Looks like it is currently in full swing
Extreme weather conditions from all over the globe in the past 5 years.

............... Forecasters are suggesting that the current heatwave engulfing Greece is set to be the longest in its history, lasting up to 16–17 days, surpassing the 1987 heatwave.
It was also expected to be the hottest July recorded in more than 50 years.[3] ...............

the ice masses are melting, losing huge masses

............ Antarctica is losing ice mass (melting) at an average rate of about 150 billion tons per year, and Greenland is losing about 270 billion tons per year, adding to sea level rise. ........

We are still swimming in the ocean, that is my indicator of ocean temperatures.
