    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0015 UTC Sat Nov 14 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
    2330 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    North-Central Atlantic Gale Warning: A strong cold front extends
    from near 31N71W to the northern Bahamas and to South Florida.
    Strong southwest winds are ahead of the front while fresh
    northwest winds are behind it. The front is expected to reach
    from near 31N66W to the southeastern Bahamas by Sat morning, and
    from near 31N55W to near the Windward Passage by Sun morning.
    Gale-force southwest winds will develop late tonight into Sat
    morning ahead of the front north of 29N. These gale winds are
    expected to be short-lived as latest forecast has them ending at
    15Z. Seas with these winds are forecast to build to around 13 ft
    on Sat. Please, see the latest NWS High Seas Forecast issued by
    the National Hurricane Center at website
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml for further
    details.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough axis exits the coast of Africa near 12N17W,
    and continues southwestward to 09N20W, where it transitions to
    the ITCZ to 07N30W to 06N40W and to near 05N50W. Scattered
    moderate convection is within 120 nm south of the ITCZ between
    24W-29W, between 31W-35W and within 120 nm north of the ITCZ
    between 40W-45W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A cold front is analyzed from the Florida Keys to offshore
    Veracruz, Mexico. Mexico. Gentle to moderate winds, and slight
    to moderate seas are north of the front. Locally fresh winds and
    moderate seas are off Veracruz in the far southwest Gulf. Light
    to gentle winds and slight seas prevail elsewhere.

    For the forecast, the cold front will exit the basin tonight.
    Moderate to fresh north winds will veer easterly into Sat as
    high pressure builds southward toward the region in the wake of
    the front. These easterly winds will increase Sat night into
    Sun, to strong over the northern Gulf ahead of the next cold
    front that will move offshore Texas Sun night into Mon. Near
    gale-force winds are likely in the far northern Gulf ahead of
    this cold front early next week.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Fresh to strong winds and moderate seas remain over the waters east
    of 76W. Light to gentle winds, and slight to moderate seas, are
    noted elsewhere. A trough extends from central Cuba to the Gulf of
    Honduras. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are along and east of
    the trough to near 75W as well as over portions of central and
    eastern Cuba.

    For the forecast, fresh to strong trades over the eastern Caribbean
    will diminish Sat. A cold front will enter the northwestern
    Caribbean this evening. Moderate to fresh northeast to east winds
    are expected behind this front over the northwestern Caribbean Sat
    through Sun night. Trades are likely to strengthen again over the
    south central Caribbean starting Mon.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    Please see the Special Features section for information on
    upcoming gale conditions east of a cold front.

    A strong cold front extends from near 31N75W to the northern
    Bahamas and to South Florida. Strong southwest winds are ahead of
    the front impacting the Turks and Caicos and eastern Cuba while
    fresh northwest winds are behind it. Seas ahead of the front are 7
    to 11 ft and 5 to 7 ft behind it. A pre-frontal trough is analyzed
    from near 31N67W to 27N75W to west-central Cuba. To its NW, a very
    active subtropical jet stream rounds the base of a deepening broad
    upper-level trough. A series of upper-level disturbances are riding
    along the jet stream branch and combining with trough, which is
    resulting in numerous large clusters of numerous moderate to strong
    convection east of the trough to near 60W. Scattered moderate
    convection is seen from 24N to 30N between 54W and 60W. Over the
    central Atlantic, a trough is along 48W from 17N to 25N. No
    significant convection is occurring with this feature. A 1024 mb
    high center is north of the area at 34N35W, with a broad ridge
    stretching southwestward to the eastern portion of the Dominican
    Republic. Light to gentle winds are roughly over the waters north of
    about 24N between 35W and a line from 31N45W to 24N59W. Latest Ascat
    scatterometer data indicates a swath of fresh trades from 17N to 24N
    east of 50W, and also south of 15N east of the Windward Islands.
    Seas over these waters are 5 to 7 ft in wind generated waves, with
    northeast swell merging with east to southeast swell. The latest
    Ascat scatterometer data also indicates gentle to moderate winds
    over the remainder of the discussion waters along with mostly
    moderate seas.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned cold front is
    expected to reach from near 31N66W to the southeastern Bahamas
    by Sat morning, and from near 31N55W to near the Windward
    Passage by Sun morning. The frontal boundary should then stall
    and weaken into early next week. The pressure gradient between
    the front and building Bermuda high pressure will tighten
    leading to increasing NE winds S of 27N and W of 65W Mon, and
    these strong winds will expand northward Tue and Tue 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.

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
