Extreme temperatures

Hi Max, thanks for contacting me. As you have guessed, I am very interested in temperatures and records. I checked out your website (http://www.mherrera.org/temp.htm) and I have a few updates to make for Mumbai:

  • Mumbai Airport should be renamed to "Mumbai (Santacruz)" or "Mumbai (Santacruz airport)" Santacruz is the key word here.
  • Mumbai Downtown should be renamed as "Mumbai (Colaba)"

As these are official names of the two weather stations in the city.

  • Extreme low recorded for Mumbai (Santacruz) -- 7.4 °C was on 22 January, 1962
  • Extreme low recorded for Mumbai (Colaba) -- 11.7 °C was on 1 February, 1929

A low of 6.5 °C was recorded near Kanheri Caves on 8 February, 2008. As Kanheri lies within Mumbai city limits, it is the lowest recorded temperature available for the city.

Please could you update your records? Thanks =Nichalp «Talk»= 17:57, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I think Mumbai (Santacruz airport) should solve the problem. PS Santacruz is the domestic airport. As for the authenticity of the temperature record, I can deduce the following:
  • Source
  • And the fact that the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has setup 30 weather stations around the city to monitor the weather 6.5C Source.
  • From the above Mumbai Mirror article, the weather station at Tulsi Lake pumping station would be the closest to Kanheri Caves.
  • I would assume that the weather stations set up by the BMC would adhere to meteorological guidelines.

According to the Italian Aeronautica Militare Italy's official highest temperature is 45.6 in Bari in July 2007.The Catenanuova temperature is not accepted neither from official Italian authorities nor from the WMO

The OFFICIAL record recognized both by WMO and all the participating countries in Europe is 48.0C in Athens in July 1977 and was recorded in two suburbs of the Greek capital in the Attica Basin.Also 47.5C was recorded again in Athens in July 2007
