Smithers in 1950. January is probably the coldest month on record there. Nice summer that year though.  |

January is 18C below average, that has to be the coldest ever. Highest of just -11 is extreme. Pretty dry year too

I think I can safely cross off Prince Rupert, BC as a place to move to... The climate overall is suicidal but that JJA is downright evil.  |

February snow stats: 5th: 42cm 6th: 109cm 109 is a good monthly total, incredible for a daily total. How did they see 180cm but only 49mm? The snow ratio doesn't make sense. |

Hunters Hill 2003. Very warm and dry summer, then remaining warm and dry until winter which lags up until the end of October, then warms up again right away. Crazy that it manages 22C means at almost 1000m asl in Victoria.  |

Here are our coldest, hottest, driest and wettest years: Hottest (2012):  Driest (1966):  Wettest** (1923):  Coldest (1912):  **—1961 was actually the wettest year but it has no data for December 1966 is actually a BWk year, so that’s 14 theoretically possible climate classifications. |

January 1950 is incredibly cold, it looks like somewhere out of Siberia. I didn't know that was possible, the January average on Wikipedia is -13.9, so it never reached the average high for an entire month.And it was about 20 degrees below normal for the entire month! Wow. Yep, those temperatures would be considered below average even in many parts of Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. In fact, the mean temperature for January 1950 in Saskatoon is exactly equal to the 30-year January mean temperature for Alert, Nunavut, which is at 82 degrees north and has had zero sunshine for a couple months by the time January rolls around. Pretty ridiculous levels of cold...  I looked for Alert climate data since they could possibly be warmer than Saskatoon, but Environment Canada only goes back to summer 1950 there. Eureka has low temps only but the average low was -44C so I doubt Alert was milder than Saskatoon. Resolute CARS was -34/-40. Isachsen -36/-42. |

1943 was an exciting year! Warmest month Feb, followed by Mar (drought during those two months), then cooling dramatically once Apr hits; descending into a very cold and snowy winter. Unfortunately, Pilot Hill didn't have daily precip data for 1943 (but Carabost did).   |

Red Hill State Forest in 1968; epic February! May was also epic, with a good winter. High continentality (23° C difference in annual range i.e. between Feb and Jul max temps). Feb had the following: 21.1° / 40.0° C on the 01, and 21.1° / 41.1° C on the 02 …@ 640 m AMSL (!)  |

Farther north than my usual climate boxes: Forbes in far western NSW. The station at Camp Street has the most complete record of any other in the Central West, so I decided to do the fabled 1900 and 1901 pair. 1900 saw a daily snowfall of 25 cm on 05 Jul, which is remarkable for only 240 m @ 33° S. Incredibly, an 11 ft (3.3 m) snowdrift was registered at nearby Molong (600 m AMSL), which after melting, caused the Lachlan River to rise 36 ft in just under 24 hrs! However, Aug was average, and Jun significantly above average. Summer was considerably above average, especially in Feb.  1901 had a much colder winter overall (by averages); with several smaller snowfalls spread over each winter month, as opposed to a single heavy fall. Summer was chiefly above average, but only slightly. Greater continentality than 1900—mean maxima ranged almost 25° C (!) between Feb and Jun.  |

Mount Buffalo Chalet in 1943; tremendously snowy! Pretty much the exact same pattern as Bago (Pilot Hill) RE rainfall and temps—but 1° poleward and an extra 200 m altitude. We're talking easy 6+ m (20+ ft) of annual snowfall with such a temp and precip combo…and it's only 1,350 m (4,400 ft). Pretty striking how much gnarlier the winters can be in Central Victoria compared to Western NSW—can only imagine 1901 down there.  |

The 1956 La Nina in Mildura. February being 2C above average is a nice touch, otherwise quite remarkably below average. Most months here are 2C or more below average, and this is the coldest annual maximum temp (22.3C) that the airport station has recorded. Edit: Despite that, this would be an A+ year in Melbourne, lol. I'd be very happy with this.  |

Below to above making 2006 a very skewed year in Stavanger. Sep is almost 4C warmer than June, and Oct is 6C warmer than Apr.  |

Yeah it's more dramatic than Utö 2011:

London 1991. A very cold February, May and June. September recording the warmest day of the year, and not a single day reaching 30c. A very strange year overall.  |
