    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Fri Jul 3 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
    1040 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A tropical wave is W of the Cape Verde Islands near 25W, extending
    from 05N to 16N, and moving W at around 5 kt. Scattered moderate
    convection is noted from 05N to 13N between 20W and 30W.

    A tropical wave is moving across the Lesser Antilles this morning.
    The axis of the wave extends from inland E Venezuela to 19N and is
    near 61W, moving W at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
    noted from 09N to 18N between 54W and 68W.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 14N17W and continues
    southwestward to 08N35W. The ITCZ extends from 08N35W to 07N56W.
    Aside from the convection associated with the tropical waves, scattered
    moderate convection is evident from 07N to 13N E of 20W, from 06N
    to 10N between 30W and 36W, and from 05N to 09N between 37W and
    54W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    Weak high pressure extends from the western Atlantic SW across
    the SE U.S. and to the central Gulf waters, supporting light to
    gentle winds and slight seas across most of the basin, except for
    gentle to moderate E to SE winds over the Bay of Campeche
    associated with a surface trough. Aside from the moderate winds,
    the surface trough is generating heavy showers and scattered
    tstms in the SW Gulf.

    For the forecast, a weak surface ridge will dominate the basin
    through the forecast period. Fresh to strong NE to E winds will
    pulse off the NW Yucatan Peninsula nightly through early next week
    due to local effects associated with a daily surface trough.
    Gentle to moderate easterly winds will prevail across the western
    half of the Gulf while moderate or lighter winds are expected
    elsewhere E of 90W.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The pressure gradient between the subtropical ridge north of the
    islands and the Colombian Low continue to support fresh to strong
    easterly winds and seas of 8-10 ft in the central to SW
    Caribbean. The strongest winds and highest seas are found off NW
    Colombia. Moderate to fresh easterly winds and moderate seas are
    occurring in the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter
    winds and slight to moderate seas prevail. The E Pacific extension
    of the monsoon continue to support scattered showers over the
    Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia offshore waters. Shower activity
    is also ongoing in the E basin as a tropical wave moves across the
    Lesser Antilles this morning.

    For the forecast, the aforementioned pressure gradient between
    the subtropical ridge north of the islands and the Colombian Low
    will continue to support fresh to strong trade winds and moderate
    to rough seas over the central Caribbean through Tue night. Expect
    winds to reach near-gale force each night offshore of Colombia
    and in the Gulf of Venezuela. Otherwise, moderate to fresh trades
    will continue in the eastern Caribbean while moderate or weaker
    winds will prevail over the NW part of the basin. Active showers
    and thunderstorms are expected across the E Caribbean through
    tonight as a tropical wave moves across the region.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A surface trough, remnants of a statonary front, extends from a
    1017 mb low pressure near 31N73W to Freeport northern adjacent
    waters. Only isolated showers are noted in the vicinity of the
    trough. Otherwise, the Azores extends a ridge southwestward across
    the subtropical Atlantic waters, thus supporting mainly moderate
    or weaker winds across the region and moderate seas, except slight
    seas W of 65W.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the surface trough will gradually
    dissipate today while drifting northwestward toward the
    southeastern U.S. coast. The Atlantic ridge will then build weakly
    westward into central Florida through early next week. This
    pattern will support moderate to fresh E-SE trade winds S of 22N,
    and moderate or weaker winds elsewhere. Expect fresh to strong
    winds each late afternoon into the early evening hours near the
    coasts of Hispaniola and Puerto Rico.

    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...

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
