    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0015 UTC Fri Nov 13 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
    2020 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    North-Central Atlantic Gale Warning: a strong cold front is expected
    to move off the southeastern U.S. coast tonight accompanied by
    fresh to strong winds on either side of it. The front is expected
    to reach from near 31N66W to the southeastern Bahamas by Sat
    morning, and from near 31N55W to 25N65W and stationary to eastern
    Cuba by Sun morning. Fresh to gale-force winds southwest winds
    will precede the front to over the waters north of about 29N. The
    cold front portion will shift east of 55W late Sun night while the
    stationary portion weakens. Please, see the latest NWS High Seas
    Forecast issued by the National Hurricane Center at website
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml for further details.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough exits the coast of Africa near 08N13W and
    extends to 03N23W. The ITCZ extends from that point to near the
    coast of Brazil at 11N50W. Isolated to widely moderate convection
    is located from 01N to 07N to the E of 25W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A strong cold front extends from the extreme western Florida
    panhandle to southeastern Louisiana and to Brownsville, Texas. A
    pre-frontal trough is analyzed from 28N88W to Veracruz, Mexico at
    19N96W. Along with these surface features, a mid-level trough is
    supporting isolated to scattered showers across the majority of
    the basin. Moderate to fresh northerly winds are N of 23N and W of
    the front, with fresh to strong NW-N winds S of 23N and W of the
    front offshore of Veracruz. Moderate or weaker winds precede the
    front. Seas are in the 3-6 ft range S of 25N, and W of the front
    and 3 ft or less across the remainder of the waters.

    For the forecast, the front will sweep across the rest of the
    basin tonight exiting the area early on Fri. A pre-frontal trough
    in the western Gulf will sustain fresh to locally strong northwest
    to north winds near Tampico and Veracruz through early on Fri.
    Elsewhere, moderate to locally fresh north winds are expected in
    the wake of the cold front. High pressure will build southward
    into the region this weekend, with increasing easterly winds to
    fresh to strong speeds across portions of the northern and central
    Gulf. Looking ahead, a second strong cold front associated to
    possible low pressure is expected to push off the Texas coast Mon
    morning, and quickly move across the basin through Tue night. The
    resultant tight pressure gradient will lead to fresh to strong
    winds overspreading just about the entire basin. Winds to near
    gale-force are possible in the northern portion of the NE Gulf
    early next week.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The pressure gradient between the Bermuda High north of the region
    and a 1007 mb low pressure along the NW coast of Colombia is
    causing fresh to strong trades over the central Caribbean from 11N
    to 17N with seas 6-9 ft. Moderate to fresh trades are found
    elsewhere from 11N to 21N E of 76W, with moderate or weaker winds
    across the remainder of the basin. A pair of surface troughs are
    analyzed in the western Caribbean supporting scattered showers and
    thunderstorms mainly over the NW Caribbean waters.

    For the forecast, fresh to strong trades will prevail over the
    central and eastern Caribbean tonight, with gentle to moderate
    winds elsewhere. The pressure gradient will slacken starting Fri
    as a cold front approaches the Yucatan Channel leading to a
    weakening of the trades. Moderate to fresh northeast to east winds
    are likely behind this front over the northwestern Caribbean Sat
    through Sun. Looking ahead, fresh to strong trades may become
    reestablished over the south central Caribbean early next week.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A strong cold front is inland, moving across the SE United States.
    A pre-frontal trough is analyzed over the waters from 31N74W to NE
    of the Bahamas. Scattered moderate convection is found across the
    waters N of 20N and W of 60W. Moderate to fresh winds and 3-6 ft
    seas cover this same area, locally strong winds N of 30N. To the
    E, a weakening cold front is found from 31N30W to 28N52W
    supporting some isolated to widely scattered moderate convection
    from 20N to 31N between 50W and 60W, and from 26N to 31N between
    40W and 50W. Yet another cold front is to the E, reaching from the
    coast of Morrocco at 24N16W to 20N40W. Moderate to fresh winds are
    found N of the front to 29N between Morrocco and 20W. Rough seas
    are also found behind this front, mainly across the waters E of
    25W. Moderate seas are across the remainder of the waters. Broad
    high pressure blankets the remainder of the waters. A belt of
    moderate to fresh trades is found over the southern waters from
    06N to 16N to the W of 30W, with moderate or weaker winds across
    the remainder of the waters.

    For the forecast west of 55W, a strong cold front is expected to
    move off the southeastern U.S. coast tonight accompanied by fresh
    to strong winds on either side of it. The front is expected to
    reach from near 31N66W to the southeastern Bahamas by Sat morning,
    and from near 31N55W to 25N65W and stationary to eastern Cuba by
    Sun morning. Fresh to gale-force winds southwest winds will
    precede the front to over the waters north of about 29N. The cold
    front portion will shift east of 55W late Sun night while the
    stationary portion weakens. On Sun, winds will briefly diminish
    below fresh speeds over the forecast waters. Looking ahead, a
    building Bermuda High should increase northeast winds up to fresh
    to strong speeds south of 27N west of 65W Mon and Mon night, and
    expand northward in coverage Tue and Tue 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.

    .WARNINGS...Any changes impacting coastal NWS offices will be
    coordinated through AWIPS II Collaboration Chat, or by

    .GULF OF MEXICO...
