Explanation:

Step1: Calculate temperature increase for each month

For Feb: $- 19.7-(-23.5)=3.8$; For Mar: $-20.3 - (-19.7)= - 0.6$; For Apr: $-8.9-(-20.3) = 11.4$; For May: $10.2-(-8.9)=19.1$; For Jun: $28.3 - 10.2 = 18.1$; For Jul: $33.6-28.3 = 5.3$; For Aug: $32.3-33.6=-1.3$; For Sep: $26.2 - 32.3=-6.1$; For Oct: $8.1 - 26.2=-18.1$; For Nov: $-6.3 - 8.1=-14.4$; For Dec: $-11.2-(-6.3)= - 4.9$

Step2: Compare the increases

We have the increases: $3.8,-0.6,11.4,19.1,18.1,5.3,-1.3,-6.1,-18.1,-14.4,-4.9$. The largest value is $19.1$ which corresponds to the month - May.
