Good one. Just shows, in spite of the repeated mildness of recent (since
1989) January's, we've still some way to go to break some long standing
records in there! Closer with the February's though, although the two warmer
ones are very long standing. Perhaps the gloom & doom about the end of
winter for the forseable future is overdone somewhat.

The January data from Holland. Up to 1899 it is the so called
"Labrijn reeks", after that the data from De Bilt. The range is not
homogeneous. However, it gives you a nice idea.

snip Thank you, Evert. It would be nice to compare all the given data.
There must be some similarities. Nice job for X-mas days. Maybe I'll go for
it in a lost hour :-).

Very interesting. Severe months seem to be much colder in Holland than
in the UK. It's surprising how much difference 100 or so kilometres of
sea can make.

Which is the earliest year for which you've included data?

Some individual stations can, of course, match or beat extremes at
both ends of the table. Although Oxford seems to have records going
back to only 1852, its extreme January means are +7.7 (1916) and -3.0
(1963). In the latter case, the mean maximum was -0.2 and mean min
-5.8. Lucky Oxford!
