2007 is my warmest year on record (since 1991)

My annual mean is 11.2C, which is exactly the same as 2006.

The annual mean min & max a

2007: 6.6C 15.9C
2006: 7.2C 15.1C

Despite a lousy summer, this year's mean max is much higher but a prevalence
of calm, starry nights throughout the year has lead to some very low
minimums when compared to the much warmer nights of 2006. Being in a valley
and about 6 miles from the warming influence of the sea does lower my
minimums somewhat under these conditions.

What is even more remarkable regarding this year's warmth is that it
occurred under strong La Nina conditions. I suspect that 2008 will be even
warmer, especially if La Nina weakens.
