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
0955 UTC.
...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Caribbean Gale Warning: The pressure gradient between high pressure
well north of the region and relatively lower pressure in northern
South America will lead to gale force winds off northwest Colombia
through early this morning and then again on tonight along with
rough seas. This gradient will weaken some early this week as a
cold front moves into the western Atlantic allowing for the
pulsing gale conditions to end Mon.
Please read the latest High Seas Forecast issued by the National
Hurricane Center at website -
https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml for more details.
...TROPICAL WAVES...
A tropical wave is in the eastern Atlantic with axis near 18W,
south of 11N, moving westward at about 5-10 kt. Scattered
moderate convection is evident near the trough axis.
A tropical wave is in the central Atlantic with axis near 53W,
south of 10N, moving westward around 10 kt. Scattered moderate
convection is present near the trough axis.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Guinea
near 09N13W and continues southwestward to 04N17W. The ITCZ
extends from 03N19W to 00N30W and to 01S46W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted south of 08N and between 30W and 52W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
Divergence aloft is producing scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms over the Bay of Campeche, western and northern Gulf
waters. Moderate to locally fresh E-SE winds and moderate seas are
occurring north of Yucatan and off SE Texas. Elsewhere, light to
gentle winds and slight seas prevail.
For the forecast, winds will pulse to strong speeds near the
Yucatan Peninsula in the evenings through tonight. A cold front
will move into the northern Gulf waters early Mon morning, and
reach from northern Florida to the Bay of Campeche by late Mon,
followed by moderate to locally strong N to NE winds. Fresh NW
winds are expected off Veracruz Mon night into Tue morning.
Scattered to numerous showers and strong thunderstorms are
possible ahead of the front. Conditions will improve across the
Gulf Tue night into Wed as the front weakens.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
Please read the Special Features for information on an
ongoing gale warning for offshore Colombia.
Aside from the gale warning, the pressure gradient between broad
high pressure north of the basin and lower pressures in the deep
tropics results in fresh to near gale-force easterly trade winds
and locally rough seas in the central Caribbean and Gulf of
Honduras. Elsewhere, moderate to fresh E to SE winds and slight to
moderate seas prevail.
For the forecast, the tight pressure gradient between the 1030 mb high
pressure system over the N Atlantic and lower pressures in the
deep tropics will support fresh to strong easterly trade winds
with rough seas in the south-central Caribbean through late next
week, including the Gulf of Venezuela. During the nighttime hours
through tonight, these winds are expected to reach gale-force off
NW Colombia. Fresh to strong with locally near-gale E winds and
rough seas are also anticipated in the Gulf of Honduras through
Mon night. Moderate to fresh trades are expected across the
remainder of the eastern and central Caribbean.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A broad subtropical ridge dominates the tropical Atlantic,
supporting moderate to fresh easterly trade winds south of 25N and
west of 55W. Seas in these waters are 4-6 ft. Moderate to fresh
NE-E winds and seas of 5-8 are noted south of 25N and east of 55W.
Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and moderate seas are
prevalent.
For the forecast west of 55W, high pressure dominates the much of
the basin, supporting fresh to locally strong winds off northern
Hispaniola through Mon night. Looking ahead, a cold front is
expected to reach the waters off NE Florida late Mon and move
eastward while weakening Tue and Wed. Fresh to locally strong
winds and rough seas will follow the front, diminishing quickly
Wed. Scattered showers and thunderstorms, some possibly strong to
marginally severe, are possible near the front. Building ridge
over the central Atlantic will support moderate to fresh SE-S
winds and moderate to rough seas E of 70W late next 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.

.WARNINGS...Any changes impacting coastal NWS offices will be
coordinated through AWIPS II Collaboration Chat, or by
telephone:
.GULF OF MEXICO...
None.
.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
