    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1815 UTC Sat Jun 27 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...

    Caribbean Gale Warning: At 1341 UTC, a scatterometer pass
    indicated strong to near-gale-force winds occurring in the
    south-central Caribbean offshore northern Colombia. Frequent gusts
    to gale-force can be anticipated at times this afternoon. A tight
    pressure gradient between Atlantic high pressure and relatively
    low pressure over Colombia will lead to the trade winds offshore
    of Colombia and in the Gulf of Venezuela peaking at gale-force
    again tonight into Sun morning. These winds are forecast to
    produce seas in the range of 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 is analyzed from 10N35W to
    01N40W, and is moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. Scattered moderate
    to isolated strong convection is largely W of the wave, south of
    10N between 37W and 47W.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave is analyzed from 20N50W to 07N58W,
    and is moving westward near 15 kt. Scattered moderate convection
    is observed south of 15N between 52W and 62W.

    A western Caribbean tropical wave is near 88W, south of 19N,
    moving westward at 15 to 20 kt. The wave is enhancing shower
    activity in Central America and along the eastern Pacific coast.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    A monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Mauritania near 18N16W and continues southwestward to 09N24W. The
    ITCZ extends from 09N24W to 08N34W and then from 03N40W to
    02N51W. Scattered moderate to isolated strong convection is
    occurring east of 20W between 04N and 14N.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms continue to affect
    the Bay of Campeche as a tropical wave passes by to the south.
    Ridging extending over the eastern Gulf waters supports moderate
    to locally fresh SE-S winds and seas of 3-5 ft west of 90W.
    Elsewhere, moderate or lighter winds and slight seas prevail.

    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 through Wed, and moderate
    to locally fresh SE to S winds across the northwestern Gulf
    through Sun night. Looking ahead, a weak frontal boundary will
    sink southward into the northeast Gulf Mon night into Tue and
    gradually dissipate.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

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

    Outside of the Gale Warning area, the subtropical ridge over the
    central Atlantic is forcing fresh to strong easterly trade winds
    and moderate to rough seas over much of the central Caribbean and
    the Gulf of Honduras, as well as the Windward Passage. Moderate to
    fresh easterly breezes and moderate seas are occurring in the
    eastern Caribbean. Elsewhere, moderate or weaker winds and slight
    to moderate seas prevail.

    For the forecast, a ridge north of the islands combined with the
    Colombian Low will support fresh to strong 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 today and tonight. Elsewhere, pulsing fresh to
    strong winds and moderate to locally rough seas are expected in
    the Gulf of Honduras tonight. Fresh to strong NE winds and
    moderate to locally rough seas will briefly affect the Windward
    Passage late this afternoon into early Sun. Moderate or lighter
    winds and slight to moderate seas are forecast across the
    remainder of the basin.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    A couple of surface troughs located along 65W and 58W are
    producing scattered showers north of 22N and between 55W and 65W.
    Upper level jet dynamics, along with a tropical wave passing to
    the south, are supporting scattered moderate convection from 21N
    to 27N between 45W and 49W. A few showers and isolated
    thunderstorms are also noted in the convergent surface winds off
    SE Florida and the NW Bahamas. The tropical Atlantic is dominated
    by a broad subtropical ridge that supports moderate to fresh
    easterly winds and moderate seas across much of the basin.

    For the forecast west of 55W, a persistent subtropical ridge will
    dominate the forecast area through the weekend. Fresh to strong
    easterly winds, with locally rough seas are expected offshore
    Hispaniola expected this afternoon and tonight. A nearly north-to-
    south aligned surface trough located near 65W will shift westward
    across the region through Sun, reaching near 70W by Sun morning
    while dissipating. 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 and
    gradually dissipate.

    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. 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
