The Scandal of the Scottish Met Office Station Still Providing Temperature Figures Six Decades After it Closed
Watts Up With That? [Unofficial]
April 3, 2026
Whatever is going on, the Met Office removed the Lowestoft invented data from 2010. Perish the thought that anyone should think this station as an infilling “well-correlated neighbouring station” – or not as the case may be – would cascade fake figures throughout databases using modelled temperature information, corrupting the ‘records’ as it went. Conveniently added at the time to the public explanation on the historic database was a short note that read: “The purpose of this webpage is to provide a sample of historical station data across the UK for general interest. It is not used for formal climate monitoring.”
