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

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
1700 UTC.
...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Western Atlantic Gale Warning: A 996 mb low pressure is centered
near 30N47W, moving NE at 10-15 kt. A warm front extends from the
low to 25N31W. Recent satellite scatterometer data showed gale
force SW winds occurring in the SE quadrant of the low, where buoy
and altimeter data indicated seas of 10 to 16 ft in mixed swell.
Across the remainder quadrants of the low, a broad zone of strong
to near-gale force winds cover a region from 20N to 31N between
34W and 60W. Buoy and altimeter data suggest that seas in this
area are 8 to 13 ft in mixed NE and SW swell. Scattered to
numerous moderate to strong convection is occurring mostly to east
of this deep-layered low pressure system, from 25N to 31N between
39W and 45W. The low will continue to move east-northeastward and
accelerate, moving east of 35W by Tue night. The broad zone of
strong to gale force SW winds occurring with the low will shift in
sync with the low through Tue, generating very rough to high seas
to around 20 ft before exiting the forecast area.
Please read the latest High Seas Forecast issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website:
https://nhc.noaa.gov/text/HSFAT2.html
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic waters near 11N15W to
08N20W. The ITCZ extends from that point to 06N57W. Scattered
moderate convection is noted along the ITCZ.
GULF OF AMERICA...
A surface trough extends along coastal Deep South Texas to the NE
Mexico offshore waters, and is generating scattered showers in
that area. Moderate to fresh ESE winds and moderate seas in the 4
to 6 ft range are W of 90W while light to gentle winds and slight
seas are elsewhere E of 90W.
For the forecast, high pressure across the area supports gentle
to moderate winds except locally fresh in the NW Gulf. Slight seas
dominate the NE half of the basin with moderate seas elsewhere.
Winds will diminish to light to gentle across the basin by
midweek. The next cold front will move into the NW Gulf on Thu and
rapidly shift across the Gulf basin, moving SE of the area Fri.
The front will be followed by fresh to locally strong winds and
building seas.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
Due to the gale-force low northeast of the Caribbean, the pressure
gradient across forecast waters remains weak, promoting only
gentle to moderate trade winds across much of the basin and seas
of 2-4 ft. Recent scatterometer data indicates moderate to fresh
trades offshore NW Colombia. A surface trough in the SW Caribbean
is generating scattered moderate convection over the waters
offshore Honduras.
For the forecast, a weak pressure gradient across the basin will
result in moderate or weaker trade winds, except moderate to fresh
in the central portion, along with slight to moderate seas,
through today. Winds will strengthen to fresh to strong over the
central Caribbean by Tue and then prevail through the week, with
mainly moderate to locally fresh winds elsewhere, except weaker
near Central America. Expect rough seas with the fresh to strong
winds. Winds will weaken over the western portion of the basin
toward the end of the week as a cold front approaches from the NW.
The front may enter the NW Caribbean Fri, followed by moderate to
fresh winds and building seas.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
Please see the Special Features section for information on a Gale
Warning.
A cold front extends from SE of Bermuda to the NW Bahamas where
it transitions to a surface trough to the Florida Straits. West of
62W, winds are gentle to moderate and seas are moderate. A cold
front has moved E of the Canary Islands, with moderate to fresh NW
winds and seas of 8-10 ft behind the front to 30W and N of 20N.
Gentle to moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas prevail
across much of the remaining Atlantic.
For the forecast west of 55W, fresh to locally strong winds and
rough to very rough seas cover the waters north of 20N and east of
61W on the periphery of a gale low centered east of the area.
These winds and seas will decrease from west to east through the
early part of the week as the low shifts further from the forecast
waters. Elsewhere, a cold front extends from 31N60W through a
1015 mb low at 28N70W to the NW Bahamas then a trough continues to
the Florida Keys. The front and low will move eastward over the
waters north of 25N through midweek. Another, stronger, cold front
will enter the NW waters toward the end of the week, ushering in
fresh to strong winds and building seas on both sides of it.

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

.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
