U.K. weather office caught deleting inconvenient climate data
COMMENTARY
By Editorial Board - The Washington Times - Friday, October 10, 2025
OPINION:
It is becoming harder to get away with lying in the age of independent media. Progressives in particular are struggling to safeguard the sacred belief that the planet is on the verge of melting because naughty plebeians keep driving SUVs and using air conditioning.
Climate change devotees are willing to lie to defend this article of faith. Ray Sanders, an engineer by trade, realized this as he double-checked the calculations of the Met Office, the U.K. government agency responsible for guessing whether it will rain in Blighty tomorrow.
The Met is also known for making bold prognostications about the conditions expected half-a-century from now. “Heatwaves, like that of summer 2018, are now 30 times more likely to happen due to climate change,” it asserts.
Mr. Sanders investigated each location the Met relied upon to gather temperature readings in making its assertion. He found a bit of mischief that would skew readings, such as thermometers placed in the middle of a parking lot or surrounded by a heat-generating solar panel farm.
That’s nothing compared to his conclusion that a third of the 302 stations used to compute the country’s average temperature didn’t exist. The Met’s public website included 103 climate stations as the basis for the nationwide average, even though these had closed years or decades ago.
To make up for the shortfall, the Met says it created “comparable data” from up to six nearby sites that were “well correlated” to the original spot. Mr. Sanders took a seaside town called Lowestoft to question the validity of this method. The only viable “comparable” regions would be located more than 25 miles distant—far from the ocean breeze.
Rather than admit error, the Met stealthily removed the “Lowestoft” readings recorded after the building’s 2010 closure. It has done likewise with closed stations in Paisley and Nairn.
That didn’t stop the usual fact-checking organizations from condemning Mr. Sanders as a purveyor of misinformation. Each dutifully pointed to prestigious scientific organizations praising the Met and all its works.
