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

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A far eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 25W from
    02N to 15N. It is moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered
    moderate convection is seen from 02N to 08N between 23W and 30W.

    An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 40W from 01N
    to 16N moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. Scattered moderate
    convection is seen along 40W in the immediate vicinity of the wave
    axis.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has its axis along 63W south
    of 19N. Decaying showers and thunderstorms are seen between the
    wave axis and the Lesser Antilles.

    A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 81.5W south of 18N. It
    is moving westward at about 15 to 20 kt. This wave is interacting
    with an upper- level low, with scattered moderate convection
    occurring S of 20N between 80W and 85W.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough axis enters the Atlantic ocean near 19N16W,
    and continues southwestward to 06N25W to 08N37W to 05N44W, where
    it transitions to the ITCZ and continues to 03N51W. Convection is
    described in the Tropical Waves section above.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    High pressure ridging stretches westward from the western
    Atlantic to across Florida and to the central Gulf, reinforced by
    a 1016 mb high in the eastern Gulf. The pressure gradient between
    the ridge and the relatively lower pressures over Texas and
    northeastern Mexico has induced moderate to fresh SE winds west of
    87W, with 3-6 ft seas. Elsewhere, light to gentle winds prevail
    along with seas 1 to 4 ft. Scattered moderate convection is
    occurring along a surface trough analyzed offshore the Texas
    coast.

    For the forecast, high pressure will prevail across the NE Gulf.
    The pressure gradient between the high pressure and relatively
    lower pressures over Texas and northeastern Mexico will maintain
    mostly fresh southerly winds over the western and central Gulf
    through late Mon night before diminishing to gentle to moderate
    speeds. Slight to moderate seas will be with these winds. Light
    winds along with slight seas will be over the eastern Gulf through
    Thu night as a new high center becomes situated over the central
    Gulf.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Please refer to the Tropical Waves section above for convection
    across the basin.

    The subtropical ridge extends north of the area over the western
    Atlantic. The pattern between this ridge and tropical waves over
    the eastern and western Caribbean is supporting fresh to strong
    trade winds across the central Caribbean, where seas are 7-10 ft.
    Recent scatterometer data indicated winds near gale-force in the
    south-central Caribbean closer to the Colombian coast. Moderate
    to fresh trade winds prevail elsewhere, with 5-7 ft seas, except
    for gentle SE winds 3-5 ft over the far northwestern Caribbean.

    For the forecast, high pressure will prevail north of the area
    into next week. The pressure gradient between the high pressure
    and the Colombian low will support 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 fresh to strong winds and moderate to
    rough seas are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly well into
    the upcoming week. Moderate to fresh winds are expected over much
    of the remainder of the Caribbean through the middle portion of
    next week. A tropical wave in the far eastern Caribbean will move
    through the eastern through late Mon, and across the rest of the
    basin through late Wed. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are
    expected near the wave. Another tropical wave located over the
    western Caribbean is producing scattered showers and thunderstorms
    across the waters west of 80W, and quickly moving westward. This
    wave will move inland Central America late tonight.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    The subtropical ridge extends across the entire Atlantic north of
    20N, anchored by a 1023 mb high near 27N54W. The pattern is
    supporting moderate to fresh trade winds and moderate seas across
    much of the Atlantic S of 20N. Gentle breezes prevail north of
    20N, with 2-5 ft seas in a broad mix of swell. Upper jet dynamics
    are supporting scattered showers and thunderstorms along 30N
    between 65W and the SE US Coast. Another area of scattered showers
    and thunderstorms is being supported mainly by upper jet dynamics
    east and NE of the Lesser Antilles.

    For the forecast west of 55W, a weak high pressure ridge along
    26N will shift slightly south on Sun, and change little through
    Thu night as surface troughing lingers near and offshore Florida.
    Moderate to fresh trade winds will pulse to strong south of 22N
    through Tue, then be at mostly fresh speeds through the rest of
    the forecast period.

    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.

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
