For the folks in Minnesota (or similar places in the mid-west US) it
doesn't sound impressive.

However, in The Netherlands, a country with a very moderate climate,
it is! On the morning of March 4th a temperature of -20.7 C was
recorded as a national low. Today a national high of 21.7 C was
rercorded. A swing of over 42 degrees Celsius.

It is a new national record - this temperature swing within a calender
month.

Evert, I'm not sure what you mean.. do you mean that the 21.7C was the
highest max. ever recorded for March? At what station because according
to my data Gilze-Rijen reported 20.9C (which is still quite nice).
Regarding to the absolute highest max, De Bilt reported 21.8C on
1989-03-28. Gilze-Rijen reported 22.1C on the that day.

But indeed, yesterday was a nice day..

Richard, Evert means the 'temperature swing" within a calendar month is a
new national record. Meaning the range between ms 20.7 °C and + 21.7 °C.

It is quite extraordinairy, yes, And we sure had a lovely day .

Overcast right now -- however sun's trying to peep through!!

It seems fairly clear to me. I think that Evert is saying that 42.4C is
the greatest temperature range ever recorded in the Netherlands within a
single calendar month.
