Explanation:

Step1: Calculate increase from Jan to Feb

To find the increase, subtract January's temperature from February's: $-24.1 - (-18.6) = -24.1 + 18.6 = -5.5$ (decrease, so negative)

Step2: Calculate increase from Feb to Mar

Subtract February's from March's: $-20.5 - (-24.1) = -20.5 + 24.1 = 3.6$

Step3: Calculate increase from Mar to Apr

Subtract March's from April's: $-8.9 - (-20.5) = -8.9 + 20.5 = 11.6$

Step4: Calculate increase from Apr to May

Subtract April's from May's: $13.9 - (-8.9) = 13.9 + 8.9 = 22.8$

Step5: Calculate increase from May to Jun

Subtract May's from June's: $29.2 - 13.9 = 15.3$

Step6: Calculate increase from Jun to Jul

Subtract June's from July's: $33.9 - 29.2 = 4.7$

Step7: Calculate increase from Jul to Aug

Subtract July's from August's: $33.5 - 33.9 = -0.4$ (decrease)

Step8: Calculate increase from Aug to Sep

Subtract August's from September's: $25.2 - 33.5 = -8.3$ (decrease)

Step9: Calculate increase from Sep to Oct

Subtract September's from October's: $8.1 - 25.2 = -17.1$ (decrease)

Step10: Calculate increase from Oct to Nov

Subtract October's from November's: $-6.4 - 8.1 = -14.5$ (decrease)

Step11: Calculate increase from Nov to Dec

Subtract November's from December's: $-11.9 - (-6.4) = -11.9 + 6.4 = -5.5$ (decrease)

Answer:

May
