Review of the World’s Weather in April of 2023 – May 13, 2023

Certainly, the Global ocean temperature setting a record for April is pretty significant. The combined land and ocean temperature being the fourth highest, to me is not a surprise at all as the first graphic in the body of the article suggests.
