These are not official records. They are the highest and lowest readings this site has stored for Valencia Intl since September 2026, across 47 days we hold a reading for. Official climatological records are adjudicated by national meteorological services and by the WMO.
Valencia Intl (SVVA) is a METAR weather station in Venezuela, 428 m above sea level, about 8 km from Tacarigua.
We have kept a daily record here since 22 September 2026, every one of the 47 days this site has existed. We have stored 672 observations across the 46 of those days for which we also recorded a count.
The same record at three widths, picking up where the last 24 hours above leaves off. Each period is summarised from the grain that suits it, so nothing here is one reading repeated thousands of times into the page.
Each reading as it arrived, newest first, with what our quality checks did with it. A reading we did not count is shown struck through with the reason.

Over the last week we have readings for 7 days here, running from 0.0°C to 35.0°C, a spread of 35.0°C.
It reports about once an hour, and sent 12 readings in the last 24 hours.
Its best placing today was 363rd hottest of the 5,267 stations reporting.
Fell to 21.0°C, the lowest we have recorded here, beating 22.0°C on Wed 7 Oct 2026.
Entered the ten hottest reporting stations on Earth, reaching 3rd of 5,199.
Entered the hundred hottest reporting stations on Earth, reaching 67th of 7,345.
Its high of 33.0°C was the highest of the 5 stations we hold in Venezuela.
Its low of 22.0°C was the lowest of the 5 stations we hold in Venezuela.

Means are of the readings we stored, weighted by how often this station reported, so they are not daily averages and not climate normals. Some days were recorded before we began counting observations and contribute their high and low but not the mean.
Highest 35.0°C, lowest 0.0°C, mean 27.7°C. 47 days recorded from 672 readings.

It has reported on every day since Tue 22 Sep 2026.
The warmest month on record here is September, when the highest reading has reached 39.5°C (103.1°F) on Saturday, 20 September 2003.

39.5°C (103.1°F) on Saturday, 20 September 2003. That is the highest in the daily record we hold for this station, which runs since 1991. It is not an officially certified record unless a meteorological authority has recognised it.

Live reading from the station, after our quality checks
Readings here arrive through NOAA METAR. METAR is the routine aerodrome weather report, issued for aviation, typically every 30 or 60 minutes and more often when conditions change. It updates far more frequently than a synoptic report, which is why these pages have a usable chart.
| 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), 1991 to 2018 at this site and its predecessors, and our own observations, 47 days, which hold the record shown above | Measured, station |
| Nearby stations and distances | Computed from station positions in our own database | Calculated |
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.
6 readings from this station have been refused in the last 14 days.
One reading in the last 7 days was counted and flagged as unusual. The latest, 0.0 °C: the air temperature group in the source report is malformed, so this value was recovered from a corrupt reading. A flag is not a refusal: the reading stands, with a note on why it stood out.
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.

Observations stored by HottestAndColdest. A day we were not yet tracking is shown as an empty square, and says nothing about whether the station reported.
Not right now: it is 1,919th of the 9,362 stations reporting to us. Its best position since we started watching is 3rd of 9,230, and it has spent 1 day inside the top ten. We rank the stations that report to us, which is not the same as every place on Earth.
Our live rankings
Right now it is 4th hottest of the 5 stations we track in Venezuela.
Our live rankings
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.
