Remarks
A very cold month, second only to Feb 2010 in my 10-year record. Despite the cold it was a very sunny month and also rather dry and with near average snowfall. The maximum temperature of -4.2°on the 28thwas, by a considerable margin, the lowest daily max that I have recorded in February. The previous lowest was -0.7° on 3rd Feb 2009
