Standard Deviation from Mean over the same period, see link

Thanks. Very interesting, though I'm not sure that I could draw any
conclusions from it.

I thought it was interesting too!

But what is noticeable is that this cold winter with a standard
deviation of 2.4 is unique in the last 10 years, much as the warm
summer in 1976 was unique in the 1970s. Once in ten year events do
happen!
