Unprecedented water temperatures in the Caribbean Sea, reaching 30°C and extending to depths of at least 50 meters, are providing an "endless fuel" source for tropical systems, according to a meteorological analysis posted on X on October 24th, 2025. The analysis, shared by the account WxNB_, highlights that the extensive warmth means storms could remain stationary for extended periods without encountering cooler water, a factor that significantly contributes to storm intensification. This condition was described as "unbelievably bad" by the source. The reporting window of October 23rd, 2025, 9:32:55 PM to October 24th, 2025, 12:32:55 AM UTC, falls within a period where such oceanic conditions are being closely monitored for their potential impact on tropical cyclone development in the Atlantic basin.
