Climate
The coldest temperature ever recorded in Paris since meteorological records started in 1873 was on December 10, 1879 when the temperature went down to &#8211;23.9° C (&#8211;11.0° F) in the city proper, and &#8211;25.6° C (&#8211;14.1° F) in the southeastern suburb of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés.

The hottest temperature was recorded on July 28, 1947 when the temperature in the city proper (Parc Montsouris) reached 40.4° C (104.7° F). During the deadly European heat wave of 2003, the temperature in central Paris (Parc Montsouris) "only" reached 38.1° C (100.6° F) during the day, while reaching 40.2° C (104.4° F) at Le Bourget Airport in the northern suburbs, but the lowest temperature at night on August 11 and August 12, 2003 was 25.5° C (77.9° F) in the Parc Montsouris, which is the hottest minimum temperature at night ever registered in Paris, causing the death of many elderly people whose body temperature could not cool down.
