Was your camp in the cone of ball pit pelting? We had hundreds, potentially thousands, of blue ball pit balls blast us.

100 years of June sea surface temperature anomalies updated through 2025. Note the long-term warming (climate change) and other patterns of variability (e.g., El Niño/La Niña). Our oceans are accumulating a lot of excess heat!
