On Monday, July 24th at 6:00 p.m. The Manatee Bay buoy recorded a sea surface temperature of 101.1° F. If verified, this would break the standing world record for hottest sea surface temperature of 99.7° F recorded in Kuwait Bay.
This comes as the Florida Keys and surrounding areas are under a marine heat wave resulting in record-breaking water temperatures.
The marine heatwave could have long-lasting impacts such as increasing intensity and frequency of hurricanes this season, as well as the loss of marine biodiversity.
