The paper attempts to scan the East African climate during the period 1880–1980 to find any evidence for climatic change. Four indicators of climatic change were investigated: atmospheric temperature, rainfall, mountain glaciers and lake level fluctuations. Available evidence tends to indicate that there is no conclusive evidence that the East African climate has changed over the last century. What can be observed are short‐term climatic fluctuations without long‐term trends.
