    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0615 UTC Fri Jun 19 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 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    0500 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 26.5W, south
    of 17N, moving westward at around 10-15 kt. Any nearby convection
    is discussed in the ITCZ/MONSOON TROUGH section below.

    Another Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 47W, south of
    17N, moving westward at around 10 kt. Any nearby convection is
    discussed in the ITCZ/MONSOON TROUGH section below.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has its axis near 65W, south
    of 19N near the Anegada Passage to central Venezuela, moving
    westward at around 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is seen
    S of 14N between 62W and 68W.

    The western Caribbean tropical wave that was mentioned in the
    previous discussion is crossing Central America and moving into
    the Eastern Pacific. Please refer to the Eastern Pacific Tropical
    Weather Discussion for information on this wave.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic off the coast of Africa
    near 18N16W and extends SW to near 06N28W. The ITCZ extends from
    06N28W to 06.5N46W where it becomes ill-defined due to a tropical
    wave to the west. Numerous moderate to strong convection is seen
    from 03N to 11N and E of 20W. Scattered moderate convection is
    occurring from 02N to 10N between 25W and 45W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A ridge extends from subtropical high centered in the Atlantic to
    across Florida and the Gulf along 26N, with a surface trough
    emerging off the western Yucatan Peninsula. The pressure gradient
    between these features is supporting fresh to strong winds across
    much of the Gulf. Seas are in the 4-7 ft over much of the Gulf,
    reaching 8 ft off the coast of Louisiana to the western Florida
    Panhandle.

    For the forecast, the western periphery of Atlantic high pressure
    extends westward across Florida and to the central Gulf. The
    pressure gradient between the high pressure and relatively lower
    pressures over Texas and northeastern Mexico will generally
    support mostly fresh southerly winds over the western and central
    Gulf, and gentle to moderate anticyclonic winds over the eastern
    Gulf through Fri. Winds over the western and central Gulf will
    change little through early Mon, then diminish to gentle to
    moderate speeds afterward. Winds over the eastern Gulf become
    light to gentle in speeds beginning Fri night as weak high
    pressure settles over the eastern Gulf.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Please refer to the Tropical Waves section for details on
    convection associated with a wave in the eastern Caribbean.

    The broad subtropical ridge over the western Atlantic extends
    westward along 27N-28N and across central Florida. The pressure
    gradient between the ridge and the Colombian low is supporting
    fresh to strong winds over the south-central Caribbean and the
    Gulf of Honduras, where seas are in the 6-8 ft range. Moderate to
    fresh trades and 4-7 ft seas prevail in the eastern and NW
    Caribbean. Gentle to moderate winds and seas of 3-6 ft are across
    the remainder of the Caribbean. Scattered showers and isolated
    thunderstorms are ongoing in the central Caribbean to the north of
    the Colombia low.

    For the forecast, high pressure over the Atlantic will change
    little into next week. The pressure gradient between the high
    pressure and relatively lower pressure to its south will maintain
    fresh to strong trade winds and moderate to rough seas in the
    central Caribbean through the forecast period, with highest winds
    and seas expected off the coast of Colombia. Pulsing winds at
    fresh to strong speeds and moderate to rough seas are expected in
    the Gulf of Honduras nightly through Mon, pulsing briefly to near
    gale- force tonight and Fri night. Moderate to fresh east to
    southeast winds are expected elsewhere from 12N to 18N west of 80W
    through Mon night.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A frontal remnant trough extends from 31N30W to 26N44W. No
    significant convection is seen near the trough. The rest of the
    discussion waters N of 20N is dominated by high pressure anchored
    by a 1024 mb subtropical high centered near 27N59W. Moderate to
    fresh trades and moderate seas prevail across much of the Atlantic
    S of 20N as well as between the Bahamas and Cuba, with gentle to
    moderate or weaker E winds and 3-6 ft seas to the N of 20N.

    For the forecast west of 55W, high pressure across the basin will
    begin to shift slightly eastward Fri night as a cold front moves
    across the southeastern U.S. The front will move offshore
    northeast Florida during the weekend, then stall and weaken. Fresh
    to strong southwest winds are expected north of 30N and east to
    near 72W through Fri night. Moderate to fresh nightly pulsing
    fresh to strong winds south of 22N will continue into early next
    week.

    Tropical Weather Outlook
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    200 AM EDT Fri Jun 19 2026

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

    Offshore the East Coast of the United States (Remnants of Arthur):
    Showers and thunderstorms associated with a trough of low pressure
    (the remnants of Arthur) are located over the southeastern United
    States. The system is expected to emerge offshore the east coast of
    the United States by this afternoon. Environmental conditions then
    appear to be marginally conducive for some subtropical or tropical
    development tonight or Saturday as the system moves northeastward
    at around 20 mph across the Western Atlantic Ocean.

    Regardless of development, heavy rainfall with the potential for
    widespread and life-threatening flash flooding is likely across
    portions of the Southeast United States during the next day or two.
    Additional information on the rainfall potential can be found in
    rainfall forecasts and Excessive Rainfall Outlooks from the Weather
    Prediction Center online at www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov. More information
    on this system, including Gale Warnings, is available in High Seas
    Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service under AWIPS header
    NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and online at

    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
