Weather extremes

Dori's weather extremes

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Dori 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 31 years of daily weather observations (1991–2022), from the Dori station. Updated through March 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 Dori has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

🔥 Hottest day
119°F May 3, 1997

That is about 12°F hotter than a normal May afternoon in Dori (typical high near 107°F).

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.

Dori's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — May's 119°F is about 12°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, Dori's warmest days reach the high 100s°F and its coldest nights drop to the low 60s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 119°F and as low as 48°F. A single day has delivered over 13 inches of rain. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
