Has the climate in Oran changed?

Oran has warmed about 1°F between 2002 and 2024.

About 0.9°F per decade, measured from Oran's official daily weather records, 2002–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Oran's warming is broadly in line with other cities in Algeria — neither unusually fast nor unusually slow.

What has actually changed

Each card compares the 1970s (the first ten years of the record) with recent years (the last ten) — the same span the headline and the chart use.

Each bar is one year. Most recent years sit above the older ones. Some recent years still came in cool — warming is a slope, not a straight climb.

In day-to-day terms, that long-term shift shows up as about 2 more days above 90°F compared with the 1970s.
