Has the climate in Damietta changed?

Damietta has warmed about 1.6°F between 1996 and 2024.

About 0.5°F per decade, measured from Damietta's official daily weather records, 1996–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Damietta's climate has warmed more slowly than most other cities in Egypt.

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.

Methodology & sources

Temperature — 1991–2020 normals computed from 27 years of daily observations at Port Said, a weather station, about 49 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
