    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1815 UTC Mon Aug 3 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
    1645 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is along 35W, south of 20N,
    moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. No significant convection is
    depicted at this time in association with this wave.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 69W, from eastern
    Hispaniola southward, moving westward at around 15 kt. Isolated moderate
    convection is noted from 13N to 15N between 63W and 70W.

    A western Caribbean tropical wave is along 89W, southward from
    the Gulf of Honduras into the Eastern Pacific. More information
    about this wave can be found in the Eastern Pacific Tropical
    Weather Discussion (TWDEP).


    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic near 20N16W and continues
    southwestward to 09N46W. The ITCZ extends from 09N46W to 08N59W.
    Scattered moderate convection is noted from 05N to 11N E of 20W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A stationary front is analyzed along much of the northern Gulf
    coast. Scattered moderate convection is confined to the eastern
    side of the basin W of 25N. High pressure north of the area is
    supporting light and variable winds across most of the basin,
    except for moderate SW winds over the NE Gulf and moderate E
    winds over the Bay of Campeche. Seas 3 to 5 ft prevail over the NE
    Gulf and the Bay of Campeche, elsewhere, 1 to 3 ft seas prevail.

    For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate,
    promoting gentle winds and slight seas this week. Pulses of fresh
    winds will occur of the Yucatan Peninsula each night, locally
    strong Wed night, along with moderate seas. Thunderstorms will
    prevail into mid- week in the northeast basin as a cold front
    settles over the Florida Panhandle and a mid- and upper-level
    trough sets up over the region.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    See Tropical Waves section above for information on convection
    impacting the basin.

    The westward-building subtropical high pressure system positioned
    over the central Atlantic is forcing fresh to strong easterly
    trade winds and rough seas over much of the central Caribbean.
    Moderate to locally fresh easterly winds and moderate seas are
    found in the eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker
    winds and slight to moderate seas prevail.

    For the forecast, the pressure gradient between Atlantic high
    pressure and relatively lower pressure in northern South America
    will continue to support fresh to strong trades over the central
    basin this week, with rough seas there. Fresh to locally strong
    winds will also pulse in the Gulf of Honduras. Fresh winds may
    pulse through the Windward Passage at times. Otherwise, mainly
    moderate or weaker winds ands seas will prevail.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A deep-layer trough extending down the eastern United States
    toward western Cuba is leading aiding in broad ascent, combining
    with abundant tropical moisture to induce scattered moderate to
    isolated strong convection N of Cuba and W of 71W, including
    waters in the vicinity of the Bahamas. Elsewhere, the tropical
    Atlantic is dominated by a 1026 mb high pressure system centered
    near 33N57W, supporting fresh to locally strong southerly winds
    and seas of 4-6 ft north of 30N and west of 77.5W. Another area
    of fresh to strong NE winds is in the vicinity of the Canary
    Islands. Elsewhere, mainly moderate winds and seas prevail across
    much of the tropical Atlantic.

    For the forecast west of 55W, fresh to strong SW winds offshore
    NE Florida will continue into early afternoon before diminishing
    as high pressure builds west toward the region. An upper-level
    trough along the eastern coast of the U.S. will prolong scattered
    thunderstorms offshore Florida and in the vicinity of the Bahamas
    early this week. Elsewhere, locally strong trades will continue to
    pulse each night offshore Hispaniola. A low level trough may
    bring fresh to locally strong winds and locally rough seas from
    east to west across the central waters by mid-week, reaching the
    NW waters by the end of the 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.

    .GULF OF MEXICO...

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
