May warmer than August
There has been only two instances when May has been warmer than the
following August

1848 May 13.9 Aug 13.6
1833 May 15.1 Aug 14.3

Source: TWO.

My Comment:

I did not realise that this had ever been recorded. What
dreadful summers those must have been. 13.6C for an August CET. These days
we take for granted an August CET of at least 16C or more. Perhaps we
shouldn't :-)
