Has the climate in Traralgon changed?

Traralgon has warmed about 1.8°F since 1984.

About 0.4°F per decade, measured from Traralgon's official daily weather records, 1984–2025. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

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

What has actually changed

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 6 more days above 90°F compared with the 1970s.

January has warmed the most — about 2.1°F. The warming runs across the whole year, not just one season.

Methodology & sources

Temperature — 1991–2020 normals computed from 30 years of daily observations at Morwell (latrobe Valley Airpor, a weather station, about 6 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
