See hurricane tracker to find 'best' date, highest winds with lowest pressure: 9 16 09. Clicking on 16 shows the file is called 2020 09 17 at 9, so click on 15. 15 says 2020 09 16 09.
Clicking on that requires Earthdata login.
It will prompt you to download 20200916090000-JPL-L4_GHRSST-SSTfnd-MUR-GLOB-v02.0-fv04.1.nc
Before looking at it, check the metadata.

Sea surface temperature data were obtained from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Multiscale Ultrahigh Resolution (MUR) sea surface temperature product (https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/dataset/MUR-JPL-L4-GLOB-v4.1). This is a daily 1-km-resolution product that blends 1-km infrared sensor data and 25-km microwave sensor data.
Why not use v4.2?
