February temperatures

[SWC75]

Here are the actual high temperatures in Syracuse for each day February 2022 compared to the average high, (based on stats that go back to 1901) and the difference that day, + or – as well as a running deficit or surfeit. Here is the website I used for these numbers:
Accuweather now gives the actual highs but not the historical averages for each date:

https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/syracuse/13202/february-weather/329675?year=2022

I used this for the historical averages:

https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/syracuse/13202/february-weather/329675?year=2022

The numbers are the date, the actual high, the historical average high, the net difference, the cumulative net since January 1st, the numbers of days we exceeded the historical average, the number of days we didn't reach it and the number of days we tied it.

February 2022
02/01 39 – 33 = +6 = -47
02/02 44 – 33 = +11 = -36
02/03 41 – 33 = +8 = -28
02/04 20 – 33 = -13 = -41
02/05 18 – 33 = -15 = -56
02/06 32 – 33 = -1 = -57
02/07 42 – 34 = +8 = -49
02/08 35 – 34 = +1 = -48
02/09 50 – 34 = +16 = -32
02/10 45 – 34 = +11 = -21
02/11 52 – 34 = +18 = -3
02/12 45 – 34 = +11 = +8
02/13 21 – 34 = -13 = -5
02/14 17 – 34 = -17 = -22
02/15 27 – 35 = -8 = -30
02/16 50 – 35 = +15 = -15
02/17 56 – 35 = +21 = +6
02/18 46 – 35 = +11 = +17
02/19 32 – 35 = -3 = +14
02/20 43 – 35 = +8 = +22
02/21 58 – 35 = +23 = +45
02/22 60 – 36 = +24 = +69
02/23 59 – 36 = +23 = +92
02/24 29 – 36 = -7 = +85
02/25 27 – 36 = -9 = +76
02/26 29 – 36 = -7 = +69
02/27 34 – 37 = -3 = +66
02/28 24 – 37 = -13 = +53

Comments: It was a roller-coaster month, (I’ve never known why the range of temperatures in the winter is so much greater than it is in the summer), but we wound up turning a -53 degrees for the year into a +53. We ’won’ 16 days by exceeding the average high and lost 12 days by not getting to it. Now we advance toward spring, here are the big dates: the average high hits 40 on 3/7, 50 on 3/31, 60 on 4/21, 70 on 5/19 and 80 on 6/24.

Comments: March never feels warm because we are so impatient for spring but this March was a warm March. We were 19-10-2 in days and +140 in degrees. The most remarkable day was March 6th, when we were an incredible 37 degrees above the normal high. I went through each day since I started doing this back in January, 2014 and that is the second highest margin by which our actual high diff 2014 and that is the second highest margin by which our actual high diffed from our average high in that span, behind March 9, 2016 when we reached 78 degrees on a day when the average high was 40. Here are the days that were at least 30 drees from the average high:
3/9/16 78 – 40 = +38
3/6/22 75 – 38 = +37
1/11/20 67 – 35 = +36
2/25/17 71 – 36 = +35
12/24/15 68 – 34 = +34
1/12/20 65 – 31 = +34
2/23/17 69 – 36 = +33
3/11/21 73 – 41 = +32
1/12/18 62 – 31 = +31
12/21/18 65 – 34 = +31
3/9/20 71 – 40 = +31
2/20/15 5 – 35 = -30
2/14/16 4 – 34 = -30
2/24/17 68 – 38 = +30
11/22/18 16 – 46 = -30
12/16/21 67 – 37 = +30
That’s 16 days, of which 9 occur in February and March, including the incredible run from 2/23-23/17 when we were +33, +30, +35. 13 of the 16 are ‘plus’ days.
