Last year was the warmest on record in the Isle of Man
The annual mean temperature was 10.98 Celsius, beating the previous record of 10.93, in 2006.
The ten warmest years on record have all occurred since 1995.
Forecaster Dr Alan Hiscott says it's important not to confuse predictions and causes, but warming is happening, on the Island and on a global scale:
