While researching online, I found these estimates, but it is worth noting that it is very common for temperatures on various days in summer to exceed 40 degrees and in winter to drop to negative degrees.
The table presented above is for Tokyo. There are various factors that can influence the rise or fall of temperature. See below other tables for the extreme north and extreme south of Japan.
