You are being silly here since there is no defined time frame to make it climate, is it months, years, hundreds of years or longer?
Here is what the IPCC says about Climate:
"Climate Climate in a narrow sense is usually defined as the average weather, or more rigorously, as the statistical description in terms of the mean and variability of relevant quantities over a period of time ranging from months to thousands or millions of years. The classical period for averaging these variables is 30 years, as defined by the World Meteorological Organization. The relevant quantities are most often surface variables such as temperature, precipitation and wind. Climate in a wider sense is the state, including a statistical description, of the climate system."
Boldings mine

NASA agrees,
"What Climate Means
In short, climate is the description of the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area.
Some scientists define climate as the average weather for a particular region and time period, usually taken over 30-years. It's really an average pattern of weather for a particular region."

The charts time frame (50+ years) is clearly long enough to meet the basic definition of climate.
You are the one making an elementary mistake.
I think you can figure it out from here.
