third month in succession global temperatures dropped

After I examined global temperatures I made a forecast of around 0.35C cooling by 2030 unfortunately, this trend is embedded it much larger natural variation, so whilst cooling is the best bet, there’s still a significant chance of warming.
However, whilst cooling isn’t inevitable, it is the most likely trend in the next few years so I can’t help taking a peak at the global temperature:-

And so I can’t help noticing that on Roy Spencer’s site, whilst small, the global temperature has seen three successive drops taking it from “on the high side of the pack” to “on the low side” and appearing to head toward “zero”.
However, as it’s now dropped around half of the total added cooling I’m predicting over the next 15 years and the 13month average regularly sees swings greater than the prediction, there’s no way I can claim this is anything to do with long term cooling.
But at least it’s in the right direction!
Just looking by eye, there’s possibly a 1 in 4 chance of a significant down swing before the next set of Scottish and US elections!
