Variable Total
Average Temperature, mean (SD), °C −2.36, 10.90
Temperature Range, °C 67.70
Lowest Temperature, °C −45.80
Highest Temperature, °C  + 21.90
Temperature Quartiles, Q1, Q2, Q3, °C −8.70, −0.70, + 6.00
Individual Days Below Threshold, n (%) 42749 (0.04%)

Study years 1961–2011. The temperatures are expressed in degree Celsius and represent the mean of all daily values in the home coordinates of the cases for the periods of interest. SD, standard deviation; Q1, 25th percentile; Q2, 50th percentile, Q3, 75th percentile; Cold spell, ≥ 3 consecutive days below the personal threshold temperature.
