And how deep does the warm water go down?

Not sure about the depth temps

How do you find out the temps beneath the surface?

That's an awesome map MCorder! Where do you find it?

SSTs

Heat potential

Depth of 26C isotherm

Sea height anomaly

Let's just hope it doesn't go over that Loop Current...there's a lot of energy waiting to be unleashed there.

How much do sea surface temperatures matter?

Is a sst of 80 degrees which goes down 200 feet more potent than a sst of 90 degrees, but 200 feet under it's 75 degrees?

I doubt it. 80 degrees is about the low end to support a typical tropical system.
