So much for the hope that the uptick we saw in the North Atlantic SSTs on June 15 was just a one-day blip. Going back up now... and based on the 1991-2020 climatology, the current temperature is at 3.31 standard deviations above the mean, or about a 1-in-2200 chance of happening. pic.twitter.com/lEMt7MEpXg
