Surface temperatures in parts of Europe appear to have have averaged nearly 1 °C below the 20th century mean during multidecadal intervals of the late 16th and late 17th century (and with even more extreme coolness for individual years), though most reconstructions indicate less than 0.5 °C cooling relative to 20th century mean conditions for the Northern Hemisphere as a whole.

My amateur spreadsheet tracking and projecting the monthly NASA GISS values suggests that while 2018 and 2019 are likely to be cooler than 2017, they may also be the last years on Earth with global average land and ocean surface temperature anomaly below 1C above pre-industrial average (using 1850 - 1900 proxy).
Springtime cold air outbreaks (at least two consecutive days during which the daily average surface air temperature is below 95 % of the simulated average wintertime surface air temperature) are projected to continue to occur throughout this century.19 As a result, increased productivity of some crops due to higher temperatures, longer growing seasons, and elevated CO2 concentrations could be offset by increased freeze damage.20 Heat waves during pollination of field crops such as corn and soybean also reduce yields (Figure 18.3).4 Wetter springs may reduce crop yields and profits, 21 especially if growers are forced to switch to late - planted, shorter - season varieties.
The low luminosity of the early Sun was such that the Earth's average surface temperature would have been below 0 °C from 4500 to 2000 million years ago.
The report chooses a scenario with 66 % probability of keeping the average global surface temperature rise throughout the 21st century to below 2C.
The well below freezing surface winter temperatures of Northern high latitudes are such wildly variable almost non-correlated data points which tell almost nothing of the real warming (i.e. increase in heat content of the Earth system) but may affect in an unpredictable way the global average surface temperature.
Without the natural greenhouse effect, the average temperature at Earth's surface would be below the freezing point of water.
The differences between the modeled and observed 30 - year average surface temperatures are listed below the x-axes on each graph.
The temperature of the water below the surface remained above - average, as the large area of warmer - than - average subsurface waters continued to move slowly to the east (a downwelling Kelvin wave).
The «Temperature Departure From Average» map below further reveals the areas of concentration for climate engineering orchestrated chemical cool - downs and sea surface chemical ice nucleation (also fueling extreme hail events).
This means that if you are younger than 38 years old, you've never experienced a year in which the global average surface temperature was below average.
With a heat capacity for the total atmosphere equal to ~ 3 meter of water and an average temperature far below the average surface temperature there is no way you can warm Earth's surface and oceans from the atmosphere.
The map below show current sea surface temperature anomalies — that is the difference from average temperatures.
As can be seen from the curve below, the HadCRUT3 «globally and annually averaged land and sea surface temperature anomaly» shows slight (if statistically insignificant) cooling over the past 15 years (180 months).
Unfortunately using global average surface air temperatures as a measure of total warming ignores the fact that most of the heat (more than 93 %) goes into our oceans, which continue to warm without any sign of a pause, as you can see below.
If we depleted the atmosphere over Earth from todays 1013 hPa to 500 hPa we would have an average temperature over Equator at the surface as it is today at 18.000 feet, that is below freezing!
One can even see the comb effect where there are a number of absorbing lines close together (look below 8 microns) and the equivalent radiation temperature varies rapidly with wavelength between surface and tropopause temperature giving a very jagged plot until the lines get so close together that the interferometer can not resolve them and one gets a very noisy average.
The map below presents the estimated change in average surface air temperature for 2014 relative to the thirty - year average from 1981 to 2010.
