    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1815 UTC Fri Jun 26 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 1200 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    1700 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    Caribbean Gale Warning:
    A tight pressure gradient between an Atlantic Ridge and the
    Colombian Low will cause trade winds off Colombia and over the
    Gulf of Venezuela to peak at minimal gale-force tonight through
    early Sat morning, and Sat night through Sun morning again. Seas
    under these winds are expected to peak between 12 to 15 ft north
    of Colombia. Please refer to High Seas and Offshore Waters
    Forecasts issued by the National Hurricane Center at websites:
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml and
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/marine/offshores.php for more
    information.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    An eastern Atlantic tropical wave has its axis from 01N30W to
    10N26W. The wave is moving westward at around 10 to 15 kt.
    Scattered moderate convection is seen from 03N to 09N between 25W
    and 35W.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave has its axis from 04N51W to
    17N44W. The wave is moving westward at around 10 to 15 kt.
    Scattered moderate convection is seen from 03N to 14N between 43W
    and 53W.

    A tropical wave is located along 78W from 10N southward, moving
    westward at around 20 kt. The wave appears to be enhancing strong
    convection over Panama and Colombia as well as the adjacent
    waters.

    The wave in the western Caribbean that was previously mentioned
    in this discussion has since crossed over into the Eastern
    Pacific. Please refer to the Eastern Pacific Tropical Weather
    Discussion for information on that wave.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Mauritania near 19N16W and continues to 07N26W. The ITCZ extends
    from 05N29W to 03N46W. Please read the Tropical Waves section for
    details on convection.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    Showers and isolated thunderstorms are noted in the Bay of
    Campeche as well as along the coast of FL from the Keys to the FL
    Panhandle, while generally dry conditions prevail in the rest of
    the Gulf waters. Moderate to locally fresh SE-S winds are found in
    the Gulf W of 90W, as well as the Florida Straits. Seas in these
    waters are 3-4 ft. Elsewhere, light to gentle winds and slight
    seas are prevalent.

    For the forecast, a ridge will persist over the Gulf region
    through the forecast period. Gentle to moderate anticyclonic winds
    will generally prevail across the basin during this time, except
    for fresh to locally strong NE to E winds pulsing off the
    northwestern Yucatan Peninsula nightly, and moderate to locally
    fresh SE to S winds across the far northwestern Gulf through the
    weekend. Looking ahead, a weak frontal boundary will sink
    southward into the northeast Gulf Mon night and Tue.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Please read the Special Features section about an upcoming Gale
    Warning off Colombia.

    A tight pressure gradient between the subtropical ridge in the
    Atlantic and lower pressures in the deep tropics results in fresh
    to near gale-force easterly trade winds and rough seas in the
    central Caribbean. Moderate to fresh easterly breezes and moderate
    seas are present in the eastern Caribbean and Gulf of Honduras.
    Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and slight seas prevail.

    For the forecast, a ridge north of the islands combined with the
    Colombian Low will support fresh to strong easterly trade winds
    and rough to locally very rough seas in the central Caribbean
    through the forecast period. Winds will pulse to gale-force
    offshore of Colombia, and in the Gulf of Venezuela during the
    nighttime and early morning hours tonight and again Sat.
    Elsewhere, pulsing fresh to strong winds and moderate to locally
    rough seas are expected in the Gulf of Honduras nightly through
    Sat night. Moderate or lighter winds and slight to moderate seas
    are forecast across the remainder of the basin.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    An upper-level shortwave north of the Leeward Islands is
    enhancing scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms north of
    24N between 56W and 62W. Elsewhere, a broad Atlantic ridge
    anchored by a 1030 mb high pressure system near 34N49W supports
    moderate to fresh easterly winds and moderate seas across much of
    the tropical Atlantic.

    For the forecast west of 55W, a broad subtropical ridge will
    persist across the forecast area through the weekend. Fresh to
    strong easterly winds, with locally rough seas are expected
    offshore Hispaniola, including approaches to the Windward Passage,
    each late afternoon and night through Sat night. A nearly north-
    to-south aligned surface trough across the central Atlantic will
    shift westward across the region through Sun, reaching near 70W by
    Sun morning. This will weaken the ridge and lead to diminishing
    winds. Looking ahead, a weak cold front will sink southward into
    the waters off northeastern Florida Mon night.

    Marine Weather Discussion

    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.

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
