The aim of the research was to compare measured temperatures in Virje and Virovitica. We were interested in differences between mean daily, mean monthly and mean annual temperatures as well as mean maximum and minimal monthly and annual temperatures.We wanted to find out is there a correspondence between absolute minimal and maximum annual temperature as well as between the number of warm, hot, cold and freezing days. We have used the data of GLOBE stations for the period between 1 January 2014 to 31 December 2018 and controlled them with the data of a Croatian Meteorological and Hydrological Service. The hypothesis is that absolute differences in temperatures will range up to 5 °C and according to the data processing it is obvious that the differences are in the range of up to 5 °C which confirms our hypothesis.
