After 1877-78 it basically returned to what it was. However, HTHH may be a factor. 1870s had no coverage at the poles, which may keep anomalies high. The late 1870s were a solar minimum, we’re entering a max. That might mean less chance of la nina & lower albedo.
I know it's a joke, but for the sake of scientific accuracy, natural variability is bigger than average global warming in 1year. So 2025 might be hotter or colder than 2024. But it will most likely be hotter than any year of the 20th century.
The problem with that kind of statement is that it allows skeptics to say: you lied, climate change stopped this year. No, it hasn't. It's just not as regular as you think.
Nah. 2025 and 2026 will hover just below 2023, *then* we get the hottest year, which record will last for one year. It’ll all bounce about, creeping (or racing, like 2023) higher and higher over time.

How hot was the big bang ?
