Sources and checks for this page
Live readings come from METAR reports from the aerodrome at Reunion/St Denis/Garros Arpt. 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.
8.6°F between February and July, the 149th widest swing among the 230 capitals ranked here. The big figure on each card is the average high for that month across the whole record; the two lines beneath it are the hottest and coldest days ever recorded in it.

What is the weather in Saint-Denis right now?+−
80.6°F at Reunion/St Denis/Garros Arpt, measured at 16:30 local on Friday, 13 November 2026. This is the live reading from the station this page reads, after our quality checks. It is an observation rather than a forecast: it says what the weather IS, not what it will be.
When did temperature records begin in Saint-Denis?+−
The archive held here for Saint-Denis, Réunion starts in 1973, which is 52 years of record, and 24,656 stored daily values, each one a maximum or a minimum.
Which station measures Saint-Denis's temperature?+−
Reunion/St Denis/Garros Arpt (FMEE), 20 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.
How is the temperature measured and checked?+−
Readings arrive from METAR reports from the aerodrome and are quality controlled before they appear: a value outside a plausible range, or one that jumps further than air can move in the time between readings, is rejected rather than published. Every figure shows its source and the time it was observed.
Are there gaps in Saint-Denis's record?+−
The record runs from 1973 to 2025, and it is not equally deep across the year: the thinnest of the 12 months has 19 years of readings behind its average and the fullest has 29. Gaps are left as gaps: a month the archive never covered is omitted rather than filled in, which is why some months on this page carry no record.
Is Saint-Denis getting hotter?+−
In its hottest month it has. Across 19 Februarys between 1983 and 2011, the average February high at Reunion/St Denis/Garros Arpt has risen about 0.5°F per decade. That is a straight-line fit through this one station's record: it is not corrected for a station that moved or changed instrument, and it is a description of the readings rather than a climate attribution.
How does Saint-Denis compare with other capitals?+−
It is the 110th warmest of the 230 capital cities with a full twelve months of record here, ranked on annual mean rather than on any single day, and 149th by the width of its annual swing. Hanoi, Lusaka, Apia sit closest to it on that ranking.
When is Saint-Denis hottest?+−
February, averaging 86.2°F across the record, with July the coolest at 77.5°F. That is a swing of 8.6°F across the year.
Commentary: Warm enough to make carrying things slightly annoying.
