Has the climate in Ho changed?

Ho has warmed about 1.3°F between 1992 and 2024.

About 0.4°F per decade, measured from Ho's official daily weather records, 1992–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Ho's warming is broadly in line with other cities in Ghana — 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.

Methodology & sources

Temperature — 1991–2020 normals computed from 28 years of daily observations at Gnassingbe Eyadema Intl, a weather station, about 99 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
