As old as Europe is, records only go back to 1961??

I was curious about that too, and AI told me this-

Spain’s national weather records do go back much further than 1961, but the State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) uses 1961 as the baseline for its official homogeneous national climate series. This specific starting point represents the moment Spain achieved a wide, dense, and uniform network of reliable weather stations across the entire territory.

 

I was surprised too. I don’t have the best internet connection at times so I thought it might be wrong. Thanks, @CAPE for researching.
