Climate change affects everyday life, especially extremely high temperatures and longterm droughts alternating with intense rainfall. Changes in rainfall distribution and increasing temperatures force farmers to adapt to new conditions. In our contribution, we compared temperature deviations from the climatic normal and the percentage of precipitation from the climatic normal. For the complexity of the data comparison, a 60-year normal was created for 81 stations in Slovakia. Data interpolation created maps were superimposed on each other and created new areas comparing the complex development of temperatures and precipitation in individual regions of Slovakia (Bratislava, Trnava, Nitra, Trenčín, Žilina, Banská Bystrica, Prešov and Košice region) for the decades 1961-1970, 1991-2000 and 2011-2020 and in individual months of the year. The tables show the percentage development of the area of newly created areas in individual regions and decades. To see how currently warmer and drier areas have invaded, especially in winter, when there is an insufficient layer of snow cover in the southern regions, which affects soil moisture especially in spring. With this contribution, we can help farmers visualize the evolution of temperatures and precipitation over decades, which will also indicate future developments and they can better adapt to the impacts of climate change.
