Port Macquarie's weather extremes
The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Port Macquarie has recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do. This station's daily record ended in 2022, so these are historical extremes from that period, not records updated to today.
The four kinds of extreme
The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest single days Port Macquarie has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

The three most extreme on record

How hot and cold it gets, month by month
The shaded band is the normal range of daily temperatures for each month. The dots show the most extreme it has ever been — so you can see how far beyond a normal day the records really sit.
Port Macquarie's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — February's 116°F is about 34°F beyond a normal hot afternoon. Its record cold is just as far below a normal winter night — the dots mark how rare each extreme really is.
