    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Thu Jun 25 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
    1000 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    Caribbean Gale Warning:
    Tighter gradient between the Atlantic Ridge near 27N and a
    Colombian Low will cause trade winds off Colombia to peak at
    gale- force Fri night and early Sat morning. Seas under these
    winds are expected to range between 12 and 14 ft. Please refer to
    High Seas and Offshore Waters Forecast issued by the National
    Hurricane Center at websites:
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml and
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/marine/offshores.php for more
    information.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A far eastern Atlantic tropical wave is near 34W from 14N
    southward, and moving westward at 5 kt. Scattered moderate
    convection is observed from 02N to 13N between 31W and 37W.

    A eastern Caribbean tropical wave is near 69W from eastern
    Dominican Republic southward into northeastern Venezuela.
    Scattered moderate convection is seen at the northeastern
    Caribbean, including waters south of the Dominican Republic.

    A western Caribbean tropical wave is near 82W from near the
    Cayman Islands southward into western Panama. It is moving
    westward around 10 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted at
    the northwestern Caribbean, including the Gulf of Honduras and
    waters near the Island of the Youth.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    A monsoon trough stays mostly inland Africa. An ITCZ extends
    west-southwestward from just off Guinea to 07N33W, then continues
    west of a tropical wave from 06N37W to near the coastal border of
    French Guiana and Brazil. Scattered moderate convection is seen
    near the first ITCZ segment from 04N to 10N between 15W and 21W.
    Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is present up to
    90 nm along either side of the second ITCZ segment.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A stationary front curves northwestward from Cedar Key, Florida
    to near Gulfport, Louisiana. Scattered showers and isolated
    thunderstorms are occurring just east of New Orleans. Aided by
    divergent flow aloft, a diurnal trough is triggering scattered
    heavy showers and isolated thunderstorms at the southern Bay of
    Campeche. Otherwise, a 1017 mb high south of New Orleans is
    dominating much of the Gulf, with light to gentle winds and 1 to 3
    ft seas across the north-central and eastern Gulf. Moderate to
    fresh E to SE winds and seas of 3 to 5 ft prevail for the rest of
    the Gulf.

    For the forecast, the stationary front will trigger some showers
    and thunderstorms at the north-central and northeastern Gulf
    today. Otherwise, a ridge of high pressure is expected to persist
    across these areas into early next week. Gentle to moderate
    anticyclonic winds will generally prevail across the basin during
    this time, except for fresh to locally strong NE to E winds
    pulsing off the northwestern Yucatan Peninsula nightly, and
    moderate to fresh SE winds across the far northwestern Gulf
    through the weekend. Looking ahead, a weak frontal boundary will
    sink southward into the east-central Gulf Mon night and Tue.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Please read the Special Features section about an upcoming Gale
    Warning.

    Refer to the Tropical Waves section for convection in the
    Caribbean Sea. A broad Atlantic Ridge near 27N continues to
    support a robust trade-wind regime for the entire basin. Fresh to
    strong NE to E winds and seas of 9 to 12 ft dominate the south-
    central basin. Gentle to moderate NE to E winds and 3 to 6 ft seas
    are found at the northwestern and part of the southwestern basin,
    including waters near the Windward Passage. Moderate to fresh E
    winds and seas at 5 to 8 ft prevail elsewhere in the Caribbean
    Basin.

    For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
    ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong trade
    winds, and rough to very rough seas in the south-central basin
    through this morning, before expanding northward and covering the
    entire central basin this afternoon through Sat morning. Expect
    winds at near-gale force offshore of Colombia and in the Gulf of
    Venezuela during the nighttime and early morning hours. On Fri
    night and early Sat morning, winds off Colombia will peak at gale-
    force. Pulsing fresh to strong winds and moderate to locally rough
    seas are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly through Sat
    night. Fresh trades with rough seas should persist east of the
    Lesser Antilles through midday today, diminishing to moderate
    winds and seas thereafter through Sun.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A stationary front curves southwestward from a 1016 mb low off the
    Carolinas coast across 31N76W to beyond Palm Coast, Florida.
    Scattered showers and isolated strong thunderstorms are evident up
    to 95 nm southeast of the front. Farther east, an upper-level low
    near 31N64W is enhancing thunderstorms north of 25N between 60W
    and 69W. Refer to the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ and Tropical Waves
    sections for additional convection in the Atlantic Basin.

    The broad Atlantic Ridge near 27W is supporting light to gentle
    winds and 2 to 4 ft seas north of 22N and west of 65W, except
    moderate to fresh southerly winds off northeastern Florida and
    southern Georgia. Otherwise, gentle winds and 3 to 4 ft seas are
    anticipated north of 22N between 60W and the Florida coast.
    Farther east, moderate ENE to SE winds and 4 to 6 ft seas are
    noted north of 22N between 35W and 65W. For the tropical Atlantic
    from 06N to 22N between 35W and the southwest Bahamas/Florida
    coast, moderate to locally fresh ENE to E winds and seas at 6 to
    9 ft exist. For the remainder of the tropical Atlantic west of
    35W, mainly gentle E to SE winds and 4 to 6 ft seas will prevail.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned stationary front
    will trigger some showers and thunderstorms with gusty winds east
    of northeastern Florida through this evening. Otherwise, a broad
    ridge extending southwestward from a 1027 mb high near 34N50W
    across 31N61W to southern Florida will dominate the western
    Atlantic through the weekend. Fresh to strong easterly winds with
    locally rough seas are expected near the northern coasts of
    Hispaniola and Puerto Rico each late afternoon and night through
    Fri night. Otherwise, moderate to locally fresh trade winds and
    moderate seas are expected south of 22N through Fri. A north-to-
    south aligned surface trough across the central Atlantic will
    shift westward across the region early Fri through late Sat,
    reaching 70W Sun morning. This will weaken the ridge and lead to
    diminishing winds. Looking ahead, a weak cold front will sink
    southward into the waters off northeastern Florida Mon night

    near 31N64W is enhancing thunderstorms north of 25N between 60W
    and 69W. Refer to the Monsoon Trough/ITCZ and Tropical Waves
    sections for additional convection in the Atlantic Basin.

    The broad Atlantic Ridge near 27W is supporting light to gentle
    winds and 2 to 4 ft seas north of 22N and west of 65W, except
    moderate to fresh southerly winds off northeastern Florida and
    southern Georgia. Otherwise, gentle winds and 3 to 4 ft seas are
    anticipated north of 22N between 60W and the Florida coast.
    Farther east, moderate ENE to SE winds and 4 to 6 ft seas are
    noted north of 22N between 35W and 65W. For the tropical Atlantic
    from 06N to 22N between 35W and the southwest Bahamas/Florida
    coast, moderate to locally fresh ENE to E winds and seas at 6 to
    9 ft exist. For the remainder of the tropical Atlantic west of
    35W, mainly gentle E to SE winds and 4 to 6 ft seas will prevail.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned stationary front
    will trigger some showers and thunderstorms with gusty winds east
    of northeastern Florida through this evening. Otherwise, a broad
    ridge extending southwestward from a 1027 mb high near 34N50W
    across 31N61W to southern Florida will dominate the western
    Atlantic through the weekend. Fresh to strong easterly winds with
    locally rough seas are expected near the northern coasts of
    Hispaniola and Puerto Rico each late afternoon and night through
    Fri night. Otherwise, moderate to locally fresh trade winds and
    moderate seas are expected south of 22N through Fri. A north-to-
    south aligned surface trough across the central Atlantic will
    shift westward across the region early Fri through late Sat,
    reaching 70W Sun morning. This will weaken the ridge and lead to
    diminishing winds. Looking ahead, a weak cold front will sink
    southward into the waters off northeastern Florida Mon night

    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.
