This station has not reported a qualifying observation since Tue 22 Sep 2026. A separate archive of daily values from 1944 is linked under data sources.
Our synoptic decoder reads air temperature only, so this station reports no dew point, wind or pressure here.
Across 16 Novembers, 1973 to 2003, this station's November average has risen about 0.4° per decade. A fit through this station's own record, not a climate finding.
Warmest November here: 2003, averaging 31.0°C. Coldest: 1975, averaging 28.9°C.
Between its coldest night and its hottest day, this place has swung 18.2°C.

This station lies about 1,500 km north of the equator. It lies within the tropics.

Grantley Adams (TBPB) is a weather station in Barbados, 50 m above sea level, about 16 km from Bridgetown.
The warmest month on record here is October, when the highest reading has reached 33.3°C (91.9°F) on Sunday, 24 October 1982.

33.3°C (91.9°F) on Sunday, 24 October 1982. That is the highest in the daily record we hold for this station, which runs since 1944. It is not an officially certified record unless a meteorological authority has recognised it.

Readings here arrive through NOAA WMO SYNOP bulletins. SYNOP is the surface synoptic report that national weather services file to the WMO, typically at the main hours of 00, 06, 12 and 18 UTC and often three hourly between them. It covers places with no airport, which is why the coldest readings on Earth arrive this way.
| Figure | Source | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Latest reading, today so far | NOAA Aviation Weather Center (METAR) and NOAA NWS WMO bulletins (SYNOP) | Measured, station |
| All-time, monthly and on-this-day records | NOAA NCEI Global Historical Climatology Network daily (GHCN-Daily), 1944 to 2004 at this site and its predecessors | Measured, station |

Every reading on this page has passed the checks below. A reading that fails any of them is stored as refused and can never be ranked, shown as a record, or counted in a daily high or low.
No reading from this station has been refused in the last 14 days.
A reading with no usable latitude and longitude is discarded. It cannot be ranked, mapped, or compared with its neighbours, and a temperature with no place is not an answer to which place is hottest.
Some feeds fill an unknown position with a stand-in value such as 99.99 degrees or an elevation of 9999 m. Those are not coordinates. They are caught separately from a missing position because a station placed at a fake point has no neighbours, so the neighbour check below can never see anything wrong with it.
SYNOP arrives as files that are only re-read when they change. A file that has stopped being updated is set aside whole, before any reading inside it is considered.
Different networks get different windows, because they report at different rates: 2 hours for METAR, which transmits continuously, and 9 hours for SYNOP, which reports at 00, 06, 12 and 18 UTC. A single rule would have discarded the entire synoptic network, including every station in Antarctica.

Anything above 56.8 °C or below -95 °C is refused. The ceiling sits just above the highest reading WMO accepts, so a genuine new world record would be refused here too: a record needs adjudicating, not a live tile on a home page. The floor is deliberately further from its record, because the Antarctic plateau is thinly instrumented and a real extreme there has far less around it to corroborate it.
A change of more than 15 °C from this station's previous reading within 60 minutes is treated as a failing sensor. The limit is set from measured data: real weather reaches about 12 °C in an hour at desert sunrise or under a thunderstorm outflow, and the faults found were 20 °C and more.
A reading more than 12 °C from the median of other stations within 150 km is refused. It needs at least 3 neighbours to run at all, so it protects dense networks and can say nothing about an isolated station, which is why the other checks above have to stand on their own.
