      TZUTC: -0500       MSGID: 169382.weather@1:2320/105 2df30184       PID: Synchronet 3.21a-Linux master/123f2d28a Jul 12 2025 GCC 12.2.0       TID: SBBSecho 3.28-Linux master/123f2d28a Jul 12 2025 GCC 12.2.0       BBSID: CAPCITY2       CHRS: ASCII 1       FORMAT: flowed       382        AXNT20 KNHC 101010       TWDAT               Tropical Weather Discussion       NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       1215 UTC Tue Feb 10 2026              Tropical Weather Discussion for North America, Central America       Gulf of Mexico, 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 0930 UTC.              ...SPECIAL FEATURES...              Central Atlantic Gale Warning and Significant Swell: A 994 mb low       pressure is centered well NE of Bermuda near 38N51W. The gradient       between this low and a 1026 mb high pressure moving E just N of       the NW Bahamas is supporting gale-force WNW winds N of 30N       between 47W and 56W. Fresh to strong W winds extend southward to       28N from 32W and 65W. Gales will end this morning, and the fresh       to strong winds will diminish into tonight, as the low pressure to       the north weakens and moves farther from the area. An extensive       area of very rough seas in NW to N well remains over the waters N       of 18N between 28W and 68W, with peak seas around 24 ft near       30N50W. These seas will only slowly decay from W to E, finally       falling below 12 ft for most areas by Wed night. Mariners are        urged to stay up to date with the latest forecasts.              South-Central Caribbean Gale Warning: High pressure building       southeastward across the western Atlantic and northern Caribbean        will tighten the pressure gradient across the basin. This will       result in strong NE winds over the central and SW Caribbean, with       winds pulsing to gale-force offshore Colombia tonight and again        Wed night. Seas will build to 11 ft in association with these        gales.              Please read the latest High Seas and Offshore Waters Forecasts        issued by the National Hurricane Center at website:       https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/MIAHSFAT2.shtml and       https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/marine/offshores.php        for more details on these events.              ...MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ...              The monsoon trough enters the Atlantic through the coast of        Liberia near 06N10W to 02N29W. The ITCZ continues from 02N30W to        00N42W. Scattered moderate convection extends from 00N to 06N        between 08W and 33W and from 00N to 04N between 37W and 42W.               ...GULF OF MEXICO...              A surface ridge extends across the Gulf, anchored by a 1026 mb        high pressure centered over Georgia. This pattern is maintaining       mainly gentle SE winds, except for some moderate to locally fresh       S winds off NE Mexico and southern Texas. Seas are 1 to 2 ft in       the NE Gulf, 2 to 4 ft elsewhere.              For the forecast, high pressure will generally dominate Gulf        waters through late week, bringing a gentle to moderate mainly        southerly flow. Locally fresh winds are expected today and tonight       just west of the Yucatan Peninsula and over the far western        waters. Slight to moderate seas will prevail. Looking ahead,        southerly winds may increase this weekend ahead of an approaching cold front.              ...CARIBBEAN SEA...               See Special Features section above for information on a Gale       Warning in effect for waters offshore Colombia.              High pressure N of the area is building southeastward toward the        Caribbean, which is increasing NE winds over much of the basin to        fresh to strong speeds. Seas are mainly 5 to 7 ft, although rough       seas are occurring in the SW basin offshore Colombia, S of       Hispaniola, and through Atlantic passages from the Mona Passage eastward.              For the forecast, the pressure gradient between high pressure        over the western Atlantic and the Colombian/Panamanian low will        support fresh to strong winds across most of the central        Caribbean, including the Windward Passage, and the waters between        Cuba and Jamaica into Wed night. Winds will pulse to gale-force        tonight and again Wed night offshore Colombia. Meanwhile, large NW       to N swell will impact the Mona Passage, Anegada Passage, and        tropical N Atlantic waters into Wed creating hazardous marine conditions.              ...ATLANTIC OCEAN...              Please see the Special Features section for details on a gale        warning and significant swell in the central Atlantic.              Hazardous marine conditions dominate much of the central       subtropical basin, as described in the Special Features section,        in association with a large and deep low pressure system moving        northeastward across the northwest Atlantic. A stationary front       extends from 31N39W to the northern Leeward Islands, separating a       pair of 1025 mb high pressure centers, one just N of the NW       Bahamas and the other over the Canary Islands. Winds are moderate       or less, with moderate seas outside of the Special Features area,       except for a belt of moderate to fresh trades that exist south of       a line from the Canary Islands to the Windward Islands.              For the forecast west of 55W, near gale-force winds in the far NE       waters will gradually diminish into tonight as high pressure        moves eastward across the waters. On the west side of the high,        southwesterly winds will increase over the NW waters starting        tonight, then reach strong speeds Wed, with seas building to rough       N of 28N. These winds will prevail over northern waters through        Wed night, before shifting to strong NW as a cold front crosses        the waters into Thu. Very rough seas in NW to N swell E of 67W        will gradually decay below 12 ft from W to E today and tonight,        with improved seas by Wed. Peak seas this morning SE of Bermuda        along 31N will be as high as 18 ft.               $$       Konarik       --- SBBSecho 3.28-Linux        * Origin: Capitol City Online (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 100 16/0 19/10 37 104/119 105/81 106/201 114/10 120/302       SEEN-BY: 123/130 128/187 129/14 142/104 153/757 7715 154/10 30 50       SEEN-BY: 154/110 700 203/0 218/700 840 220/10 20 90 221/1 6 360 226/18       SEEN-BY: 226/20 30 44 50 227/114 229/110 134 206 300 307 317 400 426       SEEN-BY: 229/428 470 664 700 705 240/5832 266/512 280/5003 291/111       SEEN-BY: 301/1 320/119 219 319 2119 322/757 762 326/101 335/364 341/66       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 423/81 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 2320/0       SEEN-BY: 2320/105 304 3634/12 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 2320/105 154/10 221/6 1 320/219 229/426           |
