Has the climate in Nōgata changed?

Nōgata has warmed about 1.4°F between 1993 and 2024.

About 0.5°F per decade, measured from Nōgata's official daily weather records, 1993–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Nōgata's climate has warmed more slowly than most other cities in Japan.
