Things are heating up this summer in the Florida Keys — so much so, they might even break a world record. A buoy in Manatee Bay, located between the Everglades and Key Largo, recorded a water temperature of 101.1 degrees Fahrenheit at 6 p.m. on Monday, according to data from the National Weather Service. For context, hot tub temperatures are usually between 100 and 102 degrees. Temperatures in the bay remained above 100 degrees until 9 p.m. when they dropped to 99.5 F. The 101.1-degree measurement is unusually warm for this area and comes as ocean temperatures are breaking records across the globe. Though not officially confirmed, the reading could break the record for the highest observed sea surface temperature of 99.7 degrees recorded in Kuwait Bay, according to a 2020 study.
