Hurricanes need to get their energy from somewhere. And that comes from warm water, all else being equal the warmer the water the stronger the Hurricanes can get.
He is basically say that, based on our understanding of physics/weather, this hurricane is about as strong as it can get based on the current conditions. I have no idea if that’s actually true, but that’s the idea. edit: About being at the current limit, I mean. The thing about warmer water allowing stronger hurricanes is definitely true.
