Has the climate in Kazan changed?

Kazan has warmed about 4.2°F between 1971 and 2024.

About 0.8°F per decade, measured from Kazan's official daily weather records, 1971–2024. Individual years still bounce around — some recent ones came in cool — but the long-term line has clearly risen.

Is that a lot? Kazan's warming is broadly in line with other cities in Russia — 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 16 fewer freezing nights a year and about 2 more days above 90°F compared with the 1970s.

November has warmed the most — about 2.6°F. The warming runs across the whole year, not just one season.

Methodology & sources

Temperature — 1991–2020 normals computed from 29 years of daily observations at Kazan, a weather station, about 8 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
