+1C from pre-industrial times. Apparently we are at +0.8-1.2 in that measure.

The report says 0.2-0.5. The +0.6 from 1990 to today is at the lower end of that range. It seems to me you're splitting hairs when the models are doing alright.

Which all depends on how you choose "pre-industrial times" and how accurate you think temperature readings from those times are. Since even today's thermometers are only accurate to within half a degree or so, I'm not sure how we can even know the change from "pre-industrial times" to within less than half a degree (four tenths of a degree according to your statement). > The report says 0.2-0.5. The +0.6 from 1990 to today is at the lower end of that range. Yes, that's true. But as I noted, that's not the only comparison between models and data. Looking at comparisons overall, the statement I made, that the data is outside the lower end of the models' confidence interval, is correct.
