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 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0400 UTC.
...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Western Atlantic Gale Warning: A cold front extends from an occluded
997 mb low pressure centered near 31N49W to 22N47W, then is a trough
to 18N60W. The low and associated front are moving to the E-NE at
20 kt. Recent scatterometer satellite data shows winds reaching
35 to 45 kt within 120 nm of the center of the low. Concurrent
altimeter satellite data shows rough to very rough seas in this
area as well. Strong to near-gale force winds and rough seas
extend from north of 20N between 30W and 55W. The low pressure and
associated strong to gale force winds will move east of 35W by Tue
afternoon. Associated seas 8 ft or greater will gradually subside
west of 35W through Wed afternoon.
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 extends from 12N16W to 10N20W. The ITCZ extends
from 10N20W to 07N35W to 08N50W. Scattered moderate convection is
from 03N to 09N east of 25W, 03N to 09N between 30W and 40W.
GULF OF AMERICA...
1023 mb high pressure is centered over the lower Mississippi
Valley, with weak 1017 mb low pressure centered northeast Mexico.
This is supporting gentle to moderate NE to E winds across the
basin, with 1-3 ft seas over the eastern Gulf and 2-4 ft seas over
the western Gulf.
For the forecast, broad 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 Wed. The next cold front will move into the NW Gulf Wed night
and rapidly shift across the Gulf basin, moving SE of the area by
Fri. The front will be followed by fresh to locally strong winds
and building seas. High pressure will settle across the basin in
the wake of the front during the weekend with moderate to fresh
return flow.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
1020 mb high pressure is centered north of the area near 29N75W,
supporting fresh to strong winds off northwest Venezuela, with
moderate to fresh winds elsewhere over the central Caribbean.
Gentle to moderate are noted elsewhere. Seas are 4-6 ft over the
central Caribbean and 2-4 ft elsewhere. Scattered showers are
observed between eastern Honduras and Grand Cayman Island.
For the forecast, moderate trades will prevail, except fresh to locally
strong E winds will pulse in the south-central basin. Rough seas
will occur where the winds are highest, otherwise seas will be
mainly moderate. By the end of the week, the pressure gradient
will weaken as a cold front approaches from the northwest, so
trades will lessen. The front may enter the NW Caribbean Fri and
gradually wash out into the weekend, with moderate to fresh winds
and building seas behind it.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
Please see the Special Features section for information on a Gale
Warning and associated conditions near 45W.
In addition to the gale center listed in the Special Features
section, a weak 1015 mb low pressure is centered near 27N68W. A
cold front extends from 31N57W to the low pressure to the central
Bahamas. Outside the area of winds and seas described in the
Special Features near the gale center, gentle to moderate winds
and moderate seas in a mix of swell.
For the forecast west of 55W, broad 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 Wed. The next cold front will move into the NW Gulf Wed
night and rapidly shift across the Gulf basin, moving SE of the
area by Fri. The front will be followed by fresh to locally strong
winds and building seas. High pressure will settle across the
basin in the wake of the front during the weekend with moderate to
fresh return flow.

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
