I didn't bother with Feb 29th, as calculating the mean would have been
too fiddly to be worthwhile.

I've already commented on January in another post. February shows a
tendency to be a bit colder between about the 11th and 20th, giving some
credence to the Buchan cold spell (which the singularity work of Brooks
and Lamb I believe also identified). The last week is notably milder.

December shows a tendency for a relative cold period from about the 8th
to 12th. It then cools down again from about the 19th. There's no sign
of a post-Christmas mild spell, though, with the 25th to 31st being the
coldest part of the month. I suspect that the mean for the last 100
years only might show very different trends.
