BULLETIN
Post-Tropical Cyclone Gonzalo Advisory Number 8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072026
800 PM CVT Sat Sep 26 2026
...GONZALO NO LONGER A TROPICAL CYCLONE...
...THIS IS THE FINAL ADVISORY...
SUMMARY OF 800 PM CVT...2100 UTC...INFORMATION
----------------------------------------------
LOCATION...19.3N 23.3W
ABOUT 180 MI...290 KM N OF SAL CABO VERDE
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...40 MPH...65 KM/H
PRESENT MOVEMENT...NNW OR 345 DEGREES AT 7 MPH...11 KM/H
MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1005 MB...29.68 INCHES
WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect.
DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 PM CVT (2100 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone
Gonzalo was located near latitude 19.3 North, longitude 23.3 West.
The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the north-northwest near
7 mph (11 km/h) and this general motion is forecast to continue
through the weekend, with a slow down and turn to the west-northwest
expected by early next week.
Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts.
Additional weakening is forecast, and the post-tropical cyclone is
expected to dissipate over eastern Subtropical Atlantic by the
early to mid portion of next week.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km)
from the center.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1005 mb (29.68 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Gonzalo are expected to affect portions
of the Cabo Verde Islands this evening before diminishing Sunday.
These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip
current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather
office.

Post-Tropical Cyclone Gonzalo Discussion Number 8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072026
800 PM CVT Sat Sep 26 2026
The bulk of the convective activity associated with Gonzalo has
become even further separated from its center this afternoon. This
increased separation is due to strong southwesterly vertical wind
shear, diagnosed at nearly 50 kt this afternoon by UW-CIMSS. In
addition, water vapor imagery shows very dry air infiltrating the
low-level circulation, limiting convective redevelopment. Given that
the nearest convection is now more than 100 n mi away from the
center, lacks sufficient organization, and that these very
unfavorable conditions are likely to persist, Gonzalo is being
declared a post-tropical cyclone in this advisory. The maximum
sustained winds remain 35 kt, assuming some higher winds exist in
the convection displaced well northeast of the center. The
post-tropical cyclone is still moving off to the north-northeast at
045 degrees at 6 kt. Downshear convection may still attempt to tug
the center more northward over the next 12-24 h. However, as this
activity diminishes, a shallow low-level ridge should steer the
remnant low more west-northwest during the early portion of next
week before dissipation.
This is the final NHC advisory on Gonzalo. Additional information
on this system can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the
National Weather Service, under AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header
FZNT01 KWBC, and online at ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.php
