The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Janjanbureh has
recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do, and how far
they sit beyond a normal day.
Based on 31 years of daily weather observations (1994–present), from the Georgetown station. 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 Janjanbureh

looks like.
