    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0615 UTC Tue Jun 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 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    0325 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A tropical wave has been introduced in the far eastern Atlantic
    along 19W, south of 16N, based on satellite imagery, total
    precipitable water and wave guidance data. The wave is moving
    westward at 15 kt. A few showers are noted near the trough axis.

    An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis along 35W, south
    of 16N, moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate convection
    is observed from 03N to 09N and between 23W and 40W.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave has its axis along 66W, south
    of 16N, moving westward at 15 kt. Scattered moderate to isolated
    strong convection is present south of 15N and between 55W and 66W.

    A central Caribbean tropical wave has its axis along 74W, south
    of 19N, moving westward near 15 kt. No convection is noted at
    this time.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Mauritania near 21N16W and continues southwestward to 09N24W. The
    ITCZ extends from 09N24W to 07N34W and continues from 07N37W to
    05N54W. Scattered moderate convection is evident from 05N to 09N
    and east of 19W. Isolated moderate convection is noted from 04N to
    09N and between 40W and 55W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    The pressure gradient between a high pressure in the NE Gulf and
    lower pressures in Mexico support fresh to locally strong NE-E
    winds and moderate seas south of 23N and between 88W and 94W.
    Gentle to moderate E-SE winds and slight to moderate seas are
    found in the remainder of the western Gulf (west of 90W).
    Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas
    prevail.

    For the forecast, a ridge will continue to dominate the Gulf region.
    Fresh to locally strong NE to E winds will pulse off the NW Yucatan
    Peninsula nightly through Sat night due to local effects associated
    with a surface trough. 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 5-10 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.

    Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are found across the
    Greater Antilles and nearby waters mainly due to diurnal heating.
    Similar convection is present in the SE Caribbean and off NE
    Nicaragua.

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

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    The shower and thunderstorms activity north of the Leeward Islands
    has mostly dissipated. The remainder of the tropical Atlantic is
    dominated by a broad subtropical ridge, supporting moderate to
    locally fresh easterly winds and seas of 5-8 ft south of 22N 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 20N and east of
    24W. A recent scatterometer satellite pass showed winds up to 32
    kt between the water passages in the Canary Islands. Elsewhere,
    moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas are prevalent.

    For the forecast west of 55W, while most of the basin will
    experience moderate or weaker winds, trades just north of
    Hispaniola will freshen in the late afternoons and early evenings
    for the next several days. A weak cold front located off of the SE
    United States coast will extend from 31N72W to the central
    Florida peninsula by Tue morning. The front is anticipated to
    dissipate on Wed while the low pressure area N of the region
    associated with the front appear to have only a marginally
    favorable environment for some tropical development as the system
    drifts southward and then westward later this week. Currently, the
    forecast keeps the low just N of 30N through Wed.

    in association with an area of low pressure along a frontal
    boundary located off the southeastern U.S. coast. Environmental
    conditions appear only 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 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
