Resistencia has warmed about 2.1°F between 1971 and 2024.
About 0.4°F per decade, measured from Resistencia's official daily weather records, 1971–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.
Is that a lot? Resistencia's warming is broadly in line with other cities in Argentina — neither unusually fast nor unusually slow.

Wetter on average
Resistencia's temperature, year by year
Average temperature for each year from 1971 to 2024.
a warmer-than-average year a cooler-than-average year
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 10 fewer days above 90°F compared with the 1970s.

otherwise the headline above already has the answer.
