From The Daily Sceptic<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By\u00a0Chris Morrison<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a year of damaging revelations about the state of the Met Office\u2019s temperature measuring network, the\u00a0Green Blob-funded<\/a>\u00a0\u2018fact-checker\u2019\u00a0Science Feedback<\/em>\u00a0has sprung to the defence of the state-funded U.K. weather service. It has\u00a0published a long \u2018fact check\u2019<\/a>\u00a0seeking to exonerate practices that have recently come to light including the locating of stations with huge heat corrupted \u2018uncertainties and the publication of invented data from 103 non-existent sites. Inept is a word that springs to mind. At one point,\u00a0Science Feedback<\/em>\u00a0justifies the estimation of data at the non-existent stations by referring to the hastily changed Met Office explanation for station\/location long-term averages. The original and now deleted Met Office webpage referenced station names and provided single location coordinates including one improbable sitting next to the sea on Dover beach. This would appear to be a new low in the world of so-called fact-checking \u2013 designating copy as \u2018misleading\u2019 based on an explanation changed after the article was published.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first Daily Sceptic<\/em> article reporting on the existence of 103 non-existent stations can be read here<\/a>. The second appeared last month here<\/a> and detailed the unannounced web changes and the obvious cover-up intended to deflect criticism from the invented station data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the verdict \u201cmisleading\u201d Science Feedback<\/em> claims that the average data going back 60 years for stations is not \u201cfabricated\u201d but estimated using \u201cwell-correlated related neighbouring stations\u201d. This is said to be a scientific method that is published in peer-reviewed literature. The Met Office discloses it has \u201crelatively few\u201d stations with 30-year data from which long-term averages can be calculated. The distinction between estimated and fabricated is moot. A pundit calling the winner of a sports match before it has taken place is an estimation of the result, and the opinion is no less a fabrication or invention however distinguished the pundit and however well-regarded any peers signalling agreement might be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us examine the claim of \u201cwell-correlated neighbouring stations\u201d by taking an example from the Met Office\u2019s now renamed \u201clocation-specific long-term averages\u201d climate database. Cawood in the West Riding of Yorkshire is a pristine Class 1 site designated by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) as providing uncorrupted data over a large surrounding area. It also has an immaculate record of temperature recordings from the same site stretching back to 1959. But no rolling 30-year average for Cawood is provided. Instead the Met Office flags data for five other sites between two and 27 miles distant. Unlike Cawood, all of these have average data despite the fact that four no longer exist and the fifth, High Mowthorpe, is 27 miles away and at a 163 metres higher elevation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again we are obliged to the super sleuthing of Ray Sanders for bringing the Cawood data to light<\/a>. He is not inclined to be charitable and notes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The Met Office has opted not to perform a simple long-term averaging representation from just one Class 1 site\u2019s readings (with no other inputs required) and in preference has supplied no fewer than five alternative much inferior sites with all manner of adjusted, amended, modified and likely corrupted so-called \u2018data\u2019 to confuse the public. The term \u2019smoke and mirrors\u2019 comes to mind.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Why is the Met Office not showing the data for the long-running Class 1 Cawood site, he asks, adding: \u201cWhat are you trying to hide?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Science Feedback<\/em> puff for the Met Office takes aim at both the investigative work conducted by the Daily Sceptic<\/em> and Ray Sanders who publishes on the Tallbloke\u2019s Talkshop<\/em> blog. It has all the hallmarks of being written in collaboration with the Met Office since its long and detailed explanations have mostly come from the latter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Science Feedback<\/em> is a partner with Meta where it acts to \u201cverify the credibility of viral content\u201d on Facebook and Instagram. In 2020 it was given seed funding from the Google News Initiative, \u201cto build a database of fact-checked content, allowing to identify sources that repeatedly spread misinformation\u201d. Regular readers will recall that Google has past form in trying to disadvantage inconvenient temperature information on the internet. In 2022, Dr. Roy Spencer\u2019s page detailing accurate satellite temperature data, showing less long-term warming than that claimed by surface measurements, was kicked off Google AdSense for publishing \u201cunreliable and harmful claims<\/a>\u201d. The decision looks more stupid by the day with Spencer\u2019s UAH measurements confirming the recent short-lived spike in the global temperature. Regular readers will also recall that at a 2022 World Economic Forum \u2018disinformation\u2019 seminar, the UN\u2019s global communication chief Melissa Fleming noted that her organisation had partnered with Google to ensure that only UN-approved climate research results appeared at the top of search inquiries. \u201cWe are becoming more proactive, we own the science<\/a> and we think the world should know it,\u201d she boasted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last March, the Daily Sceptic<\/em> shocked the climate science world by revealing via a Freedom of Information (FOI) request that nearly eight in 10 Met Office sites across the U.K. were so poorly sited in junk Class 4 and super junk Class 5 that they had WMO \u2018uncertainties\u2019 of 2\u00b0C and 5\u00b0C respectively. Yet these measurements, used to calculate data to one hundredth of a degree centigrade, are a key climate indication backing the Net Zero fantasy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Science Feedback<\/em> states that the Met Office \u201cclearly explains\u201d on its website that many of its stations are of higher classes 3 and 4. Looking at the block graph above, a more accurate and clearer explanation would be that most, indeed almost all, of its stations are in Classes 4 and 5. The Met Office notes that WMO guidelines do not state that Class 5 sites cannot be used for climate reporting. In fact the WMO guidance states that a Class 1 location can be considered as a reference site, while a Class 5 site is a \u201cinappropriate environment for a meteorological measurement that is intended to be representative of a wide area\u201d. What this means is that \u2018record\u2019 temperatures collected besides airport runways swept by jet exhaust are useful for pilots operating in the immediate environment but are a bit of an ask when it comes to pumping the Net Zero climate emergency narrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As explained to Science Feedback<\/em> by a Met Office spokesman, continued the curious fact check, \u201cdata will only be quoted in climate records if the weather station it comes from meets inspection standards\u201d. Well it seems that that this depends on who is conducting the \u201cinspections\u201d \u2013 not the WMO, that is for sure. According to information released under a FOI request to Paul Homewood, the Met Office states it will only quote records from classes 1 to 4. Data from Class 5 \u201cwill be flagged and not quoted in national records\u201d, it adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In reality, the Met Office barely pauses for breath in its rush to declare recent Class 5 site records<\/a>. These include the highest daily maximum temperature in Northern Ireland set in 2021 at Castlederg. The highest January monthly temperature was set last year at Achfary and this Class 5 site also holds the record set in December 2019. Three U.K. area records have also been set at Class 5 locations including England NW, East Anglia and England SE and Central S. This latter record was provided by St. James\u2019s Park, which was one of five sites that were said to top 40\u00b0C on July 19th, 2022. This particular event was lauded at the time by the Met Office as a \u201cmilestone in climate history\u201d. The record 40.3\u00b0C was a 60-second spike of 0.6\u00b0C recorded around the same time as three Typhoon jets were landing at RAF Coningsby, while another 40\u00b0C site was Northolt airport, also designated Class 5. In total, all but two claimed records since 2000 arise from Class 4 and 5 locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Met Office explains to\u00a0Science Feedback<\/em>\u00a0that it continues to use its higher-class stations because it has its own \u201clong-standing inspections standards\u201d. In other words, it marks its own homework as the block graph below, again the result of an FOI request, shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Clearly a big improvement since the Met Offices rates over nine out of 10 of its stations<\/a> as \u2018Excellent\u2019, \u2018Good\u2019 and \u2018Satisfactory\u2019. Those of a cynical nature might riff on the warning from an earlier age that self-regulation, like self-stimulation, leads to blindness. Just 27 \u2018Unsatisfactory\u2019 stations, presumably real shockers, are to be found on the naughty step. The in-house inspections are said to \u201censure data quality and minimise uncertainty\u201d. If a site falls below the acceptable inspection standards it will be either closed or its measurements will not be used in climate records, promises the Met Office. Possibly an outbreak of extremely short sight explains why the highest recorded \u2018record\u2019 temperature in Wales was recorded at the \u2018Unsatisfactory\u2019 site of Hawarden Airport in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
