This graph was from his post of November 2023. At that point the 12 month Running Mean showed the Global Mean Temperature at +1.4°C. Hansen was projecting the peak of the El Nino at around +1.7C (pink dot). With temperatures cooling down slightly with La Nina conditions and the Rate of Warming shifting from the green line to the yellow cone.

This is his update in May of 2024.
