How extreme does Jõhvi's weather get?

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Jõhvi 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 Johvi station 4 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 Jõhvi has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

In plain terms

In a normal year, Jõhvi's warmest days reach the mid-70s°F and its coldest nights drop to the low 30s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 94°F and as low as −30°F. A single day has delivered over 2 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 27 years of daily observations at Narva-joesuu, a weather station, about 40 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
