Next year wouldn’t really be as unexpected though, would it? Typically the local el nino/la nina effects overshadow year-over-year levels of climate warming and you have to compare similar el nino to el nino or la nina to la nina to clearly see the effects of climate change (and disinformation sources would intentionally compare el nino years to the following la nina years to show “global cooling” and pretend to panic about it). An increase in year-over-year temperatures despite the multi-year cycle decreasing is pretty alarming.
The acceleration of climate change is expected, but frequently have exceeded expectations of reasonable scientists. I guess at least this is occurring while solar irradiance as been on an upswing and not a downswing, but by the time the next el nino that ends as solar irradiance decreases, we’ll probably have accelerated enough that temps continue to increase anyways.
