In East Asia at this latitude maybe its possible in Japan,but not In China/South Korea, winters are harsh for Jacarandas,look the january temperature for Qingdao :
I love these journals, it makes mention of Raleigh setting it's June record low. Apparently there was a stout west coast Ridge and rapid intensification of an East Coast trough. Cambium you might want to check them out as they talk about upper level patterns also.
I still wonder how 38 in June is even possible. Though doesn't seem like it was just Raleigh as Atlanta recorded 39. The low was recorded in 1977 which was a very dry June after a dry bitter winter. Makes sense actually that we got so cold.
The 39F in Atlanta happened in 1889. Strangely, in both months one dropped 10 degrees lower than the other.

Must've been a west coast ridge. I checked Phoenix's data for June 1977 and the lowest low that month was 70°, and more importantly, the monthly high was 104° and the monthly low was 78° which is normal now, but was several degrees above normal back in 77 when we had much less UHI
I was in Raleigh in June 2008 when highs were 100F+ for 4 days and also in late July last year when nearly every day was 95F+. No bueno. And being summer I could see a pattern like that holding for a whole month.
I'd forgotten about that heat wave. But now I remember being in the fourth grade and it hadn't gotten very hot until the last week of school, when we got that major heat wave. I remember being impressed by how I would start sweating after only a minute or two outside.
Whats my least favorite storm track? Come on. You know by now. Lake cutters
Interesting note here... usually this time of year warm fronts stop south of NYC but they say with a strong storm going from plains to great Lakes to Quebec it might push up through into us.

Meanwhile...low pressure over the central Plains on Monday will
track towards the Great Lakes as the impulse from the Pacific NW
dives through the northern US. This will result in a fairly
strong area of low pres over the Great Lakes Tue night. A warm
front will lift up from the south...although climatology
suggests that it will become hung up over or just S of the local
area until Wed when it can be dragged through the area as the
parent low tracks through SE Canada. The 00z EC depicts this
well. A cold front will follow Wed night. Soundings suggest that pcpn starts as snow...transitions to a wintry mix and then
changes to rain...although timing of this is uncertain since
it`s a day 5 forecast. Drier conditions return for Thu with high
pres building back in.
Yay.. another snow to rain event this winter. Tuesday
