Yevlakh has a cold semi-arid climate.
Dry country, big sun, modest rain — here's what that means in plain terms.
What this climate feels like
The four things a regular visitor actually wants to know:
Highs near 33°C in July. About 33 days a year above 32 °C.
Lows near −1°C in January. About 4 freezing nights a year.
About 498 mm of rain a year. Wettest in May.
A roughly even mix of sun and cloud.
What "cold semi-arid" means
Climate scientists sort every place on Earth into about 30 climate types, based on how hot, cold, wet and dry it is across the year. Yevlakh's type — cold semi-arid — sits in the broad family of dry climates — deserts and steppes.
Researchers write climate types as a short letter code. Here is what each letter means:
Cities with the same climate as Yevlakh
A cold semi-arid climate (BSk) — these recognizable cities share it. If you know one of them, you know roughly what to expect.
Has Yevlakh's climate type changed?
Stable — Yevlakh's climate has held the same type between the 1971–2000 and 1991–2020 normals. The label is steady; the climate beneath it is still warming.
What this climate means for you
Native prairie grasses, hardy conifers and cold-tolerant fruit (apples, cherries) excel. Lawns need irrigation.
Spring through autumn is comfortable; winters are cold and sometimes blustery. Sun is abundant year-round.
Four real seasons, but dry. Cold winters need heating; summers are warm and pleasant by day with cool nights.
Where these numbers come from
The climate type and the month-by-month figures on this page are computed from Yevlakh's measured 30-year climate normals (1991–2020) — the same official records behind Yevlakh's main climate page, so the two always agree.
Long-range climate maps measure things slightly differently and can place a city in a neighbouring category. Where they differ, this page uses the measured station record as the climate today.
Methodology & sources
Temperature — modelled for this location from ERA5-Land reanalysis, a ~9 km global grid, because no long-record weather station is close enough to use.
Precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 3 years of daily observations at Ganca, a weather station, about 63 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
