The wettest year at the wettest station in Australia.  |

Did up 2005-2009 (I may have posted 2005 before as it's shit). This period has the common trait of poor summers and warmth in general. 2006 and 2009 are very dry with 2005 being a crap year in nearly everything. One of the worst year in Perth's climatic history, awful spring and december.  Very dry with a very poor january but decent winter sunlight.  A pretty dry year with an early rainy season and excellent november.  A good summer and mixed winter  Have to give it to 2009, a very good warm jan-may before good winter rains and a terrible september; all followed by a decent, dry and sunny spring.  |

holy shit. i'm lost for words. WOW! It's not about the annual range itself, it's about the capability of the climate can go far beyond Winnipeg-type winter to Dallas-type summer.  |

Let's travel through time  2010; probably one of the years that this forum will like the most. Snowy, below-average winter, with the hottest summer of all time. Great year. That March-November period has got to be the warmest of all time in the city  Mostly an average year, except for three REALLY warm months; July, November, and December. But this year will mostly be remembered for one of the most epic days in recent history; when LGA reached an impressive 104F! And Newark recorded an insane 108F! I'd want a repeat of 2011 just to experience that again  A very very epic year, being the warmest on record until 2016 edged it out. By far the warmest March of all time, with the average highs being closer to your typical April. Aside from the rediculous March, most months were 2F to 3F above average, so the warmth was very well balanced. If this was an actual climate, I'd give it a B- rating  Alright year, not good not bad. Notorious for having an insanely humid July, as well as a very intense coldwave in November  One of the worst years in recent memory, absolutely terrible. A horrendous January-April period, with the April being colder than March 2012, and a March that resembles your average December. Weak summer devoid of any real heat, as you can see by the 93F maximum |

2003 started and finished with the same temperatures, but with a long, laggy winter. That 44.6C is a record that still stands in January, even after the famous hot spell in 2009.  |

 August is missing 3 days, september is missing 1. So if you extrapolate averages august should be around 335 hours and september should be around 318, but of course i can't add those to the calendar (both of those periods of 3 and 1 days had no rainfall and similar temperatures to days around them with average sunshine). The rest of the months without sunshine had 15-25 sun days. 2011 is the wettest year in Mount Isa, lots of storms in summer and an early start to the wet season in november. |

jgtheone that 44.6C was killed in 2009, Melbourne Airport recorded 46.8C on that day.

 Embarrass was subarctic in 2000 and 2012, and the winter of 2013-2014 was colder, but 2004 was bad all around. The worst weather year since the climate data started in the 90's. 2004 had the coldest May, June, and August on record. 244 nights with frost and an average temperature of 32.0 degrees. Summer is terrible with hardly any warm weather. June had 7 nights with frost, July 3, and August 10. The frost free period was only 22 days, from July 1 to 23.
The low on April 27th was only 4F/-16C, but the next day the high was 74F/23C, which might have been the best weather of the year. August 20th was cold, only 56/23F (13/-5C). December snow seems low...there was a high of 20F/-6C and 0.75"/17mm precipitation one day but zero snow was recorded.

Norrköping 1955. That must be the best all-round July/August combination ever (during recorded meterological history) in this region of the country (combined with 2018 of course). On the other hand, the rest of the year is slightly crazy to say the least. Granted, lows for 17 days of March were missing, but highs matched okay with the rest of the month during those days so they shouldn't be too far off. May is easily the worst I've seen down here, and that May-September seasonal lag puts Atlantic Canada to shame. There were no sunshine recordings at the time (at least in the open data) but I would reckon it to be in the 1,900's given the dry winters and the and warm-summer nature of this. Not even a year like this managed to produce any April ice days. Thoughts on that year? Babu , knot , 🖕🏿Mörön🖕🏿 ?
For me it's a C- year, managing to equal the normal year, since the twin 25's as opposed to the mediocre Augusts during a normal year weigh it up. The spring is inexcusably poor though.

Crap. Also, there's nothing special with that July-August period. A couple of degrees above average. Hardly very rare.

Wonder what the most continental year for any town in Australia is. This is a nice one but not the most continental  |

Too cold and dry during Winter; too stable during Summer (record highs too cool; record lows too warm). FAR too dry year-round...severe drought conditions! Verdict: C–; gay. |

This is a nice one but not the most continental Bathurst Gaol, NSW (704 m AMSL; 33° 25' 4.44" S) in 1878:  Gotta love the 19th Century & Early 20th Century Australian climate. The absurd record high, however, would've likely been lower at about ~43° C instead of ~45° C due to lack of Stevenson Screen. |
