Look at this loop and select the SST box to see the sea surface temps. Is that accurate? It shows 24-25C water where Carlos is and yet it is a wonderfully formed small hurricane.

Any idea on whether or not that SST data is accurate? If so, then wow, a hurricane over less than 26C water. Interesting.
Carlos over cool water?

Yes, I saw it. I guess it's wrong.

Re: Carlos over cool water?
I discussed this in the Carlos thread. Those cool SST's continually shift to the west with Carlos. It's wrong.

Mark,the best way this thread will be out of the first page of TT is to let go down the drain without anymore replies.
