Climate and weather of Kazakhstan

Average annual temperature and rainfall in Astana and Almaty, Kazakhstan

The vastness of the territory of Kazakhstan, which stretches over 3000 km from west to east and almost 2000 km from north to south, determines the climatic features of the country. If in the north of the country in winter there are frosts down to minus fifty, then in the south in summer melons ripen and cotton grows. The climate of Kazakhstan (with the exception of the south) is sharply continental with an average temperature between -4 ° C and -19 ° C in January and between + 19 ... + 26 ° C in July. In winter, temperatures can drop to -45 ° C, and in summer rise to +30 ° C.

On the territory of Kazakhstan, all four seasons are clearly expressed - with frosty winters, blooming springs, hot summers and crimson autumn. The cold winter begins in November and lasts until April. The influence of arctic air masses leads to severe (up to -50 C °) frosts. Spring is short and changeable - from mid-April to late May. At the same time, the weather in spring is very unstable: a clear warm day can suddenly change to a sharp cold snap. Dry hot summer begins at the end of May and lasts until mid-September, the temperature sometimes rises to +35 ... + 40 ° C. Autumn, with even weather and night frosts, starts in late September and lasts until early November.

In Kazakhstan, the highest temperature was recorded in the city of Turkestan (South Kazakhstan) +49 C °. The lowest is in the city of Atbasar (Akmola region) -57 C °. And besides, Astana is the coldest capital in the world after Ulan Bator, which does not prevent the capital of Kazakhstan from warming guests with the warmth of the hearts of its inhabitants.
