This work concentrates on the analysis of monthly trends of extremes daily temperatures, both minimum and maximum. Analysis was done for the period 2000-2013, based on freely available hourly temperature measurements from 60 Polish stations. Percentiles Tmin10 for minimum and Tmax90 for maximum daily temperature within each month were used as thresholds for selection of extreme temperature values. Count of days with extreme temperatures below/above threshold described every month. Significance of days count trend was analyzed with Mann-Kendall test at the significance level 0.05. For maximum temperatures, significant decreasing trend was found only for 3 station-months. For minimum temperature, 26 significant trends were found and presented in the form of map.
