There are other factors besides the SST'S that will guide how the season will be in terms of activity but this SST factor only is favorable already to fuel tropical waves so it is a matter that the other factors combine and then boom.

That map is a little decieving IMO. Because if you look at the link below you will see the temps are infact warmer. And as well these temps are updated hourly.

If you went by that map above one would think the water temps around here are still in the 60s if that when infact the water temps are in the low to mid 70s around here.

Yes KOW those grafics that I posted are in general zones in the whole atlantic basin and are updated every day but what you posted is an hourly update of the US coastline and shows more warm temps than my links above.But I wanted to show the whole Atlantic basin how warm it is turning even close to west Africa.

Hope we don't get a blob to just sit in the Gulf for days.

SSTs are a bit below normal across the central and southern Caribbean, and just slightly above normal in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. Really, not much out of the ordinary there, except for the general flow patterns aloft which I think may well steer a major hurricane into the northwest Gulf in August.
