For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Fernand, located over the central subtropical Atlantic.

East of the Windward Islands (AL99):
Showers and thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave located
about 200 miles east of the Windward Islands have increased since
yesterday. However, the wave does not appear to have a surface
circulation. This system could still become a tropical depression
during the next day or two while it moves quickly westward at about
20 to 25 mph, passing through the Windward and Leeward Islands
later today and early Monday. Regardless of development, locally
heavy rainfall and gusty winds are likely across portions of the
Windward and Leeward Islands today and Monday. The system is
expected to reach the central Caribbean Sea on Tuesday, where
conditions are forecast to become less favorable for additional
development. An Air Force reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to
investigate the system this afternoon, if necessary.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...40 percent.

by a turn to the northeast. On the forecast track, Fernand should
move well east of Bermuda and across the open waters of the
subtropical North Atlantic.
 
Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher  
gusts. Some strengthening is forecast during the next 48 hours. A
weakening trend is expected by Tuesday.

Tropical Storm Fernand Forecast Discussion Number 3

Tropical Storm Fernand Discussion Number   3
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL062025
500 AM AST Sun Aug 24 2025

Convection associated with Fernand remains poorly organized this 
morning, with a cluster near and just west of the center and a very 
ragged outer band in the northern semicircle. The various 
subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates remain in 
the 35-40 kt range, and the initial intensity is held at 35 kt.

The initial motion is 015/13 kt. As mentioned previously, Fernand 
is being steered around the western edge of the subtropical ridge, 
which will cause the storm to move north-northeastward during the 
next day or two. The system will then turn more northeastward and 
accelerate within the mid-latitude westerly flow between the ridge 
and an approaching trough. While the model guidance remains in good 
agreement with this scenario, the guidance envelop has shifted a 
little to the east since the previous advisory, Thus, the new 
forecast track is a little east of the previous track.

Fernand should remain over warm sea surface temperatures and in 
a light shear environment for the next 36 h or so. However, 
mid-level dry air near the cyclone may slow the development. The 
intensity guidance has again trended downward, and the new forecast 
peak intensity of 50 kt is near the upper edge of the guidance.  
After 36 h, cooler water, increasing shear, and increased dry-air 
entrainment should cause weakening, and Fernand is now forecast to 
become post-tropical by 72 hr. The global models are in good 
agreement that the system should degenerate to a trough by 96 h, 
and the official forecast shows dissipation by that time.

500 AM PDT Sun Aug 24 2025

For the eastern and central North Pacific east of 180 longitude:

Southwest of Southwestern Mexico (EP92):
A broad area of low pressure located a few hundred miles off the
coast of southwestern Mexico continues to produce disorganized
showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear
conducive for gradual development of this system, and a tropical
depression is likely to form during the next few days while it moves
generally west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph, remaining well off the
coast of Mexico. This system is expected to move into less
conducive conditions to develop around the middle of this week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...80 percent.
