Hobart is enjoying a cooler Easter weekend, but its just about to wrap up it's hottest March in 117 years of records.
If March stopped today in Hobart, the southern capital would have new March records for the warmest average minima and maxima. The cooler Easter weather may drop these figures below the previous records, however that will not stop it from breaking the combined record.
The warmest March on record was in 1990 with minima averaging 12.3 degrees and maxima averaging 22.5 to give a combined average of 34.8 degrees. This March is far warmer with a combined average of 36.9 degrees so far. By the end of the month this will probably be closer to 36, still smashing the old record.
