Mauna Loa - Since The Week Starting 3/22 Through The Week Starting 6/14, We Have Been At/Above 430 ppm CO2

The only exception is the week starting May 3rd, for which data are missing.

The only outlier was the week beginning February 22nd, which was 430.17.

It's a long file, so just Control/End to jump to this year's results.
