That figure caught my eye. The coldest year in the whole CET record was
1740, with almost exactly that mean: 6.84C. Your figure for Copley shows
the effect that going one or two hundred miles north and a couple of
hundred metres higher has.

Hi, John,

and at Braemar, if I remember correctly, 6.8C would be slightly above
normal!!
The fascinating UK climate.
