The summer temperature in most parts of Xinjiang is high, and the hottest degree in southern Xinjiang is higher than that in northern Xinjiang. The most prominent is Turpan, the hottest month (July), with an average temperature of 40℃ and an extreme maximum temperature of 49.6℃, ranking first in the country.
If the day with the highest temperature higher than 25℃ is designated as a high temperature day, then Turpan has an average of 100 high temperature days a year, ranking first in the country.
Obviously, the summer temperature in Turpan is even higher than that in Chongqing, Wuhan and Nanjing, which are known as the three major stoves, but the former is dry and hot, hot during the day and cool in the morning and evening; The latter is hot and humid and hot day and night. Therefore, it is better to live under the Flame Mountain in summer than by the Yangtze River. As for all parts of northern Xinjiang, it is cooler in summer.
Climatic characteristics of Xinjiang
The climate in Xinjiang is characterized by a large daily temperature difference (the difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature between day and night is called daily temperature difference). Generally, the temperature rises quickly during the day and drops greatly at night. In many places, the daily maximum temperature ranges from 20℃ to 25℃.
In Turpan, which has the characteristics of arid desert climate, the annual average daily range is 65438 04.8℃, and the highest daily range has reached 50℃. In Ruoqiang County on the southern edge of Taklimakan Desert, the annual average daily range is 65438 06.2℃, and the maximum daily range is 27.8℃.
It seems that I have experienced a change of hot and cold in one day. Wearing a vest and sweating during the day, you can sleep well by covering yourself with a quilt at night. These phenomena are rare in the whole country. The large daily temperature difference is conducive to the accumulation of carbohydrates in fruits and vegetables, so melons, watermelons, grapes, apricots, peaches and pears in Xinjiang are particularly sweet and delicious.
