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 Fri Jul 24 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...
A tropical wave is west of the Cabo Verde Islands along 27W,
moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
confined to the monsoon from 08N to 13N between 19W and 26W.
A tropical wave is in the central Atlantic extending from 09N to
19N with axis near 49W, moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is from 10N to 18N between 40W and 52W.
A tropical wave is moving into the Caribbean along 62W, moving
westward at 10 to 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection has
developed ahead of the wave from 12N to 15N between 62W and 65W.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
Senegal near Dakar 15N17W and continues SW to 09N24W to 08N31W.
The ITCZ extends from 08N31W to 09N45W to 07N58W. Aside from the
convection associated with the tropical waves, scattered moderate
convection is noted from 06N to 12N between 30W and 35W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
The remnants of Bertha have devolved into a surface trough over
Texas, and will continue to move W away from the region, having no
further impact on the basin. A 1018 mb high over the NE Gulf is
supporting light to gentle variable winds in that region and
gentle to moderate E winds over the SE Gulf. Moderate mainly SE
winds prevail over the western basin. Seas are 2 to 4 ft in the
eastern Gulf and 3 to 5 ft in the west. Scattered convection from
a land-breeze is impacting waters within about 90 nm of the the
Florida Peninsula, otherwise dry conditions prevail.
For the forecast, high pressure will shift to the central Gulf
tonight. The high pressure will provide for a light to gentle
wind flow across the basin, except for pulsing moderate to fresh
winds off the Yucatan Peninsula through the weekend.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
Fresh to strong winds are noted in the south-central Caribbean
with seas of 5 to 7 ft. Moderate to fresh trade winds and
moderate seas are over the eastern Caribbean while gentle to
moderate winds with slight seas prevail elsewhere. An upper level-
low located near the Cayman Islands continue to support scattered
moderate convection over the NW basin and Windward Passage. In
the SW Caribbean, the E Pacific monsoon trough is supporting
scattered moderate convection S of 15N.
For the forecast, the pressure gradient between the Atlantic
ridge and the Colombian low will support fresh to strong winds
with moderate to locally rough seas across the south-central
Caribbean through the forecast period. Fresh to locally strong
winds will pulse across the Gulf of Honduras Sat night and
possibly Sun night. Moderate or weaker winds with slight to
moderate seas will prevail elsewhere.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A deep layer trough is inducing scattered moderate convection N of
24N between 58W and 78W. Otherwise, mainly moderate trades
dominate the entire basin due to the gradient between the
subtropical ridge and lower pressure to the south. Strong NE winds
and seas to 10 ft are impacting waters near the Canary Islands
where this gradient is tightest. Elsewhere, mainly moderate seas
prevail.
For the forecast west of 55W, a trough that extends from near
29N77W across the NW Bahamas will continue to drift west to
central and South Florida tonight. Scattered thunderstorms will
accompany the trough. Fresh trade winds are expected offshore
Hispaniola, including approaches to the Windward Passage through
the weekend. Moderate or weaker winds along with moderate seas are
forecast elsewhere. Looking ahead, a cold front may approach the
waters east of northern Florida late this weekend, preceded by
fresh southwest winds north of about 28N and east of 75W.

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
