Without the extraordinary winter
1939/40 (DJF) the shown temperature Europe would be indicated significantly
higher then the long term mean. The summer 1940 was regarded very sunny and
fairly hot. There might be some logic in the combination of cold winter and
hot summer in Northern Europe, but it would complicate the investigation on
the influence of naval war on the ‘average weather’ many fold. The summer
season, or summer months are therefore not further commended.
