast of the Yucatan
    peninsula nightly through the period, as well as the far
    northern Gulf, where a cold front approaching the coast will
    help to induce moderate to fresh W to SW winds through Mon.
    Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected over
    the eastern Gulf, and over the central Gulf N of 25N between 87W
    and 92W into the upcoming week as a mid to upper-level trough and
    a cold front approach the Gulf coast.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The westward- building subtropical high pressure system
    positioned over the central Atlantic forces fresh to strong
    easterly trade winds and rough seas over much of the central
    Caribbean. Moderate to locally fresh easterly winds and moderate
    seas are found in the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or
    weaker winds and slight to moderate seas prevail.

    For the forecast, the pattern will continue to support fresh to
    strong trades over the central basin through much of the week
    ahead. Fresh to strong winds will pulse in the Gulf of Honduras at
    night Mon through Thu. A tropical wave, near 82W is helping to
    enhance numerous showers and thunderstorms over the southwestern
    Caribbean. The wave will move inland Central America late tonight
    into early Mon.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    Favorable upper-level conditions and abundant tropical moisture
    combine to produce scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms
    between the northern Bahamas and Bermuda. Elsewhere, the tropical
    Atlantic is dominated by a 1026 mb high pressure system centered
    near 33N56W, supporting fresh to locally strong southerly winds
    and seas of 4-6 ft north of 28N and west of 75W. Elsewhere,
    moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas prevail across much of
    the remaining tropical Atlantic.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the pattern will change little through Tue,
    then lift north to central Florida on Wed and north of 31N on
    Thu. The pressure gradient between the ridge and a cold front
    moving through the southeastern U.S. will continue to support
    fresh to strong SW winds ahead of the front, along with scattered
    to numerous showers and thunderstorms over the majority of the
    area well into the upcoming week. Fresh to strong trades will
    pulse just north of Hispaniola at night through the period.

    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
