Despite El Niño fading, the mean global sea surface temperature averaged over the last three months was the highest on record relative to any other April to June period...

Data from NOAA ERSSTv5: https://psl.noaa.gov/data/gridded/data.noaa.ersst.v5.html
Green line graph time series of average sea surface temperature anomalies for each April to June from 1854 through 2024. There is large interannual variability, but an overall long-term increasing trend. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1981-2010 baseline. 2024 is the warmest on record.

The trend in the curve is the most alarming: it shows no indication of leveling off

From what I understood, that's part of *why* el Nino is fading. There's a bit at the end where super cooled water sinks, driving the current. When the water isn't so cool it doesn't sink as fast.. Or something like that. https://www.wired.com/story/amoc-collapse-atlantic-ocean/?utm_source=DamnInteresting courtesy of @DamnInteresting
