Among the conditions that form hurricanes are broad expanses of ocean with surface temperatures of at least 26.5°C (about 80°F). Figure 2 displays surface ocean temperatures on 23 and 30 August 2017, near Harvey's landfall. The western Gulf of Mexico sea-surface temperatures range from dark red for 32°C to dark blue at 26°C, with the detailed legend below and to the left of the map. On the right, the temperatures on 30 August use the same scale, with the Harvey track added and color coded for hurricane strength.
