Frequently asked questions about Montgomery's Climate Shift Index score
How fast is Montgomery's climate changing compared to other capitals?
Montgomery ranks 46 of 245 world capitals for how fast its climate is shifting. That places the city in the fastest-changing third of the ranking. The ranking measures pace of change, not how hot or how pleasant a city is.
What is changing fastest in Montgomery?
The fastest-shifting variable in Montgomery is frost days, at -3.4 days/decade. That is the change per decade, fitted as a linear trend across 1976 to 2025, so over 50 years of measured data rather than two isolated years.
How much is Montgomery warming per decade?
Montgomery is warming at +0.35°C/decade across 1976 to 2025. Over thirty years that works out at roughly 1.1°C. The trend accounts for 38% of the variation between years; the rest is ordinary year-to-year swing.
Is Montgomery getting more extreme heat days?
Days above 30°C are increasing by +5.5 days/decade in Montgomery. On this trend that is roughly 17 days gained or lost every thirty years.
Is Montgomery losing its winter?
Frost days are declining by -3.4 days/decade in Montgomery. Frost days are often the fastest-shifting variable in this dataset: cold extremes tend to warm faster than hot ones, which bears directly on anything sized for a cold season.
What does Montgomery's Climate Shift Index score actually mean?
The score folds six variables (temperature, tropical days, frost days, precipitation, sunshine hours and wind speed) into one number, converting each into a percentile against every other ranked capital. Montgomery scores 67.5. A low score does not mean nothing is changing, only that other capitals are shifting faster, and the score says nothing about how liveable or how warm a city is.
