    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0015 UTC Fri Oct 30 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 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    2200 UTC.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic through the coast of
    Guinea Bissau near 11N16W and continues to 08N26W. The ITCZ
    extends from 08N26W to 09N39W, where it is broken by a surface
    trough. The ITCZ then resumes from 07N44W to 10N63W. Scattered
    moderate convection is noted from 05N-11N between 24W-37W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    High pressure over the Tennessee Valley extends a ridge north of
    the Gulf. The pressure gradient tightens over the eastern half of
    the Gulf due to the presence of a stationary front north of the
    Bahamas and a trough near the Yucatan Peninsula. This is resulting
    in moderate to fresh NE winds east of 91W along with moderate to
    locally rough seas. Moderate or weaker winds prevail west of 91W.

    For the forecast, a tight pressure gradient between a high
    pressure system over the Carolinas and low pressure over the
    Bahamas will continue to support moderate to fresh NE to E winds
    and moderate seas in the northeast and north-central Gulf into
    early next week. Looking ahead, expect fresh SE to S winds over
    much of the northwest Gulf by Tue night between high pressure over
    the western Atlantic and a cold front moving through the Southern
    Plains.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    A stationary front over the SW N Atlantic waters is supporting a
    weak gradient over the Caribbean waters west of 76W, thus leading
    to light to gentle winds and slight seas. Moderate to fresh
    trades and moderate seas are elsewhere. A surface trough extending
    from the Windward Passage into the central Caribbean is
    supporting scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms north of
    15N between 70W-77W.

    For the forecast, moderate to locally fresh trade winds will
    continue south of 15N through the eastern, central and portions of
    the SW Caribbean through Sun night, then diminish. Light to
    gentle breezes are forecast elsewhere into early next week.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A stationary front extends east to west along roughly 29N/30N to
    a 1012 mb low pressure area centered near the northern Bahamas,
    then southwestward as a trough to the Florida Straits. A tight
    pressure gradient exists between a high pressure system over the
    NW Atlantic and the stationary front. Fresh to strong NE to E
    winds and rough seas prevail north of the front and west of 55W.
    Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are occurring north
    of 23N between 65W-73W. The aforementioned stationary front
    connects to a cold front near 29N31W and extends northeastward to
    31N29W. Scattered showers and tstms are north of 23N and ahead of
    the front to 23W. Moderate to fresh winds are east of 60W north of
    the front with seas of 6-8 ft. Otherwise, moderate or weaker winds
    and moderate seas are elsewhere.

    For the forecast west of 55W, Fresh to strong NE to E winds and
    rough seas will persist north of the front into next week as the
    low pressure moves northeastward to past Bermuda and the newly
    reinforced front moves to the southeast then stalls along 24N.

    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...
    None.

    .CARIBBEAN SEA AND TROPICAL N ATLANTIC FROM 07N TO 19N BETWEEN

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
