The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Bubanza has
recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do, and how far
they sit beyond a normal day.
Based on 34 years of daily weather observations (1991–present), from the Bujumbura Intl station 28 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.
The four kinds of extreme
The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest single days Bubanza

looks like.

In plain terms
In a normal year, Bubanza's warmest days reach the high 80s°F and its coldest nights drop to the high 60s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 102°F and as low as 36°F. A single day has delivered over 17 inches of rain. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
