I heard last summer was the hottest on record ever since maybe the bronze age or something like that. So does that mean this year's summer tops last year's?

Yes and the 10 warmest years on record globally have all happened since 1998, with 2014 on top as the warmest of all. Soon to be overtaken by 2015!

Not to worry. In a decade, the sun will be making a dramatic downturn in its output and we'll be engulfed in ice-age (mini or otherwise). The sun, and the shape of the orbit (and tilt of axis) are the prime-movers in climate variability.

Oh yes! The planetary pendulum will swing radically for awhile. At least until she shakes off some fleas.
