Turpan is a typical continental arid desert climate. Although the annual average temperature is only 14.5℃, the days above 35℃ exceed 100 days, and even the extremely hot weather above 38℃ is as many as 38 days.

The absolute maximum temperature measured for many years is 49.6℃( 1975 07 13), and the surface temperature can reach 89℃, which is a veritable "China hot pole". The average annual precipitation in Huozhou is only 16mm, accounting for half in summer, while the annual precipitation in Toksun is only 5.9mm. It is not surprising that it doesn't rain all the year round, so it can be called "China dry pole".
