How extreme does Nay Pyi Taw's weather get?

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Nay Pyi Taw has recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do, and how far they sit beyond a normal day.

Based on 11 years of daily weather observations (2014–present), from the Pyinmana station 10 km away. Updated through August 2025 — an all-time extreme only changes when a more extreme day actually occurs, so some dates are old. That is normal, not stale data.

In plain terms

Across the record, Nay Pyi Taw has reached as high as 109°F and as low as 52°F. A single day has delivered over 6 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 & precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 27 years of daily observations at Mae Hong Son, a weather station, about 185 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
