Has the climate in Tlalpan changed?

Tlalpan has warmed about 1.7°F between 1990 and 2024.

About 0.8°F per decade, measured from Tlalpan's official daily weather records, 1990–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Tlalpan's warming is broadly in line with other cities in Mexico — 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.
