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 1800 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
2230 UTC.
...TROPICAL WAVES...
An eastern Atlantic tropical wave is analyzed along 31W, south of
21N, moving westward near 10 kt. A 1009 mb low pressure is
analyzed near the wave axis at 17.5N31W. Recent satellite
scatterometer data showed fresh to strong winds to 25 kt within
300 nm of center across the NE and SE semicircles, where seas are
7 to 11 ft. Numerous moderate scattered strong convection is
present from 11N to 23N and between 23W and 35W. Environmental
conditions appear, at best, marginally conducive for any
development of this system during the next day or two before
upper-level winds become too strong for any further development.
Regardless, heavy rainfall is expected over the couple of days for
portions of the Cabo Verde Islands as the system moves slowly
northward to northwestward. There is a low chance for tropical
cyclone development in the next 48 hours, and through next 7 days.
A central Atlantic tropical wave is analyzed 43W-44W, S of 19N, moving
westward near 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate isolated strong convection
is observed from 10N to 14N and between 39W and 46W.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of Guinea
near 10N14W, and then to 07N20W, then to a 1009 mb low near
17.5N31W, then to 13N41W to 07.5N50W. Aside from the convection
described above in the Tropical Waves section, scattered moderate
convection is occurring from 08N to 12N between 35N and 39W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
A stationary front extends across S Florida from the central
Everglades to 23N90W to the S Texas coastal waters. A few
showers and isolated thunderstorms are noted near the frontal
boundary W of 86W. Showers and isolated thunderstorms are also
evident in the western Bay of Campeche near a surface trough.
Otherwise, 1021 mb high pressure is centered over SE Mississippi,
and extends a broad ridge across the basin, which supports
gentle to moderate anticyclonic winds and seas of 2-5 ft across
the Gulf, highest offshore of TX.
For the forecast, the stationary front will dissipate through
Wed. High pressure building in the wake of the front over the
north-central Gulf will support E to SE winds and moderate seas
from the Florida Straits to the Texas coast, and gentle breezes
and slight seas elsewhere. Looking ahead, a cold front will enter
the northwest Gulf Fri night, and reach from southwest Florida to
the far southwest Gulf by Sat night. Strong to near-gale force
winds and rough seas will follow the front, with strong gales
possible off the coast of Mexico between Tampico and Coatzacoalcos
Fri night through Sat night.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
A vigorous upper-level low over the central Caribbean along 72W
has created a trough at the surface near 72W, and are supporting
scattered moderate isolated strong convection across the basin S
of 17N between 67W and 75W. In the SW Caribbean, the East Pacific
monsoon trough supports numerous moderate to strong convection S
of 10N and W of 77W and across Central America. A tighter
pressure gradient due to a strong subtropical ridge over the NW
Atlantic and lower pressures in northern South America is forcing
fresh to strong E winds and seas of 7-8 ft across the central
Caribbean. Moderate to fresh trades and moderate seas are evident
in the rest of the central and eastern Caribbean, along with the
Windward Passage and lee of Cuba. Elsewhere to the E, moderate or
weaker winds and 3-6 ft seas prevail.
For the forecast, scattered showers and thunderstorms will be
active across the central Caribbean through tonight, associated
with an upper level low. Fresh to strong winds across the central
south- Caribbean will diminish through tonight as high pressure
north of the region shifts eastward. Moderate to fresh E to SE
winds and moderate seas will persist through mid week across the
Caribbean, then increase again later in the week as high pressure
builds north of the area.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A cold front is stalling across the western Atlantic, and extends
from 31N73W to the SE Florida coast near Ft Lauderdale, and is
becoming nearly stationary. A few showers and isolated
thunderstorms are noted in a band about 210 nm SE of the
boundary. Moderate NW to W winds and seas of 3-6 ft are seen
behind the front Farther east, a stationary front enters the
tropical Atlantic near 31N35W and continues southwestward to
24.5N56W and then to 27N67W. Scattered showers and isolated
thunderstorms are present along the front between 56W and 67W.
Fresh NE winds are within 120-180 nm north of the front and
increase to strong speeds E of 43. Seas are 7-11 ft in NW to N
swell N of the front and E of 60W.
Elsewhere, the pressure gradient between these fronts, the deep
tropics and high pressure in the central Atlantic sustain
moderate to fresh trades winds and moderate seas across much of
the SW North Atlantic S of 23N, away from any aforementioned
features or tropical waves. Moderate or weaker winds and 3-6 ft
seas prevail across the remainder of the Atlantic.
For the forecast west of 55W, the northern portion of the cold front
across the area waters will continue to drift eastward tonight,
stall from Bermuda to Miami on Tue, then dissipate through Wed. A
second reinforcing front will move southward into the waters east
of 75W Tue into Wed, then stall and dissipate along 29N through
Thu. Looking ahead, a stronger cold front will move into the
waters off northeast Florida by late Fri night into early Sat
morning, and reach from Bermuda to South Florida by late Sat.
Strong to near- gale force NE winds and rough seas will follow
the front.

800 PM EDT Mon Oct 12 2026
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Eastern Tropical Atlantic:
An elongated area of low pressure centered several hundred miles
west of the Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce a large, but
disorganized area of showers and thunderstorms on its east side,
extending toward the westernmost Cabo Verde Islands. Environmental
conditions appear, at best, only marginally conducive for
development of this system before upper-level winds become too
strong for any further development on Tuesday. Regardless, heavy
rainfall is expected to continue for the next day or two across
western portions of the Cabo Verde Islands, and some flooding is
possible there as the system moves slowly northward to
north-northwestward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

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.

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.
