Climatology prof in Exeter, Ed Hawkins,
@ed_hawkins"Central England has temperature observations every day back to 1772.
In that dataset:
- 2022 is currently the warmest year to date.
- 2022 had the warmest ever day, beating the previous record by more than 2°C."
(The Central England series is a combination of several stations; there are not single stations going back that far without interruption.)
