The northern GOM has warmed substantially over the past 1-2 weeks. Some buoys are even reading some isolated areas of 32°C (90°F). You can see on the 7-day anomaly, how much it’s warmed in just the last week. Worrisome look for the Gulf Coast this hurricane season. #tropics #wx https://t.co/AgJLHos9sY
