How extreme does Stanley's weather get?

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Stanley 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 Stanley station 6 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 Stanley has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

Methodology & sources

Temperature & precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 18 years of daily observations at Sea Lion Island, a weather station, about 117 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
