    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Mon Sep 14 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
    0925 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 49W, south of 18N,
    moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated
    strong convection is observed within 120 nm on both sides of the
    wave axis.

    Another central Atlantic tropical wave is along 51W, south of
    17N, moving westward at near 15 kt. A few showers are found near
    the wave.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic along the coast of Guinea
    near 13N16W and continues to 08N35W to 10N50W. The ITCZ extends
    from 10N52W to near 08N61W. Scattered to locally numerous
    moderate isolated strong convection is present from 04N to 14N and
    east of 45W.


    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A 1018 mb high pressure system over central Florida dominates the
    Gulf waters, supporting moderate to fresh E-SE winds and moderate
    seas south of a line from NE Texas to NE Yucatan. Elsewhere, light
    to gentle winds and slight seas prevail. Strong storms are noted
    off Veracruz in the Bay of Campeche and a few showers are
    occurring off western Florida.

    For the forecast, weak ridging over the NE Gulf will persist into Tue
    supporting relatively tranquil conditions across much of the basin.
    The exception will be the Bay of Campeche, where a diurnal trough
    will move westward offshore the Yucatan Peninsula each evening
    through late this week, bringing nightly pulses of fresh NE winds.
    Starting late Tue, stronger high pressure building southward from
    the eastern United States will lead to increasing NE to E winds
    over the basin, with speeds reaching fresh to strong and rough
    seas over the northern Gulf Wed through Thu night. Conditions will
    improve Fri.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Middle to upper-level low pressure is centered over Haiti, and
    promoting unstable conditions over south and east portions of the
    Caribbean. Multi-layered clouds with scattered showers and a few
    thunderstorms prevail over most of the eastern basin E of 71W,
    across the Lesser Antilles to 58W. Scattered strong convection is
    occurring across the SW Caribbean south of 16N.

    A tight pressure gradient continues to support fresh to near
    gale-force easterly trade winds and rough seas across much of the
    central Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras. Moderate to fresh NE-E
    winds and moderate seas are occurring in the eastern Caribbean and
    Windward Passage. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight
    to moderate seas prevail across the remainder of the NW basin.

    For the forecast, the subtropical ridge centered north of the
    Bahamas and lower pressures in Colombia combine to sustain fresh
    to locally near gale-force easterly trade winds and moderate to
    rough seas across much of the central Caribbean. These conditions
    will persist through the workweek. Strong winds in the Gulf of
    Honduras will diminish this morning. Meanwhile, moderate to fresh
    easterly breezes are expected over the next several days in the
    eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and slight
    to moderate seas are expected.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A broad subtropical ridge dominates the SW North Atlantic,
    allowing for light to gentle winds and slight to moderate seas
    across much of the area, west of 55W. Fresh easterly winds are
    noted off northern Hispaniola. A surface trough along 47W in the
    central Atlantic is producing numerous showers and isolated
    thunderstorms north of 24N and between 41W and 60W. Gusty winds
    and higher seas are likely occurring near these storms. Elsewhere,
    an expansive ridge persists in the central and eastern Atlantic,
    supporting moderate or weaker seas and moderate seas across the
    area.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned ridge will force
    fresh to locally strong easterly winds off Hispaniola and in the
    Windward Passage tonight. On Tue, strong high pressure building
    southward through the eastern United States will bring a cold
    front into the NW waters, increasing NE winds to fresh to locally
    strong and causing seas to build to rough N of the Bahamas and W
    of 70W through Thu. Conditions will improve Thu night into Fri.
    During the middle to later portion of the week, a trough of low
    pressure is forecast to move west-northwestward into the NE
    portion of the waters, bringing thunderstorms.

    800 AM EDT Mon Sep 14 2026

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

    Central Subtropical Atlantic:
    A trough of low pressure located a little more than 1000 miles
    east-southeast of Bermuda continues to produce disorganized showers
    and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions over the system are
    currently unfavorable for development due to strong upper-level
    winds. However, as the system moves west-northwestward across the
    central part of the Subtropical Atlantic, it is forecast to enter a
    more conducive environment for gradual development by the middle to
    latter portion of this week.
    * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
    * Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

    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
