  The objective of this work is to study the behavior of the indicators of climatic extremes in Sagua la Grande, Villa Clara. The data used were the series of maximum temperature (Tx), minimum temperature (Tn) and precipitation (RR) in the period 1977-2017. They are part of the data file of the Provincial Meteorological Center of Villa Clara (CMP.VC); as well as the daily precipitation series of the rainwater network of the Villa Clara Hydraulic Utilization Company (EAH-VC). The Rclimdex-extraQc software and the RH-Test tool were used. The change points and the trends of the maximum, minimum temperatures and the amplitude of the thermal oscillation were calculated, according to the methodology established by the World Meteorological Organization for Climate Change studies. The most outstanding results show a significant increase in extreme minimum temperatures, as well as the number of hot days and the growing trend of tropical nights. The rains did not show significant trends, although there is evidence of an increase in total annual rainfall due to the very wet days, the events of heavy rainfall and several days with rain
