Both cities are warming. Each city has its own warming trend; see its trends page for the year-by-year detail. Tokyo trends → · Breckenridge trends →

Methodology & sources

Tokyo

Temperature & precipitation — the official 1991–2020 climate normals from the Japan Meteorological Agency, measured at Tokyo, about 5 km from the city centre.

Cloud, humidity, wind & sunshine — modelled estimates from NASA POWER, NASA's satellite-and-reanalysis climatology. This is the standard global source for atmospheric variables, which are not measured at most weather stations.

Breckenridge

Temperature & precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 29 years of daily observations at Copper Mountain, a weather station, about 11 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
