Has the climate in Konče changed?

Konče has warmed about 1.6°F since 1978.

About 0.5°F per decade, measured from Konče's official daily weather records, 1978–2025. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Konče's warming is broadly in line with other cities in North Macedonia — neither unusually fast nor unusually slow.

What has actually changed

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.

In day-to-day terms, that long-term shift shows up as about 13 more freezing nights a year and about 21 more days above 90°F compared with the 1970s.
