Another look at the number of accidents vs. month, but for the warm-weather states.

Note that the plots are "flatter," the coming of summer is a bit less obvious. Wonder if the Florida spike in April might be due to traffic to Sun-N-Fun....?

Let's look at the statistics for Wisconsin...

BIG spike at Oshkosh time! Of course, though, it's also the best flying weather for that area, so the rate would increase in any case.

What I thought was interesting is the result in December....no Wisconsin EAB accidents in the month of December from 1998 through 2017! There was one in December 2018.....
