Your “WTF Fact Of The Day” ➡️ A buoy near Manatee Bay, Florida recorded a jaw-dropping 101.1-degree water temperature on Monday. For perspective, the average hot tub temperature is 100-102 degrees Fahrenheit. 🥵 Per @npr reporting, rising ocean temperatures driven by climate change have scientists and activists warning of the dangerous effects on marine life, including coral that's recently sustained intense bleaching and damage in a short period. South Florida has been experiencing a sweltering heat wave recently that's been scorching the Miami area and beyond for much of July. Miami-Dade County has been under heat advisories or excessive heat warnings for 22 days straight, according to the National Weather Service. The previous record was three days. #wuc #kcm #knowitall #katiecouricmedia #florida #manateebay #oceantemp #heatwave #ocean
