Weather extremes

How extreme does Souk Ahras's weather get?

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

Based on 30 years of daily weather observations (1995–present), from the Souk Ahras station 1 km away. Updated through November 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.

Souk Ahras's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — August's 117°F is about 25°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, Souk Ahras's warmest days reach the low 90s°F and its coldest nights drop to the high 30s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 117°F and as low as 21°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.
