Discussion Valid from 6:00 AM 25/09/2026

Special features:
Tropical Storm Fay was moving west-southwest
of the Azores in a westerly direction. Fay is
no danger to the Caribbean.

Newly formed Tropical Storm Gonzalo was located
east- southeast of the Cabo Verde Islands and
was moving north- northwest. Gonzalo is no
danger to the Caribbean.

...CARIBBEAN SEA & LOCAL REGION...
No significant features are present at this time.
A weak tropical wave crossed the region without
significant rainfall. A next tropical wave will
enter the eastern Caribbean by Saturday and will
likely induce some moisture as it crosses the
region westward.

Otherwise, Saharan Dust concentrations will
increase during this forecast period. This
will induce somewhat hazy skies and bring
air of a lower quality to the region. People
sensitive for changes in the air quality must
monitor this feature and take precautions,
if necessary.

Marine conditions:
Smooth to slight seas are in place on the protected
south sites. Slight to moderate seas are noted on
the exposed south sides with seas of around 2 to
locally 3 feet. Moderate seas are noted over the
east to northwest coastal areas with seas of
4 to 5 feet.
