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 Fri Oct 30 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
0550 UTC.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic through the coast of
Guinea Bissau near 11N16W and continues to 08N25W. The ITCZ
extends from 08N26W to 07N40W, where it is broken by a surface
trough. The ITCZ then resumes from 07N45W to 08N60W. Scattered
moderate convection is noted from 04N to 12N between 15W and 40W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
High pressure over the Tennessee Valley extends a ridge into the
northern Gulf. The pressure gradient tightens over the eastern
half of the Gulf due to the presence of a frontal boundary
northeast of the Bahamas and a trough over the central Gulf
extending into the northern Yucatan Peninsula. This is resulting
in moderate to fresh NE to E winds east of 91W along with
moderate seas to 6 ft. Moderate or weaker winds prevail west of
91W.
For the forecast, a tight pressure gradient between a high
pressure system over the Carolinas and low pressure over the
Bahamas will continue to support moderate to fresh northeast to
east winds and moderate seas in the northeast and north-central
Gulf into early next week. Looking ahead, expect fresh southeast
to south winds over much of the northwest Gulf by Tue night
between high pressure over the western Atlantic and a cold front
that will be moving through the Southern Plains.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
A frontal boundary over the SW N Atlantic waters is supporting a
weak gradient over the Caribbean waters west of 77W, thus leading
to light to gentle winds and slight seas. Moderate to fresh
trades and moderate seas are elsewhere due to the Azores High,
which extends to 65W, and Puerto Rico NE adjacent waters. Recent
scatterometer data indicate the presence of a surface trough
extending from Jamaica to NW Colombia, which is supporting
scattered showers in the Windward Passage and Jamaica southern
adjacent waters.
For the forecast, moderate to locally fresh trades will continue
south of 15N through the eastern, central and portions of the SW
Caribbean through Sun night, then diminish. Light to gentle
breezes are forecast elsewhere into early next week.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A warm front extends from 28N55W to 31N62W to a 1013 mb low near
30N70W. A cold front extends from the low pressure to the central
Bahamas. Recent scatterometer data show fresh to strong NE winds
in the northern semicircle of the low where scattered heavy
showers continue to shift northeastward to 60W. Scatt data also
show fresh NE winds elsewhere W of 70W N of the cold front and the
Bahamas. Farther east, a cold front extends from 31N26W to 25N35W
to 26N44W where it transitions to a stationary front that
continues to 28N57W where it transitions to a warm front. A
reinforcing cold front extends from 31N30W to 29N41W. Scattered
showers are ahead of the leading front to 18W or Canary Islands
western adjacent waters. Aside from the convection, fresh to
strong NNE winds follow the reinforcing front along with rough
seas to 10 ft. Moderate or weaker winds are elsewhere.
For the forecast west of 55W, fresh to strong northeast to east
winds along with rough seas to around 11 ft will persist north of
the front into next week as the low pressure moves northeastward
past Bermuda, and the reinforced cold front moves southeastward
and stalls near, or along 24N.

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...
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
