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
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
0615 UTC Mon Jul 13 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 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0425 UTC.
...TROPICAL WAVES...
A central Caribbean tropical wave is along 77W, south of 19N,
moving westward at 15-20 kt. Numerous scattered to isolated strong
convection is occurring over NW Colombia and Panama along the
southern portion of the wave.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Mauritania
near 19N16W and continues southwestward to 09N35W. The ITCZ
extends from 09N35W to the coast of Guyana near 08N60W. A few
showers are found from 07N to 14N and east of 31W. Similar
convection is present from 06N to 14N and between 49W and the
Lesser Antilles.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
Divergence aloft supports a few showers over the north-central and
NE Gulf waters and while similar convection is noted off Veracruz.
A 1022 mb high pressure over the eastern Gulf sustains mainly
fresh easterly winds south of 24N and between 87W and 95W. This
was confirmed by a recent scatterometer satellite pass. Seas in
these waters are 3-5 ft. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and
slight to moderate seas prevail.
For the forecast, a stationary front will reside just N of the area
through midweek, enhancing thunderstorms across the northern
Gulf waters. Mariners can expect gusty winds, frequent lightning,
and locally higher seas near the stronger thunderstorms. Fresh to
strong easterly winds will pulse offshore the Yucatan Peninsula
each night. Elsewhere, high pressure will dominate, supporting
gentle to moderate SE winds.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
A broad subtropical ridge centered north of the Caribbean forces
strong to near gale-force easterly trade winds across the central
Caribbean. A recent scatterometer satellite pass captured winds up
to 32 kt off NW Colombia. Seas of 7-10 ft are occurring in the
central Caribbean. Fresh to strong NE-E winds and seas of 5-8 ft
are noted in the Windward Passage and the Gulf of Honduras.
Moderate to locally fresh NE-E winds and moderate seas are evident
in the eastern Caribbean and the lee of Cuba. Elsewhere, moderate
or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas are prevalent.
For the forecast, the pressure gradient between high pressure north of
the basin and lower pressures over northern South America will continue
to support strong to near-gale force trade winds across the central
Caribbean into mid-week. East winds will pulse strong each
evening in the Gulf of Honduras and Windward Passage.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
An extensive subtropical ridge dominates the tropical Atlantic,
supporting fresh to locally strong easterly trade winds south of
the SE Bahamas and between 71W and 75W. Moderate easterly winds
and moderate seas are occurring south of 22N and west of 40W.
Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas prevail.
For the forecast west of 55W, the subtropical ridge will remain
dominant through the forecast period, supporting moderate to fresh
trades south of 23N, with gentle winds to the north. Pulsing
strong winds are expected each night offshore Hispaniola and in
the Windward Passage.

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
