    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    0615 UTC Fri Nov 13 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
    0330 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    North-Central Atlantic Gale Warning: a strong cold front is moving
    off the northeast Florida coast this morning accompanied by fresh
    to strong winds on either side of it. The front is expected to
    reach from near 31N66W to the southeastern Bahamas by Sat morning,
    and from near 31N55W to 25N65W and stationary to eastern Cuba by
    Sun morning. Fresh to gale-force winds southwest winds will
    precede the front to over the waters north of about 29N. The cold
    front portion will shift east of 55W late Sun night while the
    stationary portion weakens. Please, see the latest NWS High Seas
    Forecast issued by the National Hurricane Center at website
    https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml for further details.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough extends from 13N16W to 09N20W. The ITCZ extends
    from 09N20W to 03N30W to 03N50W. Scattered moderate convection is
    active from 04N to 06N between 20W and 45W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    A strong cold front extends from the Florida Big Bend area to near
    Brownsville, Texas. Building high pressure north of the front is
    already supporting fresh to strong winds and rough seas off
    Veracruz in the far southwest Gulf. Moderate N winds and 2-4 ft
    seas follow the front, with light breezes and 1-3 ft seas
    elsewhere.

    For the forecast, the front will rapidly shift across the
    rest of the basin overnight and exit the area early on Fri. Fresh
    to locally strong northwest to north winds will prevail near
    Tampico and Veracruz through early on Fri. Elsewhere, moderate to
    locally fresh north winds are expected in the wake of the cold
    front. High pressure will build southward into the region this
    weekend, with fresh to strong easterly winds across portions of
    the northern and central Gulf. Another strong cold front is
    expected to push off the Texas coast Mon morning, and quickly move
    across the basin through Tue night. Fresh to strong winds will
    follow the front across much of the basin. Winds to near gale-
    force are possible in the far NE Gulf early next week.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    The pressure gradient between the Bermuda High north of the region
    and a 1007 mb low pressure along the NW coast of Colombia is
    causing fresh to strong trades over the eastern and central
    Caribbean with seas 6-8 ft. Moderate trade winds are found
    elsewhere with 4-6 ft seas, except for light to gentle breezes and
    2-4 ft over the northwest Caribbean. A pair of surface troughs
    are analyzed in the western Caribbean supporting scattered showers
    and thunderstorms mainly over the NW Caribbean waters.

    For the forecast, fresh to strong trades will prevail over the central
    and eastern Caribbean tonight, with gentle to moderate winds
    elsewhere. The pressure gradient will loosen starting Fri,
    weakening the trades. A cold front will enter the NW waters Fri.
    Moderate to fresh northeast to east winds are likely behind this
    front over the northwestern Caribbean Sat through Sun. Trade
    winds may strengthen again over the south central Caribbean early
    next week.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    Scattered showers and thunderstorms are active over the area north
    of 20N and west of 60W ahead of a cold front starting move off the
    northeast Florida coast. Strong SW winds and 6-8 ft seas are
    active between northeast Florida and Bermuda ahead of the front.
    A broad ridge centered by 1023 mb high pressure near 32N42W
    dominates the remainder of the basin. This pattern is supporting
    fresh to strong SW winds elsewhere north of 20N and east of 55W
    with 4-6 ft seas. The pattern is also supporting fresh trade winds
    and 5-7 ft seas over the deep tropics south of 20N and west of
    35W. Gentle to moderate breezes and 4-6 ft are noted elsewhere
    across the basin.

    For the forecast west of 55W, the front is expected to reach from near
    31N66W to the southeastern Bahamas by Sat morning, and from near
    31N55W to 25N65W and stationary to eastern Cuba by Sun morning.
    Fresh to gale-force winds southwest winds will precede the front
    to over the waters north of about 29N. The cold front portion will
    shift east of 55W late Sun night while the stationary portion
    weakens. Winds will briefly diminish below fresh speeds over the
    forecast waters on Sun. A building Bermuda High will tighten the
    pressure gradient and support fresh to strong northeast winds
    south of 27N west of 65W Mon and Mon night. The fresh to strong
    winds will expand northward in coverage Tue and Tue night.

    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.

    .GULF OF MEXICO...

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.

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.
