Has the climate in Bangui changed?

Bangui has warmed about 2.3°F between 1992 and 2024.

About 0.8°F per decade, measured from Bangui'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? Bangui's climate has warmed faster than most other cities in Central African Republic.

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 Bangui M Poko, a weather station, about 6 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
