In reality, there is constant flux with sea surface temps being at different times and places, cooler and warmer than air temps.

After the Super El Niño, global temperatures achieved a new plateau (see simple anomaly averages - the dashed pink lines), which current monthly variability of sea surface temps now appear to oscillate around.

«One of the major modes of climate variability is El Niño and when we're in El Niño there's a large area of warm sea surface temps in the Pacific,» this leads to more precipitation on the West Coast, Crouch said.

The home - grown GISS tracker is tuned to match IPCC (2013) RCP8.5 long - term trend (because that's the best match to current emissions trajectory), solar cycle and short - term (9 - month) ONI / ENSO sea surface temp forecasts, but no accounting for PDO, AMO, AO or NAO.

The past few years have seen warmer sea surface temps in the eastern Pacific.

Hurricanes do have a deep surface mixing effect that normal tropical convection doesn't produce, and that would be expected to result in greater transfer of heat to the atmosphere, but it gets complicated in a hurry; see the realclimate discussion of the Walker circulation for example, as well as the link between hurricanes and sea surface temps.

It's not entirely clear to me whether he's talking about the peak in sea surface temps or whether he was expecting the January UAH data to have peaked, but February came back and blew January out of the water (so to speak).
