Track The Tropics is the #1 source to track the tropics 24/7! Since 2013 the main goal of the site is to bring all of the important links and graphics to ONE PLACE so you can keep up to date on any threats to land during the Atlantic Hurricane Season! Hurricane Season 2026 in the Atlantic starts on June 1st and ends on November 30th. Do you love Spaghetti Models? Well you've come to the right place!! Remember when you're preparing for a storm: Run from the water; hide from the wind!

Tropical Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1815 UTC Thu Oct 29 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
1700 UTC.
...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...
The monsoon trough reaches the Atlantic through the coast of
Africa near 12N16W and continues to 08N26W. The ITCZ extends from
08N26W to 08.5N39W, where it is broken by a surface trough. The
ITCZ then resumes from 08N43W to 08N60W. Scattered moderate
convection is noted from 05N to 13N between 15W and 36W.
...GULF OF AMERICA...
High pressure over the Tennessee Valley extends a ridge across
the Gulf. The pressure gradient tightens over the eastern half of
the Gulf due to the presence of a stationary front N of the
Bahamas and a trough near the Yucatan Peninsula. This is
resulting in moderate to fresh NE winds E of 93W along with
moderate to locally rough seas. Moderate or weaker winds prevail W
of 93W.
For the forecast, a tight pressure gradient between a high
pressure system over the Tennessee Valley and troughs over the
southern Gulf will continue to support moderate to fresh NE to E
winds and moderate seas in the E Gulf into Mon. Looking ahead,
expect fresh SE to S winds over much of the eastern Gulf through
late Mon between high pressure over the western Atlantic and a
cold front moving through the Southern Plains.
...CARIBBEAN SEA...
The passage of a stationary front over the SW N Atlantic waters is
supporting a weak gradient over the Caribbean waters W of 76W,
thus leading to light to gentle winds and slight seas. Moderate to
fresh trades and moderate seas are elsewhere. A surface trough
extending from the Windward Passage into the central Caribbean is
supporting scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms N of 15N
between 70W and 76W.
For the forecast, moderate to locally fresh trade winds will
continue south of 15N through the eastern, central and portions of
the SW Caribbean through Sun night. Light to gentle breezes are
forecast elsewhere into early next week.
...ATLANTIC OCEAN...
A tight pressure gradient between a high pressure system over the
NW Atlantic and a stationary front extending across the offshore
zones N of 27N to a 1012 mb low N of the Bahamas. Fresh to strong
NE winds and rough seas prevail N of the front and W of 60W.
Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms are occurring along
and N of the front between 50W and 75W, as well as along a pre-
frontal trough analyzed along 70-71W. The aforementioned
stationary front connects to a cold front near 29N35W and extends
NE to 31N30W. Scattered showers and tstms are N of 25N and ahead
of the front to 23W. Moderate to fresh winds are E of 60W and
behind the front with seas of 6-8 ft. Otherwise, moderate or
weaker winds and moderate seas are elsewhere.
For the forecast west of 55W, A stationary front extends east to
west along roughly 29N to a 1012 mb low pressure area centered
near the northern Bahamas, then southwestward to the Florida
Straits. Scattered to numerous tstms are active along a trough
near 70W north of 22N. Fresh to strong NE to E winds and rough
seas will persist north of the front into next week as the low
pressure moves northeastward to past Bermuda and the newly
reinforced front moves to the southeast then stalls along 24N.

Marine Weather Discussion
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1122 AM EDT Mon May 17 2021
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

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
