    Tropical Weather Discussion
    NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
    1215 UTC Sun Jun 28 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 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through
    0800 UTC.

    ...SPECIAL FEATURES...

    Caribbean Gale Warning: A tight pressure gradient between the
    Bermuda-Azores High in the central Atlantic and the Colombian Low
    will support strong to gale-force NE-E winds and rough to locally
    very rough seas in the south-central Caribbean for the remainder
    of tonight. An OSCAT scatterometer pass at 0528 UTC reported ENE
    winds of around 35 kt. At 0500 UTC, the Jason-3 altimeter observed
    a large swath of seas 10-12 ft west of the peak wind region. Winds
    will drop below gale this morning, but fresh to strong winds and
    rough seas will persist through at least the upcoming week.

    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 for more information.

    ...TROPICAL WAVES...

    A tropical in the far eastern Atlantic is along 20W, south of
    16N. The wave is moving westward at 10-15 kt. Scattered moderate
    convection is observed from 05N-10N between 18W-25W.

    A central Atlantic tropical wave is along 47W, south of 12N,
    moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
    found from 03N-09N between 43W-53W.

    A tropical wave is over the Lesser Antilles along 60W, south of
    19N, moving westward at 15-20 kt. Scattered moderate convection is
    occurring from 13N-18N between 56W-64W.

    ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...

    The monsoon trough axis enters the Atlantic through the coast of
    Senegal near 13N17W and continues southwestward to 08N27W. The
    ITCZ extends from 08N27W to 06N46W and then from 06N49W and to
    04N52W. Scattered moderate convection is occurring from 13N-18N
    between 56W-64W.

    ...GULF OF AMERICA...

    Winds in the NW Gulf are moderate to fresh SE with seas 3-5 ft.
    Winds in the SW Gulf are also moderate to fresh E with seas 3-5
    ft. Elsewhere, winds over the E Gulf are gentle with seas 1-3 ft,
    Scattered moderate convection is occurring in the SW Gulf south of
    20N west of 95W.

    For the forecast, fresh to locally strong NE to E winds will
    pulse off the NW Yucatan Peninsula nightly through Thu night.
    Moderate to fresh SE to S winds are expected across the NW Gulf
    through Mon. Elsewhere, ridging will support only gentle to
    moderate winds for the next several days.

    ...CARIBBEAN SEA...

    Please read the Special Features section for details regarding the
    on-going gale conditions for offshore Colombia.

    Aside from the expected gale conditions, fresh to strong E winds
    are occurring over the Gulf of Honduras, fresh to strong NE winds
    are observed through the Windward Passage, and fresh winds to the
    lee of central Cuba are noted. Seas over the Gulf of Honduras are
    5-8 ft, over the Windward Passage are 4-7 ft, and in the lee of
    Cuba are 3-4 ft. Elsewhere over the Caribbean, winds are moderate
    or weaker with seas 3-5 ft.

    For the forecast, the Bermuda-Azores High north of the basin
    combined with the Colombian Low will support fresh to strong
    tradewinds over the central Caribbean through the forecast period.
    Winds to gale-force offshore of Colombia will be diminishing
    shortly. Moderate or lighter winds are forecast across the
    remainder of the basin during the next several days.

    ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...

    Ridging along 33N combined with lower pressure over the
    ITCZ/monsoon trough are contributing toward moderate to fresh
    trades with seas 4-7 ft. Some NE strong winds are also occurring
    between the Canary Islands and just offshore of S Western Sahara.
    A prominent tropical upper-tropospheric trough extends from
    30N50W to 22N85W with scattered moderate convection occurring
    along the trough axis from 25N-28N between 57W-63W.

    For the forecast west of 55W, an expansive Bermuda-Azores High
    will dominate the forecast area through Mon. While most of the
    basin will experience moderate or weaker winds, trades just north
    of Hispaniola will freshen afternoons and early evenings for the
    next several days. On Mon, a weak cold front should push off of
    the SE United States coast and extend from 31N73W to the central
    Florida peninsula by Tue morning. While the cold front is
    anticipated to dissipate on Wed, a broad low pressure area is
    expected to form in its wake. Gradual development of this system
    will be possible thereafter, while it moves slowly westward over
    our NW waters north of 28N.

    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.

    .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. 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
