Where a storm is running right now

This page pulls the situation every three hours from the NOAA National Hurricane Center, the official body for the Atlantic and the eastern Pacific. The NHC issues a new advisory every six hours, and every three while watches or warnings are in force; the page cannot be closer to the source than that, and should not be slower. It shows what is currently carried as a system, how strong it is, where it sits and where it is heading.

Nothing here is converted or interpreted. What you read is what the NHC publishes. The cruising areas are a rough match by position, so you can see in two seconds whether this concerns you at all.

Pulled at: 11 Sep 2026, 09:07 UTC · The Atlantic hurricane season is running. It lasts from 1 June to 30 November.

The picture at a glance

Each spiral is a system at its reported position, the colour carries the strength, the dashed arrow the direction of travel. The boxes are the cruising areas we watch; a box lights up as soon as a system sits inside it.

  • Tropical depression, below 34 kt
  • Tropical storm, 34 kt and above
  • Hurricane, 64 kt and above
  • Major hurricane, 96 kt and above
  • Pulsing ring: official watches or warnings in force

This page is not a forecast and not a warning service. The National Hurricane Center and the competent local authority are the only binding sources.

What matters now

If your boat lies in the Caribbean, the Bahamas or on the US East Coast, you act on the plan you made earlier, not on this page. If you have no plan, today is the day to make one.

Photograph the boat, the lines and the surroundings before anything happens. After a storm that is the only evidence of how it looked before.

Read what your own contract says about the hurricane season. Many contracts carry their own rules for it.

When it comes to it, the instruction of the local authority and the marina applies, not what a website says.

What do you see where you are?

We read numbers from Miami. Someone standing on the dock sees more: whether the marina is clearing out, whether the boats are already ashore, whether the pontoon is holding. Send it to us and the next person who asks will know.

This is not an emergency line. If you or anyone else is in danger, call the coastguard or the local authority, not us. If you are insured with us and something has happened, use the claims route, where it goes straight into the process.

Report a claim

Everything that arrives here is read by a person. Nothing appears on this page by itself, and nothing is passed on to third parties.

Pass it to someone it concerns

Whoever has a boat down there wants to know today, not the day after tomorrow.
