So I thought hurricanes needed warm water

Where did this hurricane come from?

LOL are you serious? The water was still warm just East of New York. Also its why it is now sub tropical or whatever its called and will weaken dramatically shortly.

You probably are gonna bet the O/U of 110 on the LSU game too.

So what’s up with Hurricane Fiona in Nova Scotia, where the temp is 50 degrees?

---

Air temp =/= water temp.

the water off nova Scotia was 9 degrees warmer than average.

its not like it increased to cat 5. it reduced in category from its highest.

Is this where you tell us about the Bush weather machine?

Don’t be silly, humans are too stupid to come up with such technology.

It's a wonder we ever made it to the moon, I mean as stupid as we are.

There have been storms in the North Pacific that didn't form in warm water but that had the shape, pressure, and precipitation of a Hurricane/Cyclone and that were so wet and near freezing that ships were destroyed by the weight of ice on them. Forty years ago there were scientific discussions and they called them hurricanes because they met the criteria,

Think next time before you start a thread. Well, at least try.

Technically, it isn't Hurricane Fiona anymore. It is post-tropical cyclone Fiona.

I thought when former hurricanes hit the NE they referred to them as “super storms”.
