Cagayan de Oro's weather extremes

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Cagayan de Oro has recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do. This station's daily record ended in 2023, so these are historical extremes from that period, not records updated to today.

Based on 32 years of daily weather observations (1991–2023), from the Lumbia Airport station 8 km away. Updated through August 2023 — 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 Cagayan de Oro has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

🔥 Hottest day
105°F Mar 11, 2013

That is about 16°F hotter than a normal March afternoon in Cagayan de Oro (typical high near 89°F).

How hot and cold it gets, month by month

The shaded band is the normal range of daily temperatures for each month. The dots show the most extreme it has ever been — so you can see how far beyond a normal day the records really sit.

Cagayan de Oro's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — March's 105°F is about 16°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, Cagayan de Oro's warmest days reach the low 90s°F and its coldest nights drop to the low 70s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 105°F and as low as 52°F. A single day has delivered over 10 inches of rain. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
