Preparing to travel to Xinjiang, what is the climate like in Xinjiang?

Xinjiang has a temperate continental climate. Its climate is characterized by a large temperature difference between day and night. It is a typical continental arid climate. Southern Xinjiang is arid, with long sunshine and little rain. The annual precipitation is only 20-100 mm, while the northern Xinjiang is dry. The thickness reaches 100-500 mm. The average annual temperature in the southern Xinjiang Plain is 10C-13C, while in the northern Xinjiang Plain it is lower than 10C. The extreme maximum temperature in Turpan reached 48.9C, and the extreme minimum temperature in Cocotuohai, Fuyun County, reached -51.5C. The frost-free period in the southern Xinjiang plain is 200-220 days, while most of the northern Xinjiang plain is less than 150 days. Several characteristics of Xinjiang’s climate: 1. Dry 2. Cold in winter and hot in summer 3. Large diurnal temperature range 4. Abundant sunshine Xinjiang’s diverse climate types are full of “magic”. Xinjiang is located in the center of the mainland, far away from the ocean and surrounded by plateaus and mountains. It has a temperate and extreme continental climate with long and cold winters, hot and dry summers, and short and dramatic spring and autumn. However, the north and south of Xinjiang span about 15 degrees in latitude and have a large terrain elevation difference. There are warm, cold and temperate zones in southern and northern Xinjiang, and there are obvious differences between dry and wet areas in the east and west. The same area has distinct vertical differences due to the terrain elevation difference. Climatic characteristics have caused differences in the natural landscapes of Xinjiang from east to west, from north to south, and from mountains to mountains.

Under the influence of the arid climate, Xinjiang has become one of the driest, hottest, coldest, windiest and sandiest places in China, with the largest temperature differences, such as the hottest in Turpan, the "Fire State", and the drought and richness in the Tarim Basin in eastern Xinjiang and southern Xinjiang.
