FOR THE EXTREME TEMPERATURES IN THE UNITED STATES CLICK HERE

Special Notes: -The registers of temperatures have been taken during different periods of time, so while for certain stations data are available since the begin of the modern era in 1850 and even before, for other stations data are available only for some decades.

-Some old data with not decimal points could have been rounded.

-For some localities ,records have been merged from different stations when there are no significative microclimatic differences. If there are microclimatic differences, data have been separated.

-Data have been checked by daily and hourly (synops/metars) basis, in many cases with extensive quality controls,weather maps, satellite maps, etc...

-In the case of doubt, please contact the editor.

-Many people have helped me by providing information and data for my site. I would like to thank some of them (sorry if i forget somebody, there are really dozens of people who helped me!). Let me know if i missed to include your name in the following list:
