Climate Fraud: Met Office Caught FAKING 4O°C 'Record Temperature' Claim

The Met Office is no longer a weather forecasting agency—it's a mouthpiece for climate change propaganda. Entirely compromised. The fact that its current head once led the MOD’s Cyber Warfare Unit should tell you everything you need to know.
Once you understand how laughably easy it was to fake the so-called “record temperature” of 40.3°C, you’ll realise just how deep the deception goes.
On the afternoon of July 19th, 2022, the BBC triumphantly declared that the UK had hit a new ‘record high’ temperature—concrete proof, they said, of climate change in action. The Met Office claimed a reading of 40.3°C at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire. This figure was instantly treated as gospel and has since been parroted endlessly by the BBC, embedding it into climate change mythology. But as we show here, it was a brazen fraud, engineered to create the illusion of a warming climate where none exists.
According to standards set by the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), four out of the five UK stations that reported temperatures over 40°C that day are subject to margin-of-error uncertainties of up to 1°C. That includes the infamous 40.3°C reading—taken from a sensor placed just feet from the runway at RAF Coningsby, a temperature sensor directly in the exhaust path of fighter jets taking off.
The temperature station there recorded the 40.3°C spike at exactly 3:12pm, following a sudden 0.6°C jump in just two minutes. Just one minute later, the reading dropped back to 39.7°C. That “record” lasted for 60 seconds.
RAF Coningsby, notably, houses two squadrons of Typhoon jets, and the thermometer in question was sited right next to the runway, perfectly positioned to catch the superheated blast of their engines.
Research published by the climate blog Cliscep maps three concentric circles (10m, 30m, and 100m) around the Coningsby station, based on WMO classifications. The station fails to meet Class 2 standards due to surrounding hardstanding within 30 metres, and instead falls into Class 3—with a possible margin of error up to 1°C.
All five temperature sites used by the Met Office to support their “record-breaking” narrative showed signs of heat contamination from non-climatic sources. Cliscep noted that finding a clean, uncontaminated temperature station is rare—but not impossible. One such station exists in Harpenden, completely free of human-made heat sources within 100 metres. While Coningsby allegedly hit 40.3°C, Harpenden topped out at a more plausible 37.8°C.
Let’s talk about those Typhoons. Each jet uses two turbofan engines generating 90kN of thrust, capable of launching the aircraft from zero to twice the speed of sound in under 30 seconds. On take-off, these engines heat the air to more than 1,700°C (3,092°F)—blasting that superheated air behind the aircraft. And right in that blast radius sits the Met Office thermometer that gave us Britain’s “hottest day ever.”
You’re being played.
