hmm... I'm looking at annual average temperatures averaged out for the north and south hemispheres. These data are those prepared at University of East Anglia and are the most accepted. They are based on thousands of weather stations. Your problem was getting data for your exact location but that isn't the issue here. These data are corroborated by a variety of other sources that essential give the same indication as these man-made measurements - tree rings - temperatures at different depth in boreholes - temperature records preserved in the Greenland icesheet (isotope ratios) etc. So I think they are pretty reliable. Here's my webpage if you want more info on my research etc: cres.anu.edu.au Just as you found it difficult to exactly pin down the historic climate data for a location, it is difficult to make any kind of accurate prediction for climate change at any location. But the global averages and broad trends are much easier. David
