According to long-term hydrometeorological data obtained at the Black Sea Hydrophysical Proving Ground (BSHPG) located on the Southern Coast of Crimea, the analysis of annual, monthly and daily average anomalies of surface air temperature for the period 2012–2016 is performed. The correlations of the of the surface air temperature anomalies with the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Southern Oscillation (SOI) indices are considered, and an increase in the absolute value of air temperature anomalies in the summer period has been revealed. The negative air temperature anomalies during the winter period, their connection with the regional factor of climate variability (Bora) and atmospheric processes in the European region are considered. A general increase in surface air temperature over South Coast of Crimea during the study period is observed.
