Notes

  1. The record highs and lows are based on the Secretaria de Mineria link for the period 1951–1960 and 1971–1980 while records beyond 1980 come from the Oficina de Riesgo Agropecuario link since it only covers from 1970–present. As a result, the most extreme values from either source are used.
