A marine heatwave is traveling from the coast of West Africa to Iceland, creating the most extreme conditions witnessed in the North Atlantic in all of recorded history.
The roughly 4,000-mile-long stretch of superheated water is encircling the coast of West Africa, Europe and the United Kingdom, all the way up to Iceland and the tip of Greenland, according to graphics shared by meteorologist Colin McCarthy and others. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is describing the phenomenon, which could have dire consequences if it continues, as a Category 4 (extreme) marine heatwave. (Tweet)

Another hysterical article from The Cult. It's full of fear mongering and hyperbole: "...4,000-mile-long stretch of superheated water." For those (most people) who don't know, in real science, "superheated" water is water that has been heated to a temperature higher than its boiling point.

I think OP got the author wrong. This was written by Chicken Little.

Lots of hysterical words like "superheated," and much bandying about of extreme categories, but not a single measurement of how anomalously warm it is. Don't come back until you have some credible numbers.

Dang! Greenland might be green again. I confess. I ran my air conditioning and drove my gas guzzler. I'm bad.

I guess the fish will already be cooked when caught. Won't that save the planet from the effects of using a gas stove to fry them up?

And exactly what are we supposed to do about this? Give more money to politicians so they can "Study" this at some nice hotel while dining on sea bass and drinking fine wines?

Might be interesting if it was areliable source. Superheated does mean something scientifically, and you would have to have a major eruption all along the Mid-Atlantic ridge to make it happen.
Global warming doesn't cut it.

Farmers aren't supposed to use fertilizer any more, but the press can still write stuff like this?

Prove it. I doubt anything of this nature being reported these days. SO much fraud and lies being pushed off as "science".

The operative phrase is," In Recorded History. " How long has the temps of the ocean been recorded? I'll bet it's not even been a hundred years.

Right. The surface temperature is one degree C (1.8 degree F) warmer. Extreme?

Five years ago tomorrow, St. Greta predicated that the human race would end in five years. This could be it! /s

All I want to know is: Is this global warming going to interfere with the construction of Biden's Pacific and Indian Ocean railroad? I guess it is primarily on the other side of the continents, but still....

When people still feared God's wrath, a little unusual weather might have been taken as an indicator to stop what you are doing and do something else, like get on your knees and pray.
For those who worship the sun, we take this as an indication that we need to raise the debt ceiling.

"... in all of recorded history..."
You mean since the Egyptians starting using hieroglyphs? (Or would that be since the Sumerians started using cuneiform?) About 2000BC for both.
Or since we started recording reliable ocean temperatures in about 1880?
Please be precise; this is science we're talking about here. It'n it?

I guess that explains the coolest, rainiest summer I have seen in 31 years in North Carolina.

"Recorded history".....We have only had reliable thermometers available outside a laboratory from about 1730 or 1750 or so onward, so "recorded history" is MAX about 300 years, a literal blip in geological time.
Total hysterical BS.
