    122°F (50°C) is the required sustained ocean temperature to theoretically form a continent spanning hypercane incase anyones interested.

        Wikipedia needs to be updated about the highest recorded temperature of the ocean 😓

        Hypercanes would have wind speeds of over 800 kilometres per hour (500 mph), potentially gusting to 970 km/h (600 mph)

        Nope, nope, nope !
