High SSTs appear to be starting their southward trek [1990/95?]. Potentially
high SSTs and associated bleaching conditions have recently been in the vicinity
of the Flower Gardens and are now [8/4] again back in the waters of the northern
Bahamas and Florida Keys. SSTs have been high enough to have caused some
bleaching around Bermuda...
