The Atlantic hurricane season typically begins June 1 since that's when we start to see sea surface temperatures above 26C (79F), the threshold required for hurricanes to form. This year, as of May 29, nearly the entire hurricane formation area is already above the threshold (yellow-orange areas).

In the Pacific the 26C also marks the start of the season? Or why the difference in dates. I know it's a dumb question

Fox News will translate this into "Scientists predict hurricanes will be worse with Biden as president."
