Last year was by far the warmest across England since records began nearly 350 years ago.
Meteorologist Gareth Harvey of Meteogroup said today that average daily temperatures in 2006 set a new record "by a long way."
The average daily temperature, based on readings from a number of meteorological stations, was 10.9 Centigrade (for luddites like me: that's 51.62 in real money).
So 2006 was significantly warmer than the previous hotspot year on record - 1990, when an average daily temperature of 10.67C (51.2F) was recorded.
Mr Harvey predicts there could be more warm years on the way with most forecasts agreed on a rising temperature trend over the next 10-15 years.

Global Warming alarmism is a fraud.
Not because there might not be some small amount of human-induced warming.
BUT because there is not the slightest evidence of the likelihood of CATASTROPHIC warming.
This planet is hard-wired for catastrophic COOLING.
Catastrophic COOLING!
Catastrophic cooling ONLY.
Its a one-way bias and because of this one-way bias any warming we can cause is a good thing and any cooling a bad thing and this could not be more obvious.
