In a dusty corner of the Met Office archives in Exeter, a box of faded journals sat untouched for nearly a century. They were neither digital nor scanned, and their authors were long gone. Their pages smelled of mildew and damp paper, their ink blurred by time. To most, they seemed obsolete—a relic of a slower, analogue Britain. But inside those pages was something startling: the most complete hand-written account of British weather patterns between 1830 and 1910, recorded with obsessive detail by lighthouse keepers, amateur meteorologists, and naval officers.
