YOUR Record High and Record Low (places, United States, ground, forecast)

[chicagogeorge]

Closest NWS station to my home IKK

Record max: 109F/42.8C July 1936
Record low: -29F/-33.9C Jan 1985

Record max: 34.0 C Örebro on August 3, 2014 (weather station said 33.7 but that was not in the urban area).
Record low: -25.7 C Norrköping (my nearest weather station) December 23, 2010. My location more than 50 km away saw very similar temps that night. My guess? -26.0 C It usually is 0.3 degrees colder during winter nights here.

Record high may be higher since I was in the interior when Porto saw a 31 C day in June 2005, but it's unconfirmed. Deffo not above 35 C that day though.

[Ethereal]

High: 45.1°C (18 January 2013)
Low: −0.8°C (30 June 2010)

Our station has been keeping records of temperatures since 1965, and yet both extremes happened in the 2010s. Amazing.

The nearest weather station to my place is practically as old as me, it started to collect data in 1992

High: +35.5°C = 96°F (11th August 2003)*
Low: -10.9°C = 12°F (6th February 2012)*

(*I'm not completely sure about the exact day because I saved the data as monthly averages and extremes, and the website with all the daily measures today is not working. So I looked for the coldest and warmest days in these two months for a near weather station whose website today is working. I'm practically sure that the days are the same, but as soon as the website will work again I will check them.*)

Other note: the conversion is °F are rounded to the nearest integer.

Our records are quite boring.

I think I've read about the December 1894 cold snap before. One of those severe in history, I believe February 1895 had a severe cold snap as well.

Any word about the highest dew points you've had and how that translates into the heat index NOAA uses?

February 1895 was pretty cold nationwide.

In West Palm Beach the December 1894 cold snap had a day with a high of 43F and a low of 24F. The February 1895 cold snap had a day with a high of 40F and a low of 28F. Probably 1-2F warmer in Miami so both the coldest high (41-42F?) and coldest low (25-26F?) would likely have been set during this period.
