Warm water breeds stronger hurricanes quicker. This is pretty scary news for any Floridians who are already nervous about hurricane season.

Holy hell.
The news just keeps getting better.
What do you mean? There's a ton of liberal areas like Miami that nevertheless have to live with 104 degree, 80% humidity. I actively thought that staying outside for more than 30 minutes was a health risk. And even if they're conservative, I dread to think of how the elderly are handling this...
That can't be good for the fish...

California specific, but it's a cool program so I'm including it:
But 100 degrees is boiling! /s
I had hopes that I would not experience US defaultism on the fediverse, but alas.
Edit: to be clear, I did not expect a conversion to celcius, just F displayed as the unit.
You'd be surprised how many people can't read Celcius very well in the US. I'm one of those people and as an adult I'm still looking for a good way to leisurely learn it. My school was never even shown Celcius unless we took chemistry in high school and the teacher had more fun belittling people for not knowing chemistry than he did with actually teaching chemistry.
For a rough estimate, double the Celsius temp and add 32 to get Fahrenheit. Subtract 32 and divide by 2 to go from Fahrenheit to Celsius. If you want an accurate conversion multiply by 9/5 instead of 2.
For those wondering, this is about 38.3°C, so one degree above body temperature.
I keep checking Windy expecting to see a storm spiraling up. I hope El Nino keeps the hurricanes away this year....or Florida is going to hurt.
Will someone please hire me so I can move out of this state, please
Yikes- like a hot tub minus the chlorine.
tl;dr: fish broth yum!
