class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In my recent review of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tallbloke.wordpress.com\/2025\/10\/15\/barkston-heath-airfield-no-identifier-number-met-office-making-up-a-weather-stations-data-you-certainly-cannot-see-it\/\">Barkston Heath Airfield<\/a>&nbsp;I noted that despite appearing in \u201cDaily Extremes\u201d none of the site\u2019s data was archived or visible in any way to the general public directly from the Met Office. In that review I referred to my previous review of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tallbloke.wordpress.com\/2025\/07\/24\/gosport-fleetlands-dcnn5660-rotor-wash\/\">Gosport<\/a>&nbsp;where exactly the same situation prevailed. Yet now Gosport is reporting the daily extreme highest national temperature. How sure can the public actually be that such figures are accurate when there is no public access to the site nor public record. This warranted further investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Worrying issues at Gosport include the military nature of the site with the very largest of helicopters \u2013 Chinnok \u2013 based at the site and almost certainly passing overhead of the temperature sensors. Exhaust heat and rotor-wash are well known phenomena with a significant likelihood of adversely affecting readings accuracy. Clicking on the hyperlink for Gosport offers this below for Thorney Island plus the suggestion of looking for other nearby places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"723\" height=\"146\" data-attachment-id=\"409566\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=409566\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?fit=1270%2C257&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1270,257\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?fit=723%2C146&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?resize=723%2C146&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Screenshot of the Met Office website displaying observations for Thorney Island, West Sussex, with a note about its proximity to Gosport Fleetlands.\" class=\"wp-image-409566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?resize=1024%2C207&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?resize=300%2C61&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?resize=768%2C155&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?resize=1200%2C243&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-444.png?w=1270&amp;ssl=1 1270w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Firstly, it must be remembered that a modern Platinum Resistance Thermometer (PRT) is very rapidly responsive to temperature changes. Former Liquid in Glass Thermometers (LIGT) were much slower to respond and were very much&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/tallbloke.wordpress.com\/2024\/12\/31\/is-the-meteorological-offices-metrology-as-good-as-they-claim\/comment-page-1\/\">less likely to respond to brief transient heat bursts<\/a>&nbsp;specifically aviation effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Met Office PRT readings protocol is to take readings every 15 seconds, add 4 consecutive readings together and divide by 4 to provide 1,440 daily averaged readings i.e. one every minute. The maximum and minimum of each day is then added together and divided by 2 to provide a daily meteorological \u201cmean\u201d. This \u201cextremes only\u201d system is therefore highly responsive to any tiny change in these extremes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Met Office has reported a national daily high of 18.5\u00b0C for 16th October 2025 at Gosport. I shall investigate via those \u201cother nearby locations\u201d to ascertain just how sure the public actually can be this is a real natural temperature reading or alternatively some unnatural artificial event.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/weatherobs.com\/\">Weatherobs.com<\/a>&nbsp;offers site readings for Gosport on the hour. The maximum reported figure was only 17.1\u00b0C at 12:00 GMT. Readings either side were 15.75\u00b0C at 11:00 and 16.15\u00b0C at 14:00. Mysteriously (as is so often the case) the potentially peak time of 13:00 reading is missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"723\" height=\"466\" data-attachment-id=\"409568\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=409568\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?fit=1135%2C732&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1135,732\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?fit=723%2C466&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?resize=723%2C466&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Weather data report for Gosport, Fleetlands displayed with temperature and humidity graphs, including max, min, and average temperatures, wind speeds, and visibility statistics.\" class=\"wp-image-409568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?resize=1024%2C660&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?resize=300%2C193&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?resize=768%2C495&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-445.png?w=1135&amp;ssl=1 1135w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The situation here is that the maximum reading of 18.5\u00b0C is very much higher than those available readings but could well have occurred within that two hour gap period from midday onwards.
