How extreme does Nueva Loja's weather get?

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

Based on 14 years of daily weather observations (2011–present), from the Lago Agrio station 19 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.

In plain terms

Across the record, Nueva Loja has reached as high as 97°F and as low as 46°F. A single day has delivered over 5 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 — modelled for this location from ERA5-Land reanalysis, a ~9 km global grid, because no long-record weather station is close enough to use.

Precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 16 years of daily observations at Pasto/antonio Narin, a weather station, about 154 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
