Climate change is one of the most critical Global challenges out of times. The climate change impacts will range from affecting agriculture to sea level rise and increasing intensity of natural disaster. The issue of Climate Change and its impact on water resources is of immense importance and that is why it requires an initiative against it. This analysis focuses on the climate change analysis of the Parbhani district of Marathwada. This study analyses climatological data, including rainfall, temperature, pan evaporation, bright sunshine hours, relative humidity, and UV index, over a period of 32 years (1988–2019). The normal and decadal trends from 30 years of data (1987–2017) were compared with the conditions in 2018 and 2019. The 30-year average annual rainfall was 841.87 mm, with occasional winter showers. The monsoon typically starts in June and ends in September. The maximum and average peak temperatures were recorded in May, while the minimum temperatures fell to their lowest in January. Pan evaporation displayed a rising trend from January to May, and then declined from June to December. The relative humidity fell from January to April and subsequently rose until September before dropping again by December. Bright sunshine hours show a steady increase from January to May, while the UV index remained fairly consistent with the 30-year average. This comparative analysis helps illuminate climate variability and seasonal patterns in the region.
