10 hot days so far, 9th of Hanover's 88 summers.
Hanover's records begin in 1936, but the station moved 1.51 km in 1964 and 1.25 km in 1967 and 1.42 km in 1992, so they are not one continuous site.

Hot here means 30.5 °C or above, a level about one summer day in twenty used to reach at this station between 1971 and 2000. The bar has not moved; the number of days clearing it has. Every year is counted to 8 August, so a part-finished summer is never set against complete ones. That threshold is Hanover's own. It is not a national standard and it is not comparable with another city's: every figure on this page is measured against this station and nothing else.
2 nights so far that never dropped below 20 °C. No multiple is quoted here. Hanover averages about 0.1 a year, and dividing by a base that thin produces a large number and no evidence. 24 of the 42 cities are gated this way.
Hanover's hottest day this year, 37.7 °C, is 3rd on this record. The previous best is 39.2 °C in 2022, the dot on the drop line. A typical summer here peaks at 32.1 °C. Its hot-day count is 9th of 88: a count and a peak are different claims, and neither borrows the other's rank.
