Has the climate in Ahvaz changed?

Ahvaz has warmed about 3.5°F between 1991 and 2024.

About 1.1°F per decade, measured from Ahvaz's official daily weather records, 1991–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Ahvaz's climate has warmed faster than most other cities in Iran.

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.
