Another on the Way? Christy Threatens to Become Hurricane Amid Record Temps
Doug McIntyre discusses Tropical Storm Christy, which is forming in the Pacific and potentially intensifying into a Category One hurricane. With five weeks left in the hurricane season, record water temperatures in the Pacific, Atlantic and Caribbean — such as the Gulf’s 86 Fahrenheit — are driving increased hurricane activity. The warming trend significantly exceeds the 10-year average and could signal more storms forming in the Pacific and Atlantic in the coming weeks, with potential impacts on areas like Cuba, the Yucatan, Houston and Florida.
