It was already bad when the sea surface temperature was well over 90 degrees Fahrenheit last week, but…over 100?

FYI that’s hot tub hot, as this other article notes: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/weather/hot-tub-water-temperatures-florida-soar-100-degrees-stunning-experts-rcna96163

This might be record-breaking. In the worst sense possible.
