The aim of this paper is to research change of air temperature in Varaždin in the period from 2015 to 2019 in relation to the period from 2000 to 2004. Data were collected by daily measurements of atmospheric phenomenon according to the GLOBE protocols for the atmosphere, at the atmospheric station at school. Statistical analysis was conducted. The data show 0,4°C higher average annual air temperature in Varaždin in the period from 2015 to 2019 compared to the period from 2000 to 2004. In the same period, the number of warm and hot days were higher than in period from 2000 to 2004. Numbers of icy, cold and cool days were lower in the period from 2015 to 2019. Average winter air temperatures were higher in the period from 2015 to 2019. The cause of the increase in air temperatures in Varaždin is yet to be investigated.
