Lowest daily maximum temperature record in your city (freezing, history, fog)

[Bottletree]

Not sure, probably mid -30s Celsius.

Yesterday(january 5) our high was -30.2 C with windchill values below -40 C.

7.8C (46F) here in Western Sydney.

23 July 1968

Somewhere around -35 C.

As someone already said, for London it is about -9C I think... that is far too cold for me.. days with highs below 0C are very rare here.. I think the lowest max this winter so far has been about 6C haha

The Official record for Norway is -49,7c 28. january 1999. The low that day was -51,2.

The map is here, though a lot of the stations don't have data, not sure why.
US COOP Station Map

nearest 3 to that 7N7 airport you mentioned are across the border:
WILMINGTON PORTER RSVR, DELAWARE - Climate Summary
MARCUS HOOK, PENNSYLVANIA - Climate Summary
WILMINGTON WSO ARPT, DELAWARE - Climate Summary


For Madison, WI, lowest max is -14F/-25.6C in February 1996 and January 1912 and 1924.
As you go north and west the values get lower, I think the contiguous US record is -39F/-39.4C in Roseau, MN in 1899.
The US record is -66F/54.4C in Ambler, AK in 1989. Canada's probably beaten that, and obviously Russia, Greenland, and Antarctica have as well.

Thanks for the link. The high of 1F / -17C for the local station on January 19, 1994 is still the lowest max temperature since 1932 for my area. Those 3 other stations were slightly warmer on that day.

Lowest max I have experienced here is 12 F (-11 C)

Lowest Max ever recorded was -2 F in 1983.

Not true. Downtown (USC)'s record is 43 F for a high on 1922-01-29, coincidentally the same day as the Knickerbocker Storm which assaulted Baltimore and Washington, DC; for Woodland Hills it is 40 F on the same calendar date in 1957, while even the Santa Monica pier has a record of 46 F on 1964-11-17. I am not going to look up the Inland Empire, but I would imagine the record to be even lower.
