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 0000 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
0550 UTC.
...SPECIAL FEATURES...
Western Atlantic Gale Warning: A 1003 mb low pressure area is
located near 27N59W, moving east-northeastward near 7 kt. This
non-tropical low pressure area is located 405 nm southeast of
Bermuda, and continues to produce scattered to numerous heavy
showers and thunderstorms over the E semicircle of the low, from
20N to 31N between 35W and 59W. The low is forecast to move
generally east-northeastward over the central subtropical Atlantic
during the next couple of days. Recent satellite scatterometer
data showed a broad band of near-gale to gale force NE to E winds
of 30 to 40 kt occurring in the NE quadrant within 240 nm of the
low center. Recent altimeter and buoy data shows seas of 08 to 17
ft occurring within the area of gales and convection. Gale-force
winds and very rough seas in excess of 12 ft are expected to
continue to the north of this low center as it moves over parts of
the central subtropical Atlantic through Sun.
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 enters the Atlantic near 09N13W and extends SW
to 09N18W. The ITCZ extends from 09N18W to 05N35W to 05N53W.
Scattered moderate convection is occurring from 02N to 11N
between 11W and 50W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
A cold front extends from south Florida to 23N88W where it stalls
to 23N95W to the southern Texas coastal waters. Gentle to moderate
NE to E winds are ongoing E of 90W while moderate to fresh ESE
winds are W of 90W, except for light to gentle winds in the Bay of
Campeche. Seas are 1 to 4 ft basin-wide.
For the forecast, the front will slowly shift southward across
the remainder of the basin into early next week. Moderate to fresh
winds will prevail behind the front. High pressure will build in
the wake of the front, with winds diminishing to gentle to
moderate speeds. The next cold front will move into the NW Gulf
next Thursday, followed by fresh winds and building seas.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
A weak pressure gradient due to the low in the Special Features is
supporting moderate or weaker winds and 3 to 4 ft seas basin-wide.
Otherwise, a line of scattered heavy showers and tstms is moving
across the NE Caribbean associated with the tail of a surface
trough extending NE to the central subtropical Atlantic waters.
Scattered showers prevail offshore E Honduras and NE Nicaragua
due to a lingering surface trough.
For the forecast, a weak pressure gradient across the basin will
result in moderate or weaker trade winds, along with slight to
moderate seas, through early next week. Winds will strengthen over
the central Caribbean by Tuesday.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
Please see the Special Features section for information on a Gale
Warning.
Aside from the low in Special Features, a cold front extends from
31N17W to 25W30W where it stalls to 26N40W and then transitions to
a warm front that continues to 29N52W. Scattered heavy showers are
ahead of the front N of 20N to the NW coast of Africa. Strong to
near gale-force SW winds are ahead of the front where seas are 8
to 12 ft, while fresh to strong NNW winds follow the front E of
35W, where seas are 11 to 15 ft. South of the Special Features
low, winds are fresh to strong to 20N between 45W and 62W, and
seas are rough to 12 ft.
For the forecast west of 55W, the low pres in the Special Features
will continue to move east-northeastward through midweek. An area
of strong to gale-force winds, and rough to very rough seas,
peaking near 17 ft, will prevail north of the low, impacting the
waters mainly north of about 27N and east of 60W through late Sun.
Elsewhere, a weakening cold front over the NW waters will
dissipate Sun.

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

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
