{"msg": "329\nAXNT20 KNHC 090952\nTWDAT \nTropical Weather Discussion\nNWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL\n1215 UTC Mon Nov 9 2026\nTropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America\nGulf of America, Caribbean Sea, northern sections of South\nAmerica, and Atlantic Ocean to the African coast from the\nEquator to 31N. The following information is based on satellite\nimagery, weather observations, radar and meteorological analysis.\nBased on 0600 UTC surface analysis and satellite imagery through \n0930 UTC.\n...SPECIAL FEATURES...\nWestern Atlantic Gale Warning: A 997 mb low pressure is centered \nnear 30N49W, moving NE at 10-15 kt. A warm front extends from the\nlow to 24N30W. Recent satellite scatterometer data showed gale \nforce SW winds occurring in the SE quadrant of the low, where buoy\nand altimeter data indicated seas of 8 to 16 ft in mixed swell. \nAcross the remainder quadrants of the low, a broad zone of strong \nto near-gale force winds cover a region from 20N to 31N between \n36W and 61W. Buoy and altimeter data suggest that seas in this \narea are 8 to 13 ft in mixed NE and SW swell. Scattered to \nnumerous moderate to strong convection is occurring mostly to east\nof this deep-layered low pressure system, from 25N to 31N between\n40W and 50W. The low will continue to move east-northeastward, \nand accelerate, moving east of 35W by Tue night. The broad zone of\nstrong to gale force SW winds occurring with the low will shift \nin synch with the low through Tue, generating very rough to high \nseas to around 20 ft before exiting the forecast area. \nPlease read the latest High Seas Forecast issued by the National \nHurricane Center at website: \nhttps://nhc.noaa.gov/text/HSFAT2.html\n...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...\nThe monsoon trough enters the Atlantic waters near 10N14W to \n08N20W. The ITCZ extends from that point to 06N55W. Scattered \nmoderate convection is noted along the ITCZ.\nGULF OF AMERICA...\nA former weakening stationary front has dissipated and in its\nplace a remnant trough extends across the Florida Straits. High \npressure is building in the wake of the front, with a weakness \nanalyzed as a surface trough extending along the NE Mexico \noffshore waters, and generating scattered showers in that area. \nModerate to fresh ESE winds and moderate seas in the 4 to 7 ft \nrange are W of 90W while light to gentle winds and slight seas are\nelsewhere E of 90W.\nFor the forecast, high pressure will continue building across the\narea. Fresh NE winds prevail across the western half of the \nbasin, and moderate NE winds are E of 90W. These winds will \ndiminish to light to gentle by midweek. The next cold front will \nmove into the NW Gulf on Thu and rapidly shift across the Gulf \nbasin, moving SE of the area Fri. The front will be followed by \nfresh to strong winds and building seas.  \n...CARIBBEAN SEA...\nDue to the gale-force low northeast of the Caribbean, the pressure\ngradient across forecast waters remains weak, promoting only \ngentle to moderate trade winds across the basin and seas of 2-4 \nft. A surface trough remains offshore NE Honduras, generating  \nscattered heavy showers over the eastern Honduras offshore waters.\n \nFor the forecast, a weak pressure gradient across the basin will\nresult in moderate or weaker trade winds, along with slight to\nmoderate seas, through today. Winds will strengthen over the \ncentral Caribbean by Tuesday and then prevail through the week. A \ncold front may enter the NW Caribbean Fri, followed by moderate to\nfresh winds and building seas.\n...ATLANTIC OCEAN...\nPlease see the Special Features section for information on a Gale\nWarning. \nA cold front extends from Bermuda to the NW Bahamas where it\ntransitions to a surface trough to the Florida Straits. West of\n62W, winds are light to gentle and seas are moderate to 7 ft.\nOtherwise, a cold front is moving across the Canary Islands to\n23N29W where it becomes warm to the low center in the Special\nFeatures. Moderate to fresh NW winds and seas to 11 ft are behind\nthis front to 35W. \nFor the forecast west of 55W, the strong NW winds and rough to \nvery rough seas that cover the waters east of 63W will decrease \nfrom west to east through midweek, as the gale low shifts further\nfrom the forecast waters. The W Atlantic front will move eastward\nover the waters N of 25N through the middle of the week. Another,\nstronger, cold front will enter the NW waters the end of the \nweek, ushering in fresh to strong winds and building seas. \n", "title": "Atlantic Tropical Weather Discussion", "id": "1226006706395512835", "issued": "2026-11-09T12:15:00Z", "wmo": "AXNT20", "source": "NOAA/NWS National Hurricane Center, received via the National Weather Wire Service", "page": "https://hurricane.terrapin.com/text/1226006706395512835"}
