Atlantic Tropical Weather Outlook
8:00 AM EDT Wed Oct 21 2026
Offshore of the East Coast of the United States (AL93):
A storm-force non-tropical low pressure area located a few hundred miles off the mid-Atlantic United States coast is producing some shower and thunderstorm activity primarily west and northwest of its center. Over the next day or two, the low could gradually lose its frontal features while it moves slowly north-northeastward over the Gulf Stream, allowing the system to possibly develop subtropical characteristics. By Friday, the system is expected to accelerate
northeastward away from the the eastern United States, and environmental conditions are expected to become unfavorable for additional subtropical or tropical development.
Regardless of the status of the system, high winds, coastal flooding, and dangerous surf are expected along portions of the U.S. East Coast during the next few days. For more information, please consult statements and warnings from local National Weather Service offices and the Weather Prediction Center, along with the High Seas Forecasts and the Storm Warnings issued by the National Weather
Service. It has a medium (40 percent) chance of formation in 48 hours and in the next 7 days.
