Have you ever needed to settle a bar bet about the weather but did not know where to go to get  the right information? Or maybe you just have a weather-crazy kid or grandkid that wants to know everything they can about the worst weather ever. This web site is for you–the State Climate Extremes page from NOAA at https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/extremes/scec/records. On it you can find out the biggest hailstone in Alabama (5.38 inch diameter), the most snow in Hawaii (5 inches), the coldest temperature in Georgia (-17 F), the warmest temperature in Alaska (100 F) and many other weather records. Impress your friends with your trivia skills!
