Has the climate in Mitrovicë changed?

About 0.8°F per decade, measured from Mitrovicë'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? Mitrovicë's climate has warmed faster than most other cities worldwide.

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 14 fewer freezing nights a year and about 13 more days above 90°F compared with the 1970s.

When in the year the change shows up

July has warmed the most — about 3.0°F. The warming runs across the whole year, not just one season.

Methodology & sources

Temperature — 1991–2020 normals computed from 27 years of daily observations at Nis, a weather station, about 98 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
