Mislata has warmed about 4.2°F between 1973 and 2024.
About 0.8°F per decade, measured from Mislata's official daily weather records, 1973–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.
Is that a lot? Mislata's warming is broadly in line with other cities in Spain — neither unusually fast nor unusually slow.

not a straight climb.
