    "description": "A fully-sourced dataset on how the climate of the Lake District has changed since Wainwright wrote his Pictorial Guides (1955-1966), and what is projected. Long-run temperature, rainfall and air-frost come from the Met Office HadUK-Grid areal series for the England NW & N Wales district - the tightest official region that contains the Lake District. Records, attribution, impacts and projections are attributed to their publishers. Every figure carries a value, a period, a basis, a baseline where relevant, a confidence and a source.",

This is a gridded, area-averaged product for a district far larger than the fells - it is NOT a summit-observed record. Treat it as the regional climate the fells sit within, not the weather on any single top.",
    "baseline_note": "Two standard baselines are used. The 1961-1990 normal is the older WMO reference; the 1991-2020 normal is the current one. 'Normal-vs-normal' change compares those two 30-year averages. Some figures also compare the most recent decade (2016-2025) with the decade Wainwright was writing (1956-1965) - labelled as such every time. A single year is weather, not climate.",
