1086hPa in Mongolia

    The world record of 1083hPa in Siberia in 1968 was unofficially beaten last week when Gandan Huryee in Mongolia reached 1086hPa. However, given its altitude of 1400m and the temperature of -44°C, the reduction to sea level may lead to errors, so it will not be officially accepted as a new record.

    Taken from the DWD "Thema des Tages" (21.01.2010)
    Im Bereich des asiatischen Kältehochs wurde übrigens an der
    Station Gandan Huryee (Mongolei) ein neuer Luftdruckrekord mit
    1086 hPa registriert (Wert auf Meeresspiegel reduziert).
    Angesichts der Stationshöhe von 1400 Meter und einer
    Lufttemperatur von minus 44 Grad kann bei der Reduktion des
    Luftdruckes ein Fehler entstehen, weshalb der neue Rekordwert
    keine Gültigkeit hat (der alte Rekordwert wurde am 31.12.1968
    in Agata, Sibirien, registriert).

    The Global Weather & Climate Extremes site mentions the 1968 record. Some of the rainfall extremes seem unimaginable....

    In the area of the Asian cold high was the way to the
    Station Gandan Huryee (Mongolia), a new record, with pressure
    1086 hPa registered reduced (value at sea level).
    In view of the station altitude of 1400 meters and a
    Air temperature of minus 44 degrees to the reduction of the
    Atmospheric pressure, an error occur, so the new record
    has no validity (the old record high was posted on 31/12/1968
    at Agata, Siberia, registered).
