Over the last few days the UK has experienced balmy spring weather with temperatures often settling in the low 20s Celsius. The Met Office has been out in force colouring the maps orange and declaring \u2018extreme\u2019 highs all over the green and pleasant land. Or more accurately, a remarkably few chosen spots across the g&p land. Net Zero promotion demands ever higher temperature recordings so only unnaturally heat-ravaged sites provide most of the daily records. I looked at the last nine days of Met Office records to Sunday May 18th and can reveal that nearly nine out of 10 local \u2018extreme\u2019 daily temperature highs were posted in junk Class 4 and super junk Class 5 sites with internationally-recognised \u2018uncertainties\u2019 of 2\u00b0C and 5\u00b0C respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certain locations crop up constantly in the records. In nine days the Scottish sites at Aboyne and Tyndrum recorded area highs eight and seven times respectively. In England, Coton-in-the-Elms recorded seven daily highs while Kielder Castle posted six. Of course the recording of highs in these corrupted sites didn\u2019t mean the air temperature was representative of the wider surrounding area. It just meant that the sites were poorly located next to unnatural heat sources and were producing a false natural air record, recently re-badged by the Met Office as a so-called \u2018extreme\u201d high. Until the Met Office sorts out its largely junk-class 380-plus weather station network, these records and recordings are largely meaningless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every day the Met Office posts a daily high temperature for 16 locations around the UK<\/a>. In the nine consecutive days under review, I initially found that 83.8% of the highs were recorded in Class 4 and 5 sites rated by the World Meteorological Organisation to have the large \u2018uncertainties\u2019 up to 5\u00b0C. No less than 36.6% of records came from Class 5 sites that have no qualifying criteria for accuracy and can be located anywhere. Quite how any Class 4 and 5 site can be used to calculate a national let alone a global temperature has long been a mystery, and their central use to promote the Net Zero fantasy is a scientific and political scandal. But I looked further into the claimed records and found the overall picture was even worse than it first appeared.<\/p>\n\n\n

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

The above picture from Google Earth shows the location of the Kirkwall weather station marked in red. It is claimed to be a Class 2 site, a pristine rating with no \u2018uncertainties\u2019. The Met Office has very few of these Class 2 rated sites, with 78% of its stations to be found in the bottom two junk categories. But there is no way this is a Class 2 site. It is located at Kirkwall airport, barely 50 metres from what appears to be the aircraft park. Nearby buildings, car parks and roads provide ample opportunities for heat corruptions. Yet six times in the last nine days Kirkwall was said to hold the temperature record for Orkney and Shetland. I removed the supposedly \u2018non-junk\u2019 Kirkwall from the overall calculation with the result that no less than 87.4% of daily highs are in the junk classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course it beggars belief that on a large island comprising four different nations and wide variations in geographical locations the same old suspects keep recording the hottest daily temperatures. Was nowhere warmer for seven days in the East Midlands than Coton-in-the-Elms? What is so special about Kielder Castle that on six days it was hotter than everywhere else in North-East England? Should heat lovers in Northern Ireland and Wales move to Castlederg and Porthmadog respectively where they would have enjoyed five days of record highs? Scotland is often on the chilly side, so can we assume that house prices have a premium in Tyndrum, where in the nine days under review it only twice lost the highest temperature spot in the Central, Tayside and Fife region?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this month, citizen super sleuth Ray Sanders examined the central England Class 5 weather station at Coton-in-the-Elms and concluded: \u201cThere are worse sites \u2026 but not that many<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Late last year, Science Feedback<\/em> \u2018fact checked\u2019<\/a> articles published by both the Daily Sceptic<\/em> and Ray Sanders detailing the junk status of most of the Met Office sites and its invention of temperature data from over 100 non-existent sites. Written largely by the Met Office, the \u2018fact check\u2019 suggested that stations rated internally as \u2018Unsatisfactory\u2019 did not meet the required standards for data validity, and recordings would not be used in the official records. A recent Freedom of Information request revealed that just 27 sites had been placed on the meteorological naughty step. As they used to say in the Wild West days of the City of London, self-regulation. like self-abuse, leads to exceedingly short sight. Nevertheless if the Met Office, marking its own homework, says the 27 sites are rubbish, who are we to argue?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is therefore a surprise to see that Castlederg is on the  \u2018Unsatisfactory\u2019 list and, as noted above, it produced a recent local record five days out of nine. It is possible the list has been updated in the last few months and Castlederg has been removed. It would be interesting to discover if it was on the list on July 21st 2021, when a Northern Ireland record temperature of 31.3\u00b0C was declared at the site. Other unsatisfactory sites quoted in the last few days include Redesdale Camp and Hawarden, the latter being a Class 4 airport location that holds the national temperature record for Wales set on July 21st 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is all this relevant and important? As we have shown many times at the Daily Sceptic<\/em>, this super-heated data is fed into the mainstream to promote the political needs of Net Zero. Just one example out of many saw Justin Rowlatt from the BBC reporting last July that climate change is dramatically increasing the frequency of \u201cextreme\u201d high temperatures in the UK, \u201cnew Met Office analysis has confirmed\u201d. Rowlatt also observed that there had been a 40% increase in the number of \u201cpleasant\u201d days<\/a>, defined as around 20\u00b0C. \u201cThese changes may sound positive,\u201d wails the BBC activist-in-chief, \u201cbut the UK\u2019s shifting climate represents a dangerous upheaval for our ecosystems as well as our infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
