The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Arauca has
recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do, and how far
they sit beyond a normal day.
Based on 33 years of daily weather observations (1992–present), from the Santiago Perez station 3 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.

looks like.

In plain terms
Across the record, Arauca has reached as high as 108°F and as low as 57°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 18 years of daily observations at Guasdualito, a weather station, about 14 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
