The graphic below shows where tropical systems most likely form during July. In general, sea water surface temperatures must be 80 degrees Fahrenheit or greater to sustain a tropical system. Waters over the Gulf of Mexico, Southeast coast, and Caribbean begin to reach this threshold by the end of the month. Few hurricanes form during July, but the season begins to get going by the second week of August.
