"The North Atlantic just completely destroyed its June average temperature record, breaking the previous record by more than 0.4 °C (0.7 °F).

A stunningly sharp excess for such a large body of water."

I'd like to point out that there are other spikes in the temperature historically. So while the temperature is rising year over year, the large increase here may be an anomaly.

Let's keep working on reducing our CO2 emissions...

But this spike is spikier than the last el Nino spike, so even if spikes do occur, this is the spikiest spike so far.
