Yucca Valley's weather extremes

The hottest, coldest, wettest and snowiest days Yucca Valley has recorded — the outer limits of what its weather can do. This station's daily record ended in 2022, so these are historical extremes from that period, not records updated to today.

Based on 11 years of daily weather observations (2011–2022), from the Yucca Valley station 4 km away. Updated through May 2022 — 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 Yucca Valley has recorded — each shown against what a normal day that time of year looks like.

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.

Yucca Valley's record heat sits well above even a hot day for the season — July's 111°F is about 15°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, Yucca Valley's warmest days reach the mid-90s°F and its coldest nights drop to the mid-30s°F. But across the record it has gone as high as 111°F and as low as 16°F. A single day has delivered over 2 inches of rain or close to 6 inches of snow. Those are the outer edges worth knowing if you are moving here, planning a trip, or thinking about a house.
