November 1965 had 11 days with snow cover in Aberdeen (15th and
21st-30th) - the highest of any post-war November. The only month to
have as many as 11 days of lying snow, since 1987, has been February
2001 with 13 days.

A max of just 1C was recorded on the 21st, 22nd, 24th, 25th,26th and
29th Nov 1965 and an air frost was recorded on 13 nights during the
month.

February 1966 was a very interesting month because there was a severe
spell in Scotland with the thermometer falling below -20C in
Aberdeenshire. At the same time parts of S.E. England had no air frost
during the month!
