Scientists.
And OTHER scientists are fully welcome to challenge that consensus. To date, there have been no successful alternative hypotheses to explain 20th and 21st century warming.
People got tired of the invented CRT hysteria and the invented anti-woke hysteria, so they're looking around for something else to feed their addiction.
It's Florida, after all.
What it says:
"Non Stop Hurricane Warnings"
What it does NOT say:
"Getting tired of the non-stop hurricane season preparedness chatter"
If you'd like to get better informed, I recommend this. It's fascinating.

Frontline also has an excellent 3-part series, viewable online called The Power of Big Oil.
Dozens of legislators paid by them and lobbied by them, industry consultants who worked for them, and former employees all discuss how they now realize they were lied to by the oil industry, that the industry KNEW they were already warming the climate and it was going to get worse.
Instead of taking action, they went full-court-press on the disinformation campaign.
Those same folks (legislators/consultants/employees) now wish they had acted differently back in the 1990s to work on lowering our emissions and dependence on oil 3 decades ago.
What it does not say: Anything about NHC or Official or Forecasters....
I sorta agree with the idea that human life might not be a 1000% sure thing for Earth.If you'd like to get better informed, I recommend this. It's fascinating.

Florida used to be underwater. Parts of middle USA were a giant inland sea.
I expect to.have checked out a good while before such drastic conditions prevail again.
I’m watching our 5:00 news and guess what’s on right now!
Starting tomorrow there’s a sales tax holiday for any sort of items that might be considered hurricane supplies.
LOL!
The 10 Most-Respected Global Warming Skeptics

That's one dude.
Who did quantum physics. Not climate science.
So, not a climate scientist.
They are simply "hurricane season preparedness" media spots.
And the guy who was crying about not being able to buy bottled water on Amazon for <$230 for a 24pk when his area had a looming hurricane is whining about those reminders...
Oh, look... even stodgy old The Economist is jumping on the hysteria bandwagon....

America could face its most active hurricane season ever
Coastal states must brace themselves for extreme weather in an election year

Weird
That doesn't look at all like a "hurricane warning"
Well, NOAA is predicting 17-25 named storms, 8-13 hurricanes, and 4-7 major hurricanes (Category 3 and higher).Oh, look... even stodgy old The Economist is jumping on the hysteria bandwagon....

It's nothing to take too lightly, especially for new residents to Florida.

The water is too warm. 100 degrees in the Keys for a few days last summer. Jet fuel for hurricanes.
No one likes your schtick, Joe. And yet you keep on being unlikeable you....
U has a mad.
Because people are telling you to get your bottle water TODAY and not wait to try and order from Amazon AFTER the hurricane is tracking to go over your neighborhood....
A buoy off the coast of Sarasota hit 90 degrees yesterday.
Weird how it took you 2 this long to mention this. Trad would prefer his faux outrage over truth. This holiday is what is driving the narrative the media is sharing. A tax holiday instituted by the state to pump money into the economy and drive up spending.
Neither are you -or are you? Neither is Al Gore. And the unfortunate little Scandinavian girl who’s being used. (Oh wait she’s moved on to being openly anti-Semitic…
I’m not outraged at all. It’s become amusing to those of us who grew up here and hurricane prep by our parents was filling up the tub with with water and getting fresh batteries for the transistor radio. Maybe an extra bag of charcoal so they could cook on the grill once the storm passed. We had a Coleman stove because we went camping a lot so we were better off than some. I was a kid when Dora hit us in Jax and we were without power for a week.
We have so many transplants who live in a state of anxiety six months of the year but they sure wanna keep moving here. They’re clueless about hurricanes.
The tax holiday does drive spending because it also encourages people to make better preparations. Bottled water, batteries, candles, tarp, lots of crackers and p-nut butter, etc. Even pet food is tax exempted.
My Sister in law and her family barely survived Andrew in South Miami back in ‘92. The neighborhood men got lawn chairs and set up at the front of their cul de sac with guns. (Amazing how many folks had them suddenly appear)
The looters drove by, looked, and kept on going. Their house had most of the roof gone, and they slept in their cars.
The last two storms that hit our area caused damage but we didn’t even lose power.
No. They’re suggesting it because we have some newcomers who are clueless.
Are Florida ocean waters really 100 degrees? Not quite. We explain
There are a number of factors that are playing into Florida’s extreme water temperatures and while these statistics are certainly a reason to give pause, Local 10 Hurricane Specialist and Storm Surge Expert Michael Lowry says there are some things to keep in mind.
“I’ve been investigating this over the past several weeks,” says Lowry, “as near triple-digit water temperatures struck me as suspiciously high, even with the record Gulf warmth.”
The temperatures were obtained from a buoy at Manatee Bay just north of the Florida Keys where the 101.1 F was recorded.
Keep in mind, these are waters in the Everglades, not ocean waters near the beach, Lowry explains.
But the buoy reports did seem to be making waves.
Being a scientist himself, Lowry wanted to dig into the historical data for a number of the buoy stations that were recording the high temperatures. What he found was that the stations that record the numbers are in “very shallow water” surrounded by properties that could skew the readings very high.
Lowry explains that mud flats, mangroves, and other submerged aquatic vegetation more readily absorb the sunlight, which could account for the very high readings.
He reached out to colleagues at NOAA’s National Ocean Service and the National Data Buoy Center. “They agreed the numbers seemed high, especially compared to their nearby sensors which were reading 92-94°F,” says Lowry.

The news from earlier this week was that water temperatures in Florida were 101 degrees, but were they and where?
