    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1815 UTC Thu Sep 24 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
    1800 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    Tropical Storm Fay is centered near 29.8N 41.2W at 24/1500 UTC
    or 860 nm WSW of the Azores, moving W at 5 kt. Estimated minimum
    central pressure is 1005 mb. Maximum sustained wind speed is 45
    kt with gusts to 55 kt. Peak seas to 12 ft are occurring within
    75 nm across the NW semicircle. Scattered moderate isolated strong
    convection is noted within 130 nm over the NE and NW and 70 nm SW
    quadrants. Some additional strengthening is possible
    through tonight. A gradual weakening trend is expected to
    commence on Friday. A generally westward motion with some
    decrease in forward speed is expected over the next few days.

    Please read the latest HIGH SEAS FORECAST issued by the National
    Hurricane Center at website -
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml and the latest Fay
    NHC Forecast/Advisory and Public Advisory at www.hurricanes.gov
    for more details.

    Far Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL90):
    An elongated area of low pressure located a few hundred miles
    south-southeast of the Cabo Verde Islands is producing a large
    area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. This system could
    become a short-lived tropical depression or tropical storm later
    today or on Friday while it moves northwestward to northward.
    Increasing upper-level winds, however, should prevent further
    development over the weekend. Interests in the Cabo Verde Islands
    should monitor the progress of this system as gusty winds, areas
    of heavy rain, and flash flooding are possible over the islands by
    Friday. Heavy rain and flash flooding could also occur well to the
    east along the coast of western Africa, particularly in western
    portions of Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, and southwest
    portions of Mauritania. This system has a high chance of
    formation in the next 48 hours.

    Heavy Rainfall in Central America: A mid to upper-level trough
    currently extends from the eastern Gulf of America across the
    Yucatan Peninsula and NW Caribbean, while relatively warm sea
    surface temperatures and abundant low level moisture are present.
    An elongated low level trough will prevail across this area during
    the next several days, and aid in funneling enhanced tropical
    moisture across Central America and the western Caribbean,
    supporting periods of heavy rainfall through Sat the 26th. There
    is still some uncertainty regarding the exact location of heaviest
    rainfall, but for now heavy rainfall looks likely across extreme
    southeastern Mexico near Chiapas, southern and central Guatemala,
    western Honduras, El Salvador, southern and eastern Belize, as
    well as across portions of Costa Rica and Panama. Currently,
    numerous showers and isolated thunderstorms extends from the Gulf
    of Honduras, north- northeastward across the Cayman Islands and
    into the southern coastal waters of Cuba, and across Andros Island
    and the remainder of the NW Bahamas W of 73W. Heavy rainfall
    across these regions will create the possibility of life-
    threatening flash flooding and landslides. Please refer to local
    weather services as well as the International Desk at the Weather
    Prediction Center for more information.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    See Special Features section above for information on a tropical
    wave in the far eastern Atlantic along 20N that has potential for
    tropical formation.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave is analyzed along 46W, S of 14.5W,
    moving west at around 10 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
    noted from 10N to 13N between the wave axis and 51W.

    An eastern Caribbean tropical wave is along 66W, south of 14N
    into southern Venezuela, moving westward at 10 to 15 kt. No
    significant convection is depicted over waters in association
    with this wave.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough enters the E Atlantic near 16N17W and extends
    southward to 1007 low pressure near 12.3N21.1W then continues
    westward to 10.5N49W. The ITCZ extends from 10.5N49W and continues
    to to near 10N59.5W. Scattered showers prevail from 04.5N to 09N
    between 27.5W and 36W. Scattered moderate convection is depicted
    from 09N to 13N west of 59W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A frontal boundary extends from south Florida to NE Texas.
    Moderate to locally fresh NE winds along with seas 2 to 4 ft
    prevail in the wake of the front. Elsewhere, weak high pressure
    prevails ahead of the front supporting light to gentle NE to E
    winds along with seas 1 to 3 ft.

    For the forecast, the aforementioned front is forecast to
    progress across the E Gulf tonight and Fri, then stall over the SE
    Gulf this weekend. Moderate to locally fresh winds will follow
    the front through Fri night. Elsewhere, gentle to moderate winds
    will prevail through Sat night. Winds will diminish slightly Sun
    into early next week.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Please see Special Features section above for information on
    upper-level low pressure across the far western Caribbean,
    and expected to produce areas of heavy rainfall over portions of
    Central America into the weekend.

    To the east, an upper level trough extends from the central
    Atlantic southwestward to northern Venezuela. This trough is
    supporting scattered moderate convection south of 13N and east of
    65W.

    At the surface, high pressure across the central Atlantic extends
    a weak ridge north of the area, producing a weak pressure
    gradient across the Caribbean basin. Moderate to fresh trades
    prevail across most of the basin S of 15N and E of 80W. Seas in
    these winds are 4 to 7 ft. Over the eastern Caribbean moderate
    winds prevail along and 3 to 5 ft in the moderate winds.
    Elsewhere, outside of convection, light to gentle winds and
    slight seas prevail.

    For the forecast, the weak pressure gradient will generate
    moderate to fresh trades over the S central Caribbean, and gentle
    to moderate winds elsewhere. An upper-level trough will support
    scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms over the W
    Caribbean for the next couple of days.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    See Special Features section above for information on Tropical
    Storm Fay.

    A deep-layered upper trough extending from the middle Atlantic
    states of the U.S. S-SW across the eastern Gulf of America
    continues to support scattered to numerous showers and
    thunderstorms from the NW Caribbean across the NW and central
    Bahamas and adjacent Atlantic waters. Abundant low-level tropical
    moisture is across much of the Atlantic W of 68W, trapped to the
    south of an approaching front offshore of the SE U.S. and is
    interacting with the upper trough. A surface trough is analyzed
    within this convection across the NW Bahamas through the Straits
    of Florida. A weak frontal boundary extends from 31N75W to South
    Florida. Moderate to fresh winds prevail behind the front, except
    for strong winds offshore NE Florida along with seas to 9 ft.
    Ahead of the front, north of 28N and between 71W and 73W moderate
    S to SW winds prevail.

    Another upper-level low is drifting westward near 25N53W. This
    feature is interacting with a surface trough resulting in an area
    of scattered moderate convection from 21N to 28N between 50W and
    56W. Outside of this convection, a weak pressure gradient
    continues across much of the Atlantic, as high pressure remains
    centered across the far NE Atlantic offshore of Europe. This
    pattern is sustaining gentle to moderate trades S of 20N and
    variable light to gentle winds elsewhere W of 35W. However, swell
    generated from Tropical Storm Fay is producing seas of 6 to 11 ft
    N of 28N between 38W and 45W.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the aforementioned frontal boundary
    will shift eastward, reaching from near Bermuda to the Straits of
    Florida Sat night before starting to weaken. Scattered showers
    and isolated thunderstorms are expected along the frontal
    boundary. Fresh to strong winds and increasing seas will follow
    the front through Fri, before decreasing on Sat.

    900 PM GMT Thu Sep 24 2026
    
    Deep convection continues near and northeast of Fay's center, 
    though the southwestern portion of the circulation is partially 
    exposed.  There has been no significant change to the satellite 
    intensity estimates, so the initial intensity remains 45 kt.  Fay 
    has some chance to intensify overnight before an increase in 
    easterly shear helps mix in very dry air outside the central core. 
    The shear is expected to get fairly strong by the weekend, which 
    should cause Fay to decay into a post-tropical cyclone in a couple 
    of days.  No significant changes were made to the intensity 
    forecast.
    
    Fay's initial motion is unchanged at 270/5 kt.  A ridge over the 
    central Atlantic should steer the storm slowly westward during the 
    next few days.  Track guidance is in relatively good agreement, and 
    the new forecast is basically an update of the previous one, near 
    the Google DeepMind and HCCA aids.

    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
    55W AND 64W...
    None.

    .SW N ATLANTIC INCLUDING THE BAHAMAS...
    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
