Another Factor that i've realized of late is the number and size of wildfires. The fires themselves have a most likely negligible effect on regional temperatures, but the deforestation and the huge emission of CO2as a direct result of this is nothing to sneeze at either. Warming has slowed, precisely because climate change is occurring on a structural level. Like ice melting to water, we're transitioning right now in the oceans to a state where things will be completely broken: the convective currents will be slowing and possibly stopp altogether in some places, which will undeniably have catastrophic results. _ I'll come back to this.
