Notes:

(1) The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) defines climatological standard normals as averages of climatological data computed for the following consecutive periods of 30 years: 1 January 1901 to 31 December 1930, 1 January 1931 to 31 December 1960, 1 January 1961 to 31 December 1990, 1 January 1991 to 31 December 2020 etc.

t These extreme values are for the period 1884-1939; 1947–2001.
