Yes, people forget that the 2° warming you keep hearing are global averages, including the oceans. If you restrict yourself to temperatures over land, the warming is much stronger. In addition, a small rise in average temperatures leads to a large rise in the number of days with high temperatures.

They have already roughly doubled since the eighties and global warming is just starting to get serious.
