February weather forecast
Mongolia

February in Mongolia is still in the firm grip of winter, with sub-zero temperatures prevalent across the country. However, it is slightly less severe compared to the extreme cold experienced in January. The northern and central regions, including Ulaanbaatar, generally observe temperatures ranging from -25°C (-13°F) to -15°C (5°F). The southern regions and the Gobi Desert experience similar temperatures, with slightly warmer daytime temperatures reaching around -10°C (14°F).

Despite February being marginally warmer than January, it remains a month of significant cold, with temperatures rarely venturing above the freezing point. Snow continues to blanket the landscapes, especially in the northern parts of the country, as the precipitation from November through January has yet to melt due to persistent cold conditions.

Wind conditions in February remain similar to those of January. The cold winds can further reduce the perceived temperature, leading to extremely harsh weather conditions, especially in the open steppe and desert regions.

When comparing February to the following month, March typically brings a noticeable change. As February transitions into March, there is a slight increase in temperatures, signaling the gradual approach of spring. Despite this, March can still have cold spells and it is not until April that more substantial warming is observed. Therefore, February, much like January, is a month that showcases the severe cold and dry conditions of the Mongolian winter.
