How extreme does Pedro Juan Caballero's weather get?

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Pedro Juan Caballero 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 Ponta Pora 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.

In plain terms

In a normal year, Pedro Juan Caballero's warmest days reach the mid-80s°F and its coldest nights drop to the high 50s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 102°F and as low as 30°F. A single day has delivered over 8 inches of rain. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
