    A Monster Hurricane Season Is Coming—and Here’s the Culprit

    The Atlantic hurricane season starts on June 1, and the Gulf of Mexico is already warmer than average. Even more worrying is a current of warm tropical water that is looping unusually far into the Gulf for this time of year, with the power to turn tropical storms into monster hurricanes.

    It’s called the Loop Current, and it’s the 800-pound gorilla of Gulf hurricane risks.

    While warm water helps hurricanes maintain and gain strength, it takes a hell of a lot more than just warm water to turn a hurricane into a monster.

    Fingers crossed for a recession, higher interest rates and Galveston getting hammered. I can then buy a beach house at reasonable prices and renovate.
