Weather extremes

How extreme does Baia Mare's weather get?

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Baia Mare has recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do, and how far they sit beyond a normal day.

Based on 50+ years of daily weather observations (1971–present), from the Baia Mare station 5 km away. Updated through February 2026 — 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 Baia Mare has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

🔥 Hottest day
100°F Jul 1, 2022

That is about 22°F hotter than a normal July afternoon in Baia Mare (typical high near 78°F).

About 100% of a typical August's rain in a single day (Baia Mare averages roughly 2.9 in across the month).

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.

Baia Mare's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — July's 100°F is about 22°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, Baia Mare's warmest days reach the low 80s°F and its coldest nights drop to the high 10s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 100°F and as low as −11°F. A single day has delivered over 3 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 — modelled for this location from ERA5-Land reanalysis, a ~9 km global grid, because no long-record weather station is close enough to use.

Precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 11 years of daily observations at Baia Mare, a weather station, about 5 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
