    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Sat Sep 12 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 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    0925 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    The axis of a tropical wave is near 38W, south of 25N, moving
    westward at 15 to 20 kt. The portions of the wave N of 18N is
    shifting northwestward, forced by middle level southeasterly flow
    behind it. Scattered moderate convection is from 21N to 25N near
    this portion of the wave. Scattered moderate convection is also
    about the southern portion of the wave, from 07N to 12N between
    34W and 44W.

    The tropical wave previously analyzed around 86W has moved into
    the eastern Pacific, please read the Tropical Weather Discussion
    (TWDEP) for more details.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Senegal near 14N17W, and continues to 10N22W to 14N33W to 10N43W.
    The ITCZ extends from 10N45W to the coast of Venezuela near
    10N61W. Numerous moderate to scattered strong convection is noted
    from 08N to 12N between 46W and 62W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    High pressure over northern Florida and lower pressures over
    Mexico support moderate to locally fresh southerly winds and
    moderate seas west of 94W and north of 23N. Moderate easterly
    winds and seas of 2-4 ft are occurring in the Bay of Campeche.
    ELsewhere, light to gentle winds and slight seas prevail. A few
    showers and isolated thunderstorms are occurring in the eastern
    Gulf waters.

    For the forecast, high pressure will prevail over the NE Gulf waters
    during the weekend. Winds will pulse to fresh speeds each night
    off the W Yucatan peninsula due to a diurnal trough moving toward
    the SW Gulf. By Tue night, a building ridge over the eastern
    United States and a frontal trough will combine to increase winds
    to fresh to locally strong speeds and build seas over the Gulf
    waters N of 23N into late next week. Conditions will improve late
    next week.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Weak high pressure is centered N of the basin, between the
    Bahamas and Bermuda. The pressure gradient between the associated
    ridge and the Colombian low supports fresh to near gale-force
    easterly trade winds and rough seas over much of the central
    Caribbean S of 18N. A buoy near 14N76W is showing seas to 10 ft.
    Moderate to fresh easterly winds and moderate seas are found in
    the eastern Caribbean, while moderate winds and seas are prevalent
    elsewhere.

    An upper-level trough over the NW Caribbean is producing scattered
    showers and isolated thunderstorms. Fair weather prevails across
    the area E of 78W.

    For the forecast, a tight pressure gradient between a subtropical
    ridge north of the islands and lower pressures associated with
    the Colombian Low will continue to support strong to locally
    near-gale easterly trade winds and rough to locally very rough
    seas over the central Caribbean for the next several days. Gusts
    to gale force may occur tonight off Colombia. Meanwhile, moderate
    to fresh easterly breezes are expected over the next few days in
    the eastern Caribbean. Winds will pulse to strong speeds in the
    Gulf of Honduras this evening through Mon morning. Elsewhere,
    moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas will prevail.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    An upper-level trough in the SW N Atlantic is producing scattered
    showers and isolated thunderstorms over a good portion of the
    basin, especially between Bermuda and the Bahamas. At the surface,
    a weak high pressure dominates forcing moderate or weaker winds
    and slight to moderate seas west of 55W.

    A broad high pressure centered off Portugal supports moderate to
    locally fresh easterly winds between the Lesser Antilles and 35W.
    Moderate to fresh NE winds and moderate seas are noted east of
    35W. Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and moderate seas
    prevail.

    For the forecast west of 55W, scattered moderate to isolated
    strong convection is noted between Bermuda and the Bahamas
    associated with an upper- level trough. At the surface, the
    subtropical ridge will dominate the SW N Atlantic waters over the
    next several days. Trades north of Hispaniola into the Windward
    Passage will be fresh to locally strong through early next week.
    Looking ahead, a building ridge over the eastern United States and
    a frontal trough will combine to increase winds to fresh to
    locally strong speeds and build seas to rough north of the Bahamas
    and W of 70W starting Tue and continuing into Thu. Elsewhere,
    moderate or weaker winds and slight to moderate seas will prevail.

    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
