Which station measures Bucharest's temperature?
Bucuresti / Imh (LRBS), 90 m above sea level. Every figure on this page comes from that one station rather than from a city-wide average, so it is a measurement at a known place rather than an estimate for an area.

−26.0°F, on 25 January 1942, in the same archive. Like the high, it is the lowest daily minimum this station has recorded rather than an official national figure.
Sources and checks for this page
Live readings come from WMO SYNOP bulletins at Bucuresti / Imh. Monthly means and every record on this page are computed from NOAA GHCN-Daily observations stored per station, per year, per month, and the capital list is GeoNames, CC BY 4.0. Nothing here is modelled, interpolated or estimated, and a month the archive never covered is left out rather than filled in. See how this is built.
