Has there ever been a January with *non-stop* mild, wet weather?
In fact we have never had a January here without any AF here, the
lowest incidence being 2 in 1916 and 1983.
Same here Steve, air frost in every January since my records began in
1960.
Looking at my average snow records I was quite amazed how January seems
to be getting much less in recent years.
