Some people only like THEIR version of the "facts".

They can't accept the truth, so they deny it.

“The Gulf of Mexico this week is the hottest it’s been at any point in any year on record by a wide margin,” Lowry tweeted.

The warm water has boosted the humidity along the Gulf Coast and kept overnight temperatures at record-high levels. New Orleans and Baton Rouge have already registered 11 record warm lows this month. And Houston and Orlando have each seen 10.

With weeks of muggy weather still ahead, New Orleans, Mobile, Ala., and Tampa have already exceeded their annual average for the number of hours with a dew point temperature of at least 75 degrees (any dew point over 70 is uncomfortably humid). That’s an ugly amount of stickiness, with more undoubtedly to come.

well a dew point over 65 is considered tropical....and 40% of the worlds population lives in tropical zones

somehow they go to work and live with it

I think this "feels like" mess is designed around a bunch of transplant yankees LOL

It's the lack of the normal tropical storms. With out those enormous heat engines the ocean just stays warm, because you know, the sun.

What suppressing cyclone formation this year?

There is also the drastic increase in stratospheric water vapor (SWV). What results from a huge influx of SWV is an actual unknown. It does seem like it has changed the climate however.

all of our weather, including hurricanes, takes place in the troposphere

VOLCANIC ERUPTION DRAMATICALLY INCREASED WATER VAPOR IN THE STRATOSPHERE

"Among their findings: stratospheric water vapor levels several thousand miles from the site of the eruption were as high as 358 parts per million. That was a staggering increase over the typical level of five parts per million."
