For Cantley, Doncaster

A month when basic statistics do not show what really occurred!

The Mean temperature was exactly the same as the 20+ year average. However there were 14 days within that having a mean of 2.1 C and 8 in that period giving a mean of 0.2 C. It snowed on 5 days and lay for 9 days at 0900. Only slight falls with a maximum of 2 cm. A pretty wet month with over double the average.

2018 was the last February as cold.

Mean=5.6 (5.6)

Avge Max=8.7 (8.6) with the highest daytime value being 17.1 on 24 th and the coldest day 0.3 on 13 th

Avge Min=2.6 (2.5) The coldest night was-5.6 on 11 th and the warmest night 12.6 on 24th

Rainfall was 81.2 mm with the wettest day giving 28.6 on 6 th, there were 15 days with 0.2 or more and 11 with 1.0 or more. (This data includes snow melt) but NOT the wettest day which was rain.

5 days (3) with falling snow and 9 (3) lying at 0900, no hail or thunder, 2 mornings with fog (3)

Air frost 10 (8) and 11 (13) ground frosts

February - Hobart, Tasmania

This was the wettest February for 10 years with a mean temperature anomaly of +0.1c above 1991-2020, or +0.5c above 1961-1990.

Mean maximum:  22.4   ( +0.2 )

Mean minimum:   12.9   ( +0.1 )

Rainfall:   52mm   ( average 39mm )

Rain days ( +1mm ) :   3/from total 8

41mm fell on the night of the 5th - the bulk of the month's rain - as low pressure developed over the Great Australia Bight, rain feeding down in a muggy north-westerly airflow. The low lost its influence on its southward trajectory toward Tasmania, as cooler drier air began to feed through from the south. Another 7mm in a prefrontal rain band late on the 12th. Overwhelmingly calm and dry this month with southern latitude high pressure bringing a fair degree of cloudiness; with onshore winds from the southeast then east. Warmer and sunnier episodes with high pressure to the south east and a mainland airflow down Australia's eastern side, but this brought slightly elevated humidity.
