Interesting article. You would really need to go back & look at this same data for the past 10 - 15 years to justify the hypothesis that warmer than average water temps in March/April result in more active tornado/hurricane seasons in that same year. You could also look for trends to this becoming more true.
Abnormally warm Gulf of Mexico could intensify the upcoming tornado and hurricane seasons
Water temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico are running more than three degrees above average, increasing the prospects for severe thunderstorms and tornadoes this spring and potentially stronger hurricane activity in the summer and fall.
