Although record-setting sea surface temperatures (#SST) alone don’t guarantee a busy #hurricane season, they do strongly influence it. Epicenter of Atlantic heat wave is #Caribbean, waters averaging 84.7F for the week, weekly temperature never seen before August, and already reaching well above the 1991-2020 average annual peak that typically isn’t hit until September.
