Eunice & Met Office Fraud

By Paul Homewood

Here’s the latest update on Eunice as at 8.00pm:

It shows more clearly than I can just how fraudulent the so-called “record” claim regarding the Needles is.

The whole idea that wind speeds there were miraculously 32 mph higher than anywhere else in the country is a self manifestly ridiculous con-trick.

And as I reported earlier, the wind speed at St Catherine’s Point, another extremely exposed location a few miles along the coast, where a lighthouse is situated, was far less at 84 mph.

No reputable organisation would even think about claiming a wind speed record at a location on the top of a 80m cliff, on a promontory stuck hundreds of yards out to sea, and with a data record of just a couple of decades. You might just as well stick a wind gauge on the top of Ben Nevis. (Or a rain gauge at the top of Honister Pass, or a thermometer next to the runway at Heathrow).

But, as we know, the Met Office is not a reputable organisation. (BTW – If Richard Betts would like to comment, I am sure readers would be delighted!)
