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
1815 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 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
1638 UTC.
...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Atlantic Gale Warning: A cold front extends from Bermuda to
central Cuba. Gale force SW winds are N of 29N ahead of the front, W
of 60W. These gales will be short- lived, with winds diminishing
below gale force this afternoon. Thereafter, strong winds will
prevail ahead of the front into Sun morning, when the front will
reach from near 31N55W to near the Windward Passage.
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 extends from 09N13W to 08N16W. The ITCZ
extends from 08N16W to 07N30W to 06N50W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 04N to 10N along the ITCZ.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
A stationary front extends from the Yucatan Channel to the Bay of
Campeche. A reinforcing front reaches from near Bonita Shores,
Florida to near 27N93W. Moderate to locally fresh winds, and
moderate seas, prevail across the basin.
For the forecast, moderate to locally fresh winds will prevail
today as high pressure builds southward toward the region. As
pressure lowers over the southern Gulf, the pressure gradient will
increase over the northern basin starting tonight, leading to
increasing winds. By Sun night and continuing through early next
week, near gale-force winds are likely across portions of the far
northern Gulf.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
Moderate to fresh winds and 5-7 ft seas prevail over the waters
east of 70W. Light to gentle winds, and slight to moderate seas,
are noted elsewhere, except for moderate winds over the NW part of
the basin. Scattered moderate convection is depicted across the
Windward Passage in association to a pre- frontal trough. The
eastern end of the Eastern Pacific Monsoon Trough is supporting
numerous moderate convection south of 12.5N between 74W and 80W.
For the forecast, fresh to locally strong trades over the eastern
Caribbean today will transition to the south-central basin Sun,
then increase in speed starting Mon. Moderate to fresh northeast
to east winds will prevail behind a surface trough over the
northwestern Caribbean into Mon.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
Please see the Special Features section for information on gale
conditions east of a cold front.
A cold front extends from Bermuda to central Cuba. Numerous
thunderstorms are within 210 nm east of the front. Gale force SW
winds are N of 29N ahead of the front, W of 60W. Aside from the
gale force winds, strong to near- gale force winds and rough seas
are noted N of 24N E of the front to 55W. A secondary front extends
from 31N72W to Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Fresh to strong winds
and moderate to rough seas prevail west of this front. Elsewhere
W of 65W, moderate to fresh winds and moderate seas are noted. The
remainder of the waters N of 10N are dominated by high pressure,
anchored by a 1026 mb high centered near 31N29W. Light to gentle
winds and moderate seas are found N of 25N and E of 43W. Moderate
to fresh winds and moderate seas prevail elsewhere.
For the forecast west of 55W, The gales will prevail through
early afternoon before diminishing, but strong NW winds will
develop to the west, behind the secondary front. The two
aforementioned fronts will combine and reach from from 31N55W to
the Windward Passage Sun. The combined boundary will weaken and
move east of the area early next week. High pressure building
southward toward the region will lead to increasing NE to E winds
S of 27N and W of 65W Mon, and these strong winds will expand
north and eastward through the middle of next week.

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
