The heat is (Still) on: Caribbean Braces for More Storms as High water Temps Linger

Doug McIntyre discusses AccuWeather’s forecast for more storms in the Caribbean, which points to continuing high temperatures in the South Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. With the Gulf’s water six degrees above normal and temperatures near 100F in parts of the Caribbean, conditions are primed for storm development and rapid intensification. Recent examples, such as Hurricanes Helene and Milton, demonstrated how quickly storms can escalate, posing significant threats to the U.S. coast.
