The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Armenia has
recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do, and how far
they sit beyond a normal day.
Based on 24 years of daily weather observations (2001–present), from the El Eden station 14 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 Armenia

In plain terms
Across the record, Armenia has reached as high as 96°F and as low as 45°F. A single day has delivered over 11 inches of rain. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
