Hey, I'm interested in temperature recordings for the last 10 years but also for an estimate in the last billion years, this for hobby and fun. There are a lot of public sources but problem is many sites are torn down and others are created, so I feel very in the wild, it's like finding a tree in a forest.
Which site, which credentials exist at : 2019/02/20 :)
Thanks for any direction.

that should be easy with archived recordings from the local MET office

probably impossible for anything more than 150 - 200 years into the past

last billion years,

Dana L. Royer did an estimation of the radiative forcing during the Phanerozoic in "CO2-forced climate thresholds during the Phanerozoic". Besides this I don't know something going even before this.

I cannot speak to the billion years, but the last decade of New York, is covered fairly well by
NOAA's climate at a glance.

For the long-term temperature record, this Wikipedia page is a good place to start. It has estimates on several different time scales, although it only goes back a half billion years.

CO2 levels too if you are interested in the correlation
