Each chart shows one value per year; the dot marks the record year. TXx is the hottest daily maximum, TNn the coldest daily minimum, Rx1day and Rx5day the largest one-day and five-day rain totals, and CDD the longest run of days with less than 1 mm of rain. A year with missing days can understate an extreme.
Frost Dates and Growing Season
67 years with a frostAcross 67 years with a frost, the median last spring frost at Shache falls on 16 March and the median first autumn frost on 28 October, which leaves a median of 225 days between them.
In 1990 to 2025 the median growing season was 226 days. That is 1 day more than in 1953 to 1982.
Fitted over all years, the growing season changes by +2.4 days per decade at this station.
| Measure | Median, all years | Earliest period (1953 to 1982) | Recent period (1990 to 2025) | Recent against earliest | Fitted trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last spring frost | 16 March | 20 March | 15 March | 5 days earlier | -1.8 days per decade |
| First autumn frost | 28 October | 28 October | 26 October | 2 days earlier | +0.6 days per decade |
| Growing days | 225 days | 225 days | 226 days | 1 day more | +2.4 days per decade |
A frost day is a day with a daily minimum at or below 0 C (32 F). The last spring frost and the first autumn frost are the last and first such days of the cold season, and growing days are the days between them. A negative trend for the last spring frost means it comes earlier.
Rainfall Return Levels
64 years, 1953 to 2023A day with at least 13.2 mm (0.5 in) of rain is expected about once in 2 years. A day with at least 52.7 mm (2.1 in) of rain is expected about once in 100 years.

| 25 years | 37.9 mm (1.5 in) | |
| 50 years | 45.1 mm (1.8 in) | |
| 100 years | 52.7 mm (2.1 in) | Longer than the 64 years of record |
The levels come from a generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution fitted by L-moments to the wettest-day total of each year, 64 years of values from 1953 to 2023.
A return level is an estimate. It is least reliable for the long periods, 50 and 100 years, and for any period longer than the record behind the fit, where the fit has to reach past the largest day actually observed. It is not a forecast.
The largest wettest-day totals in the fit: 49.8 mm (2.0 in) in 2002; 43.5 mm (1.7 in) in 1982; 42.2 mm (1.7 in) in 1981.
Climate Twins
2005 to 2025 against 1961 to 1990Over 2005 to 2025, Shache had a mean temperature of 13.2 C (55.7 F) and 61.1 mm (2.4 in) of rain a year. The 3 stations whose 1961 to 1990 climate was closest to that are Hotan (China, 275 km away), Bachu (China, 189 km away) and Kashi (China, 160 km away).
| Twin station | Country | Distance away | Mean temperature, 1961-1990 | Rain a year, 1961-1990 | Climate difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hotan | China | 275 km (171 mi) | 12.7 C (54.8 F) | 34.1 mm (1.3 in) | 0.66 |
| Bachu | China | 189 km (117 mi) | 12.2 C (53.9 F) | 50.9 mm (2.0 in) | 1.24 |
| Kashi | China | 160 km (99 mi) | 11.8 C (53.2 F) | 64.5 mm (2.5 in) | 1.53 |
Twins are stations, not cities. A twin is one of the three stations at least 100 km away whose earlier climate is closest to this station's recent one, so a close match does not mean the two places look alike in other ways. A station move or a gap in a record can change that station's averages. The list describes past climate; it is not a forecast and does not say what caused any change. How twins are found, and a search for any station.
