This is correct.
We have just come out of a longer than normal cooler La Niña period.
We are now moving into the warmer El Niño phase. The last El Niño event we had was in 2015/16 which was described as a “super El Niño” as a result of the heat it created.
Btw here is how Sea Surface Temperatures are measured https://argo.ucsd.edu
The Argo floats are currently collecting about 12,000 data profiles each month (400 a day).
