Just a wild guess, but maybe it was cold around the Great Lakes and warm in other places, like Asia maybe.

If 2014 was the 'hottest year ever' . . .

Then how come 2014 set the second highest ice coverage ever
recorded for the Great Lakes?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/wp/2015/01/16/great-lakes-ice-makes-a-leap-after-january-cold-snap/

“Last year, the Great Lakes were 21.2 percent ice-covered on Jan. 14, making this year’s ice cover 13 percent higher to date,” writes weather.com. “If you recall, below-average temperatures were persistent from mid-January onward in the winter of 2014, leading to the second highest ice coverage on record at 92.2 percent on March 6, 2014.”
