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
1215 UTC Sat Nov 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
0830 UTC.
...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Atlantic Gale Warning: A cold front extends from 31N67W to the
Florida Straits. Gale force winds and rough seas prevail N of 29N
within 150 nm east of the front. These gales will be short-
lived, with winds diminishing below gale force this afternoon.
Thereafter, strong winds will prevail ahead of the front into Sun
morning, when the front will reach from near 31N55W to near the
Windward Passage.
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 extends from 12.5N16W to 10N20W. The ITCZ
extends from 10N20W to 06N40W to 03N50W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 03N to 07N between 20W and 43W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
Moderate to fresh winds, and moderate seas, prevail east of 90W.
Gentle to moderate winds, and slight to moderate seas prevail west
of 90W.
For the forecast, moderate to fresh winds will prevail today as
high pressure builds southward toward the region. These winds will
strengthen tonight into Sun over the northern Gulf ahead of a
cold front that will move offshore Texas Sun night into Mon. Near
gale- force winds are likely in the far northern Gulf ahead of
this cold front early next week.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
Fresh to locally strong winds and 5-7 ft seas prevail over the
waters east of 70W. A trough extends from central Cuba to the
Gulf of Honduras, with gentle to moderate winds and moderate seas
west of the trough. Light to gentle winds, and slight to moderate
seas, are noted elsewhere.
For the forecast, fresh to strong trades over the eastern
Caribbean will diminish today. Moderate to fresh northeast to east
winds will prevail behind a surface trough over the northwestern
Caribbean through Sun night. Trade winds are likely strengthen
again over the south central Caribbean starting Mon.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
Please see the Special Features section for information on gale
conditions east of a cold front.
A cold front extends from 31N67W to the Florida Straits. Numerous
thunderstorms are within 210 nm east of the front. Aside from the
gale force winds, strong to near- gale force winds and rough seas
are noted N of 24N E of the front to 59W. A reinforcing front is
from 31N76W to S Florida. Fresh to strong winds and moderate to
rough seas prevail west of this front. Elsewhere W of 59W,
moderate to fresh winds and moderate seas are noted. The remainder
of the waters N of 15N are dominated by high pressure, anchored by
a 1026 mb high centered near 32N30W. Gentle to moderate winds and
moderate seas are found N of 25N and E of 42W. Moderate to fresh
winds and moderate seas prevail elsewhere.
For the forecast west of 55W, in addition to the aforementioned
gale-force winds and accompanying rough seas, strong winds will
prevail ahead of the front into Sun morning, when the front will
reach from near 31N55W to near the Windward Passage. The boundary
should then stall and weaken into early next week. The pressure
gradient between the front and building Bermuda high will tigthen,
leading to increasing NE winds S of 27N and W of 65W Mon, and
these strong winds will expand northward Tue and Tue night.

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.

.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
55W AND 64W...

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
