I am not on a device conducive to making climate boxes (will probably put some here when I get the chance), but my Southeast US list has had some remarkable warmth!
Besides a lack of frost like I was talking about on the last frost thread, Cfa places as far north as North Florida and South Georgia/Alabama have had average highs as warm as or warmer than the average February highs of tropical South Florida places, in the 23-27C range, and locations all across the list set multiple record highs too. Best non frost related weather monitoring since the Southeast's historically warm December 2021.
This month in Perth has been slightly warmer than average and much drier as there was no rainfall at all while the average is 2 days for the month. In terms of Sunshine it is again bang on average. Basically a hot, sunny, dry month in Perth typical of it's summers anyway so nothing too exciting
Yes... needs mentioning in title. Frostless February. Another month, another record. And (for anti-polar foamers like me), a good record. FEBRUARY... here at 54°N.... with NO frost, and NO snow. Nada, not a single day. How often does that happen huh? Well, NEVER m8. Until 2023. Not only that, but as well as being mild it was also sunny, and also dry. 8.5mm of rain? Uh huh. What happened here then? Well just look at the super high pressure anomaly.... that's what happened. Euro heights most of the way through. Gotta say I have no complaints. None at all. Great month.
