Hottest Temperature Record for Each Month of the Year for San Diego

Here is a list of the all time hottest monthly temperature records for the city of San Diego, California. 



The list might not seem odd to people living in San Diego but for most people living in the United States the list will seem pretty bizarre.

The all time hottest temperature record for each month in San Diego does not follow the same pattern it does for most places in the United States. For example, San Diego has a hotter temperature record in March than it does for the month of August. For most people in the country, August is just about the hottest time of the year.

The temperature data for Downtown San Diego dates back to 1874. All the data presented in this article is from the National Weather Service. The National Weather Service provides weather forecasts, weather warnings and historical weather data to the public and organizations in the United States. The National Weather Service is an agency of the federal government of the United States so almost all its info is in the public domain.
