The unthinkable is happening - the world's oceans are boiling.
Since early 2023, sea surface temperatures have consistently broken daily heat records across the globe.
In this episode I point out that marine fever shows no signs of breaking, leaving climate experts sounding the alarm about a potentially devastating hurricane season.
In the main Atlantic hurricane development region, ocean temperatures are reaching "absolutely stunning" levels according to meteorologists.
These hotter-than-lava seas act as an octane boost for hurricanes, providing extra fuel to intensify these deadly storms as they rampage across the ocean.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is forecasting an "extremely active" 2024 Atlantic hurricane season with 25 named storms projected, including 12 hurricanes.
Of those, a staggering 9 major hurricanes at Category 3 strength or higher are expected to form.
With ocean temperatures raging, even weaker hurricanes pose an existential threat to buildings, businesses, homes and infrastructure near the coast.
Storm surge flooding that can inundate communities is a rising risk.
But perhaps most concerning is the potential for catastrophic wind damage.
Warm oceans turbocharge a hurricane's wind speeds.
Just a 1°C increase can cause wind speeds to jump by over 15 mph.
At Category 4 or 5 intensity, hurricanes pack wind gusts over 150 mph - more than enough to tear roofs off buildings and leave neighborhoods in ruins.
That's why it's absolutely critical to fortify your home or business now before hurricane season arrives.
A small investment in the right durable roofing materials and waterproof coatings could be the difference between an inconvenience and total devastation.
Industry-leading fluid-applied roofing membranes like Global Encasement, Inc. (GEI) RoofCoat seamlessly encase and protect the entire roof surface.
This continuous elastomeric membrane expanses and don't have any lapses, seams or joints that high winds can penetrate.
Once cured, GEI RoofCoat forms a monolithic, water-tight locking membrane of defensive protection.
Able to stretch and withstand wind gusts up to 155 mph, it prevents roof covering and insulation from blowing off during hurricanes.
GEI RoofCoat cross-link bonding, fluid applied and fully adhered systems remain stuck like cement even in extreme winds.
Don't let raging ocean temperatures and a turbocharged hurricane season leave your property exposed.
To Sum IT Up:
The Unthinkable Is Happening - The World's Oceans Are Boiling
Since early 2023, sea temperatures have consistently broken daily heat records across the globe in a dangerous marine fever.
The implications for the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season are catastrophic.
In the main hurricane development region, ocean heat is "absolutely stunning" according to meteorologists.
This acts like an octane boost, fueling hurricanes into violent, destructive intensity as they move over the blazing seas.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) expects 25 named storms, including 12 hurricanes in 2024.
A staggering 9 of those could reach Category 3 or higher major hurricane strength.
Just a 1°C ocean temperature rise allows hurricanes to gain over 15 MPH in wind speed.
At Category 4 or 5 intensity, these monsters pack devastating 150+ MPH gusts that can inflict catastrophic wind damage.
That's why proactive, defensive fortification of buildings and homes is absolutely critical before hurricane season hits.
Turn to seamless fluid-applied roofing membranes like GEI RoofCoat that is fluid applied and encases roofs in a monolithic, water-tight barrier, fully adhered to the surface it’s protecting to be able to withstand 155+ MPH winds without blow-off.
The oceans are boiling.
It's time to batten down the hatches with GEI RoofCoat before disaster strikes!
