The NHC works with the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) to coordinate watches and warnings for the entire Atlantic basin. We have the infrastructure to track, predict, and survey these storms, whereas many other nations do not. As such, by agreement with the WMO and its member nations -- pretty much the entire world, I believe -- the NHC is tasked with the responsibility for these storms. It makes sense, as well, considering the US is directly impacted by many of these storms as well.
