🌵 show their anger in different ways – they have much more subtle forms of communication than OY !!!
Cambridge Airport is tiny, there are no commercial services so it’s used for private jets and general aviation only. Grand total of three departures today, all of which will be small planes. I don’t see it having any effect on temperature readings at all.
Charterhall has now broken the record in Scotland.
That’s Charterhall, right by RAF Charterhall.
Value Is EverythingThank goodness all this apparent climate change alarmism is really just down to the proliferation of airports near temperature gauges – I’d been a bit worried for a bit.

I don’t know if anyone is aware of this but these cities have airports too
Here’s a quiz question
Can anyone name any other towns or cities that have an airport?
Coningsby has topped Heathrow with 40.3 – yes, that’s where RAF Coningsby is based.
You’re never far from an airport of some description – global warming crisis averted, polar ice caps reforming as we speak: hurrah!

What would you say influences local temperatures more: intermittent blasts of heat from aircraft taxiing/taking-off/landing or the more constant heat generated by near-continuous road transport and/or that from buildings, resulting in well-documented urban ‘heat islands’
I’d proffer that airports, being flat, rural and exposed to the elements provide a rather more accurate guide to general ambient temperature than would records gleaned from a weather station placed, say, in the middle of Piccadilly Circus
The highest ever recorded temperature was 56.7 Celsius, recorded at Death Valley.
The nearest airport, Las Vegas McCarran, is 120 miles away.
Hawarden Airport/ Aerodrome tends to vie for the highest temperature in Wales. Doubt if that’s anything to do with aviation activity there.
Temperatures seem to have peaked and once more the the Met Office got it correct with 40C max whilst the BBC’s forecast of 41-42C was again excessive
39C was the maximum reached here in York (actually at the former RAF Church Fenton airfield just down the road) and it’s now slipped back to 33C
Better put the thermal underwear on tomorrow
Of course the temperature is hot, the hottest ever, Drone.
Just that with so many of the hottest spots so near to airports it suggests something at or around airports is adding to how high those temperatures really are.
ie With so many hot spots around airports it’s probably an artificially high level. Take the planes away and you’d get a slightly less hot temperature.
These are not average temperatures, it only needs for it to hit that temperature momentarily for it to register. Easily manipulated by something giving off heat.Hawarden recorded Wales’s top temperature – an airport.
Charlwood I believe also topped the lists for a short time – right next to Gatwick.Value Is EverythingWhen I stepped out of the airport at Tenerife it was really hot so ginger is right

I’d been wondering if GT had gone bonkers in the heat – many thanks to Dr Drone for running some tests to verify.
Still 31 degrees here, even though it’s raining – I’m just off to look for the offending airport, there’s got to be one round here somewhere.
