Reno has the greatest leap in summer temperatures

Newsweek -    A new analysis of U.S. temperature data has identified five cities where summer heat has increased the most over the past half-century, with one western city far above the rest.  

Reno, Nevada, has seen average summer temperatures rise by 11.3 degrees Fahrenheit since 1970, according to research published May 20 by Climate Central. It is followed by Boise, Idaho, and El Paso, Texas (both +6.3 degrees), Las Vegas, Nevada (+6.2) and Salt Lake City, Utah (+6.0).

The findings are based on an analysis of 243 major U.S. cities examining changes in average temperatures across June, July and August between 1970 and 2025, with Climate Central finding that summers have warmed in 97 percent of the cities studied.
