Ródos's weather extremes

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Ródos 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.

Based on 24 years of daily weather observations (1998–2022), from the Rhodos station 10 km away. Updated through December 2022 — an all-time extreme only changes when a more extreme day actually occurs, so some dates are old. That is normal, not stale data.

The four kinds of extreme

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest single days Ródos has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

🔥 Hottest day
104°F Aug 12, 2002

That is about 15°F hotter than a normal August afternoon in Ródos (typical high near 89°F).

About 68% of a typical January's rain in a single day (Ródos averages roughly 7.3 in across the month).

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.

Ródos's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — August's 104°F is about 15°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.

In plain terms

In a normal year, Ródos's warmest days reach the high 80s°F and its coldest nights drop to the low 50s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 104°F and as low as 32°F. A single day has delivered over 5 inches of rain. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
Methodology & sources

Temperature — modelled for this location from ERA5-Land reanalysis, a ~9 km global grid, because no long-record weather station is close enough to use.

Precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 7 years of daily observations at Rhodos, a weather station, about 10 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
