    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0615 UTC Fri Sep 11 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
    0430 UTC.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    Clusters of moderate to isolated strong convection are moving
    westward over Guinea, Guinea Bissau and Sierra Leone reaching
    the Atlantic waters. Based on model guidance, a new tropical wave
    follows this convective activity.

    The axis of a tropical wave is near 32W, south of 21N, moving
    westward at 10 to 15 kt. No significant convection is noted with
    this wave at this time.

    The axis of a tropical wave is near 71W, south of 20N and extends
    into Venezuela, moving westward at 15 kt. Scattered moderate
    convection is noted along the wave axis over Venezuela.

    The axis of a tropical wave is near 79W, south of 20N, moving
    westward at 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection is noted along
    the wave axis.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Mauritania near 20N16W, and continues southwestward to 14N30W to
    10N39W. The ITCZ extends from 10N39W to the coast of Guyana near
    07N58W. Aside from convection associated with the tropical waves,
    scattered moderate convection is noted from 07N to 12N between
    34W and 57W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A 1013 mb low pressure is located near 29N89W. Scattered showers
    and thunderstorms are noted N of 29N between 85W-89W. Scattered
    showers and thunderstorms are once again over most the Florida
    Peninsula, mainly E of a surface trough that extends along 85W. A
    diffluent pattern aloft is helping to induce this convective
    activity. Showers and thunderstorms are also noted over the
    Yucatan Peninsula and northern Guatemala. Otherwise, a weak
    pressure gradient is over the Gulf waters supporting gentle to
    moderate winds. These winds are generating mainly slight seas
    over the basin, with the exception of slight to moderate seas over
    the central Bay of Campeche.

    For the forecast, NE to E winds will pulse to fresh off the W Yucatan
    peninsula beginning Sat night due to a diurnal trough moving
    toward the SW Gulf each evening. Elsewhere, winds will be gentle
    to moderate for the next several days due to the influence of a
    weak high pressure over the N Gulf.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    High pressure N of the area combined with the Colombian low continues
    to support fresh to strong trade winds and rough seas over much of
    the central Caribbean, particularly S of 16N, and in the Gulf of
    Venezuela. Recent altimeter passes indicate seas of 8 to 10 ft
    within these winds. Fresh to strong winds are also evident across
    the Windward Passage. Moderate to fresh winds, and moderate seas
    cover the remainder of the Caribbean waters. Convection has
    flared-up over most of Cuba, the Cayman Islands, and the NW
    Caribbean. An upper-level low spinning over the NW Caribbean is
    enhancing this convective activity. Showers and thunderstorms are
    also occurring over Hispaniola, and over parts of the SW
    Caribbean, including the Atlantic coast of SE Nicaragua.

    For the forecast, the moderate pressure gradient from ridging
    north of the area to the Colombian Low will continue to force
    fresh to strong with locally near-gale trades over the central
    Caribbean for the next several days. From Sat night through Mon
    night, trades over the Gulf of Honduras will increase to fresh
    with locally strong. Elsewhere winds will be moderate or weaker.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A cold front extends from 31N44W to 27N54W, then becomes
    stationary from that point to 30N76W. Scattered showers and
    thunderstorms are in the vicinity of the front, more concentrated
    from 24N to 29N between 57W and 68W. Gentle to moderate NE to E
    winds are in the wake of the front. The remainder of the forecast
    waters are dominated by high pressure, anchored by a 1023 mb high
    pressure located E of Bermuda near 32N56W, and an 1025 mb high
    pressure centered E of the Azores near 38N24W. The pressure
    gradient between the high pressure and lower pressures over NW
    Africa is promoting moderate to fresh NE winds N of 27N and E of
    25W, including the Canary Islands. Moderate to fresh trade winds
    are observed over most of the tropical Atlantic, and S of 22N
    between 70W and 74W. Moderate or weaker winds prevail elsewhere.
    Seas are in general moderate across the Atlantic forecast waters.

    For the forecast west of 55W, winds north of Hispaniola including
    the approach to the Windward Passage will be fresh through Mon
    night. Elsewhere, the Bermuda-Azores High situated along 30N
    should produce only moderate or weaker winds across the remaining
    forecast waters for the next several days.

    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
