description The impact of climate change on annual and monthly air precipitation and temperature has received a great deal of attention by scholars worldwide. This study focuses on detecting trends in annual precipitation and temperature for Addis Ababa methodological station located in Addis Ababa. SPSS in combination with the excel spreadsheet used for analyzing the statistics. We were also used the Mann-Kendall trend test and Sen’s slope method to detect trends and the magnitude of change. According to our analysis, the mean minimum temperature ranges between 8.45°C and 12.5°C, while, the mean maximum temperature varies between 21.1°C and 25.5°C From the analysis the monthly coefficient of variation (CV%) for both maximum and minimum temperature ranging from (5.4% in April) to (14.08% in December). According to the Mann Kendal test and Sen’s slope estimate, the annual maximum temperature shows a statistically significant increasing trend but no significant positive or negative trend was detected in annual perception as well minimum temperature.
