February - Hobart, Tasmania

This was the coolest February since 2011 with a mean anomaly of -0.9c below 1981-2010 or -0.7c below 1961-1990. No relief from the very dry weather of the past year.

Mean maximum:  20.8 ( -1.3 )

Mean minimum:  12.1 ( -0.5 )

Rainfall:  16mm ( average 39mm )

Rain days ( +1mm ) :  7/from 14

A chilly end to summer with high pressure centered mostly to the south of Tasmania. High pressure approaching from the south west brought cool southerly winds and high pressure centered to the south brought onshore easterly winds. These easterly winds delivered a long string of dull days with low lying cloud and drizzle patches, mostly over the hills. Winds tended warmer subtropical n/e'ly on the 14th ahead of a front at night. This front produced 3.4mm which was the months wettest day. Toward the end of February a shift of high pressure north, to be centered over and to the east of Tasmania with sunnier skies and warmer northerly winds off the continent with temperature climaxing on the 25th. A cold front brought a few showers on the 26th with a dusting of snow overnight to 1200m asl. High pressure building to the east at the end of the month returned the warmth and sunshine.

Extremes in daily temperature for February ( records since 1883 ) :

February 2020: For Perth, Scotland 

Exceptionally wet, wettest recorded month also rather mild 

 

This was by far the wettest February in my 26 year record by far beating the February of 2002 by almost 100mm!! Also the amount of rain days was at at its highest as well. Even more shocking is that it beat the December of 2015 with its Rainfall. The month was also quite mild although there was a few colder days towards the end of the month. It was  quite snowy month as well although snowfalls were very short lived. Despite the rain it was quite a sunny month.

I saw a local weather station report 750mm rain here in February, I know i was an exceptionally wet month, but think the reading is suspect. Anyone have any stats for Lake District rainfall wise in February.
