Abstract

The results show that the number of days with temperatures higher than 32 °C has increased, and the number of days with a minimum temperature of 15 °C has decreased. The average temperature on the island has increased by 2.24 °C in the period analyzed. The increase in the minimum temperature is more than two times greater than the increase in the maximum temperature in the analyzed period. The number of days with temperatures over 32 ° C is three times more than the number of days with temperatures below 15 °C.

When analyzing the behavior per decade it is found that there is an increase in the ratio between cold and warm days, from the 1950s, which was from 1: 1.79 to that of 2000-2019, which is 1: 3.28.
