Uzbekistan has a dry continental climate. This type of climate turns out to be very cold in winter with freezing and violent winds. While it is very hot in the summer. In addition, the climate of Uzbekistan is characterized by significant differences in daily and seasonal temperatures.
Much of the country is arid and desert with an average annual rainfall that varies between 100 mm and 200 mm. The driest areas are mainly the southern ones. Most of the low rainfall falls between October and May, but the rains are not a problem in such a dry country.
Instead, extreme temperatures can be a problem for travelers. Summer temperatures are very high. The maximum average temperatures in July, which is the hottest month, vary between 39 ° C and 34 ° C, while the minimum average temperatures in July vary between 18 ° C and 21 ° C. In winter, temperatures drop considerably, even reaching extreme values of -35 ° C. But on average the minimum temperatures vary in January, which is the coldest month, between -9 ° C and -1 ° C.
