    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Mon Jun 29 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.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A far eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 29W,
    south of 16N, moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate
    convection is found from 04-08N between 27W-31W.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 58W, south of
    14N, moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate convection
    is found along the wave axis and N of 06N.

    A tropical wave is over the eastern Caribbean along 68W, south of
    20N, moving westward near 10-15 kt. No convection is noted at this
    time.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 19N16W and continues
    southwestward to 11N28W. The ITCZ extends from 06N30W to 06N57W.
    Aside from the convection related to the tropical waves described
    above, no significant convection is present at this time.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    The subtropical ridge over the central Atlantic extends westward
    into the Gulf waters, supporting fresh NE-E winds W of 90W, and
    moderate SE winds E of 90W. Moderate seas prevail across the
    basin.

    For the forecast, fresh to strong NE to E winds will pulse off
    the NW Yucatan Peninsula nightly through Thu night. Moderate to
    fresh E to SE winds across the western half of the Gulf will
    diminish to gentle to moderate speeds Tue morning and then prevail
    the remainder forecast period. Moderate or weaker winds are
    expected elsewhere E of 90W, except for light to gentle winds in
    the NE Gulf.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The subtropical ridge north of the basin continues to force fresh
    to near-gale easterly trade winds across much of the central
    Caribbean. Seas in these waters are 8-10 ft. The strongest winds
    and highest seas are found off NW Colombia. Moderate to fresh
    easterly breezes and moderate seas are found in the eastern
    Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and slight to
    moderate seas prevail.

    For the forecast, the Bermuda-Azores High north of the basin
    combined with the Colombian Low will support fresh to strong
    tradewinds over the central Caribbean through the forecast period,
    reaching near-gale speeds offshore of Colombia at night. Moderate
    or lighter winds are forecast across the remainder of the basin
    during the next several days.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    An upper-level low centered north of the Leeward Islands combine
    with a surface trough along 63W to produce scattered showers and
    thunderstorms from 20N to 26N and between 57W and 64W. The
    remainder of the tropical Atlantic is dominated by a broad
    subtropical ridge, supporting moderate to fresh easterly winds
    and seas of 5-8 ft south of 25N and east of 30W.

    In the far eastern Atlantic, fresh to near gale-force northerly
    winds and seas of 5-8 ft are evident north of 18N and east of 20W.
    Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas are
    prevalent.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the Bermuda-Azores High will
    dominate the forecast area through today. While most of the basin
    will experience moderate or weaker winds, trades just north of
    Hispaniola will freshen in the afternoons and early evenings for
    the next several days. A weak cold front will push off of the SE
    United States coast today and extend from 31N73W to the central
    Florida peninsula by Tue morning. While the front is anticipated
    to dissipate on Wed, a broad low pressure area is expected to form
    along the western end of the frontal system today or Tuesday.
    Gradual development of this system is possible thereafter while it
    drifts westward over our NW waters north of 28N.

    For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

    Offshore of the Southeastern U.S. Coast:
    Disorganized showers and thunderstorms located off the southeastern
    U.S. coast are associated with an area of low pressure along a
    frontal boundary. Environmental conditions only appear marginally
    favorable for some tropical development over the next day or two as
    the system drifts southward and then westward before conditions
    become even less favorable later this week.
    * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
    * Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

    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.

    coordinated through AWIPS II Collaboration Chat, or by
    telephone:

    .GULF OF MEXICO...

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
