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 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
1040 UTC.
...TROPICAL WAVES...
A tropical is just E of the Cape Verde Islands with axis along
21W, moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
from 04N to 08N between 10W and 26W.
A tropical wave in the central Atlantic extends from 02N to 15N
with axis near 37W, moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is observed from 04N to 09N and between 30W
and 44W.
A tropical wave is in the E Caribbean south of 17N into inland
Venezuela, with axis near 68W, moving westward at 15 kt.
Scattered moderate convection is behind the wave axis in the SE
Caribbean.
A tropical wave in the SW Caribbean has its axis near 77W, moving
westward at 15 kt. No convection is noted at this time.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 19N16W and continues
southwestward to 08N25W. The ITCZ extends from 08N25W to 05N52W.
Aside from the convection associated with the tropical waves, scattered
moderate convection is evident from 04N to 09N between 46W and 55W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
The pressure gradient across the area has diminished by this
morning, which has resulted in moderate or weaker ESE winds
across the western half of the Gulf and light to gentle winds
elsewhere. Seas basin-wide are slight.
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 have diminished to
gentle to moderate speeds this morning and are forecast to 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 8-12 ft. The strongest winds
and highest seas are found offshore NW Colombia. Moderate to
fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas are found in the eastern
Caribbean while moderate or lighter winds and slight to moderate
seas prevail elsewhere. Scattered showers are ongoing in both the
Gulf of Honduras and in the SE Caribbean.
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 Sat night, except
offshore Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela where winds are
likely to reach near gale-force speed at night. Otherwise,
moderate to fresh trades will continue in the E basin while
moderate or weaker winds will prevail over the NW Caribbean.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A weak cold front is moving across the NE Florida offshore waters
west of 70W, bringing showers and scattered tstms to the region.
The Azores High extends a broad ridge elsewhere across the
subtropical waters, which is supporting moderate or weaker winds W
of 30N. Two surface troughs intersect the ridge, one is just E of
the Turks and Caicos ahead of the aforementioned front, and a
second trough is near 47W, both causing scattered to isolated
showers. East of 30W, a tighter pressure gradient between the
ridge and lower pressures over NW Africa supports fresh to strong
NE winds and rough seas to 9 ft. In the tropical Atlantic waters,
trades are moderate to fresh, and seas moderate to 7 ft.
For the forecast west of 55W, the cold front will stall from
31N72W to just N of Freeport by this afternoon and then
transition to a surface trough by Wed morning. The trough will
slowly drift WNW and dissipate Thu night offshore NE Florida and
southern Georgia. Showers are forecast to continue to affect the
offshore waters N of the Bahamas and W of 70W through midweek.
Moderate or weaker winds are forecast elsewhere, except for fresh
to locally strong trades offshore Hispaniola and Puerto Rico
mainly late in the afternoon into the early evening hours.

thunderstorm activity. Environmental conditions are becoming less
conducive for significant development of this system as it drifts
southward and then westward later this week.

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
