NOAA just forecast a below-normal hurricane season. Fewer storms. Less trump administration vs comey activity. But there's something in the Gulf of Mexico right now that the storm count doesn't capture and if one hurricane finds it before landfall, the cities most at risk won't have enough time to react.

Sea surface temperatures in the Gulf are running near record levels. The Loop Current just shed a warm core eddy and is already in regrowth phase. Five of the ten fastest-intensifying US landfalling hurricanes in history have happened in the last nine years. And the early-season window before El Nio's suppressive effect fully kicks in is open right now.

This video breaks down exactly what forecasters are watching, which cities are most exposed, and why a below-normal season doesn't mean a safe one.
