the temperature was 84-88 degrees Fahrenheit
Hurricane Andrew formed over water, as do all hurricanes.
The coastal flooding was the result of something called a storm surge. This occurs when the winds of a hurricane drive ocean water onto land.
Fiona dissipated just south of Bermuda and is no longer a threat to land or water.
Surface water temperature plays a critical role in hurricane energy, as warmer waters provide the heat and moisture needed for storm development and intensification. Typically, sea surface temperatures above 26.5 degrees Celsius (about 80 degrees Fahrenheit) are conducive to hurricane formation. As the temperature increases, it can lead to more intense storms, as warmer water enhances evaporation and fuels the hurricane's energy through the release of latent heat. Consequently, rising ocean temperatures due to climate change may contribute to more powerful hurricanes.
No, warm water fuels a hurricane
Hurricane Andrew formed over water, as do all hurricanes.
The warmer the water is the greater the potential for the formation or strengthening of a hurricane.
A hurricane typically forms when ocean temperatures are around 80°F (27°C) or higher. However, once a hurricane develops, it does not have a specific temperature associated with it as it is a large, complex storm system fueled by warm, moist air.
After a hurricane passes, the ocean surface water temperature is usually cooler due to the intense mixing of water caused by the storm's strong winds and turbulent waves. This mixing brings deeper, colder water up to the surface, replacing the warmer surface water. Additionally, the evaporation of water during the hurricane can further cool the surface temperature. The combined effects of these processes result in a significant drop in the temperature of the ocean's surface after the storm.

it sweats when it is out from the fridge
At room temperature, the air contains moisture which condenses, on coming in contact with the container having cold water. Hence, dews are formed
As I understand it, hurricanes develop, and enlarge as a result of absorbing ENERGY in the form of HEAT from the water over which they travel.Therefore, the greater the heat, the greater the chances of a hurricane growing larger and more violent. And the converse of that is also true: As the temperature of the mass [water or land] over which the hurricane travels decreases, the greater the tendency for it to weaken and dissipate.
The large dome of water formed under a hurricane is called a storm surge. It is created by strong winds pushing water towards the shore, causing sea levels to rise significantly. Storm surges can result in coastal flooding and cause extensive damage to coastal areas.

No. A hurricane on water is simply a hurricane. Tsunami is a large wave triggered by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake. A hurricane is a type of storm.
