The Climate of Northern Scotland since 2000

Dear Diary,
I thought that I would take a quick look at what the climate has been doing since 2000 closer to home by means of 12 month moving averages of the gridded climate data for the North of Scotland and which I download from the Met OfficeUKMO The Meteorological Office is the United Kingdom's national weather service. It is an executive agency and trading fund of the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. Mean temperatures have edged fractionally warmer in the last 20 years, whilst annual precipitation has slightly decreased by 6mm per decade, sunshine has increased by 15 hours per decade. Nothing for Greta ThunbergGreta Thunberg Greta Tintin Eleonora Ernman Thunberg (born 3 January 2003) is a Swedish environmental activist who is known for challenging world leaders to take immediate action for climate change mitigation to get overly worked up about there then, but linear trends can be deceptive though, and I really should have used a thirty, and not a twenty year period, but what the hell, no one is reading this anyway.
