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 Mon Sep 21 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.
...TROPICAL WAVES...
An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 30W, south of
18N, moving eastward at around 10 to 15 kt. No significant
convection is noted with this wave.
A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis near 46W, south of
21N, drifting slowly westward. Scattered moderate convection is
active on the northern end of the tropical wave from 18N to 21N
between 43W and 45W.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough extends off the coast of Africa near 15N17W to
09N25W. The ITCZ extends from 07N30W to 04N50W. Scattered
moderate convection is noted from 10N to 15N and east of 20W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
A weak pressure gradient prevails across the area generating
light to gentle winds and slight seas across the Gulf. An upper
low centered over west-central Florida is supporting clusters of
showers and thunderstorms south of Apalachicola, Florida, and
over the Florida Straits.
For the forecast, weak surface ridging across the southeastern U.S.
will maintain generally gentle to moderate winds across the
basin through midweek. A vigorous upper-level low and associated
surface trough over the southern Gulf will contribute to
scattered showers and thunderstorms over the eastern Gulf through
midweek, with the Straits of Florida the most active area. A cold
front may sink into the northern Gulf Thu night through Fri,
leading to a modest increase in winds across the basin.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
A relatively weak pressure pattern is across the basin. Moderate
to fresh winds and moderate seas prevail east of 80W. Light to
gentle winds and slight to moderate seas prevail west of 80W.
An upper trough reaches from the eastern Gulf into the northwest
Caribbean. Divergent flow aloft on the southeast side of the upper
trough is supporting clusters of showers and thunderstorms between
Nicaragua and Jamaica, and off western Cuba.
For the forecast, a modest pressure gradient between weak high
pressure currently near Bermuda and the Colombian Low will
maintain moderate to fresh trade winds over the south-central
Caribbean through the week. A vigorous upper-level low over the
eastern Gulf of America will continue to promote scattered to
numerous showers and thunderstorms over the west and northwestern
Caribbean through midweek.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
For awareness purposes, Tropical Storm Fay is centered near 33.8N
32.1W at 21/0900 UTC or 350 nm SW of the Azores, moving SSE at 2
kt. Estimated minimum central pressure is 995 mb. Estimated minimum
central pressure is 997 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 55 kt
with gusts to 65 kt.
An upper trough reaches from the eastern Gulf into the northwest
Caribbean. Divergent flow aloft on the southeast side of the upper
trough is supporting clusters of showers and thunderstorms from
the Florida Straits, southeast Florida, and across the central
and southern Bahamas. A weak pressure gradient prevails across
the discussion waters. Light to gentle winds prevail across the
waters west of 45W, except reaching moderate speeds near the
central and southern Bahamas. Slight to moderate seas prevail over
these waters. E of 45W, gentle to moderate winds and moderate
seas prevail.
For the forecast west of 55W, a very weak pressure gradient across the western
Atlantic will promote variable gentle to moderate winds across
forecast waters through early Thu. A vigorous upper-level low
over the Gulf of America and Florida, and abundant tropical
moisture across the Atlantic will force scattered showers and
thunderstorms across the waters west of 70W through Wed. Low
pressure will deepen offshore of the middle Atlantic coast of
the U.S. late Wed through Fri, allowing a cold front to move
into the far NW waters and N Florida Thu through Fri. The front
will be accompanied by increasing winds and the potential for
large N-NE swell.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Fay will move to 33.2N 32.3W this
afternoon, 32.3N 33.2W Tue morning, and 31.2N 34.9W Tue
afternoon. Fay will weaken to a remnant low near 30.4N 36.7W Wed
morning, then 29.8N 38.4W Wed afternoon, and 29.6N 40.1W Thu
morning. Fay will change little in intensity as it moves to 29.5N
43.0W by early Fri.

Practically all of the deep convection is confined to a band of showers and thunderstorms located well to the east of the well-defined low-level center. Using a blend of subjective and objective intensity estimates, the advisory intensity is reduced to 45 kt. Global model simulations show a strong upper-level trough shifting eastward from Fay during the next day or two. This evolution would allow for some relaxation of the shear, and this is also indicated by the Decay SHIPS model. However, the model guidance also indicates that the system is likely to encounter a drier low- to mid-level air mass, which should inhibit re-strengthening. Simulated satellite imagery from the ECMWF output shows Fay's deep convection mostly dissipated during the next few days. Therefore the official forecast, like the previous one, shows the cyclone degenerating into a remnant low by 48 hours. Fay is now moving southward at around 4 kt, along the eastern side of a mid-level high. Over the next several days, the cyclone is expected turn southwestward to west-southwestward and move around the southeastern and southern periphery of the high. This should keep the system over the open Atlantic through dissipation later in the week. Not much change has been made to the previous NHC track forecast, which remains in good agreement with the Google DeepMind ensemble mean and corrected model consensus, HCCA.

Fay is moving toward the south near 5 mph (7 km/h). A gradual turn toward the southwest and west-southwest is expected over the next few days. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Continued weakening is forecast, and Fay could degenerate to a post-tropical remnant low in a couple of days. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1000 mb (29.53 inches).

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.
