Weather records for cities all over the world that show the record high and low temperature for the date are easily available. I am looking for something else. I want to find out the what is the record low maximum temperature by date by city.
Here is an example: This afternoon it is suppose to max out at about 32 degrees in Washington DC. That is in the peak temp of the afternoon. It is March 24th and I never remember an afternoon being so cold so late in the month of March in Washington DC. It must be some type of record. I know the morning low was not a record but we may have a record for the lowest afternoon peak temperature.
The TV Weathermen never talk about the records for the record low maximum temps for the date. I find it strange because the low temp impacts you less because it is usually at 4:00 AM when many of us are sleeping. But the afternoon temp being 35 degrees below average, that really impacts us.
Choose the location, then go to "climatology for a day". The year range is set to 2000-2014 by default, so in order to get the full list of records you just replace the year "2000" with "por".
Wish my country was as enthusiastic about statistics as the US. To find out that info here I'd have to check the records manually for each individual year.
I use this as a reference: SOD USA Climate Archive State Selection Map
Click on any state and you'll have a fairly exhaustive list of weather stations. Click on any one of them and you can get all manner of weather stats including record low maxima.

Can you help me find these records?
The max temp never stayed under 33F after the 24th of March. Washington hit 36F today. Essentially you were right that it rarely stayed that cold this late... looks like late 1800s early 1900s it did a lot.. Use link Infamous92 provided.

NowData is the best site to use per Office and they revamped it. Looks good.
I checked the sites out. What really hit me is how up and down the weather is in March and April. When it goes from 70 on Sunday to 40 on Monday the TV Weathermen tell us that this is so unusual and act like sudden temperature drops like this never have happened before. Maybe they are trying to create ratings by hyping the change, but they must know that rapid changes from warm to cold is quite common in the Spring.

Daily Almanac serves that purpose better, IMO, and requires less input.

You're right.
