Forecast for Kazakhstan in August 2025: Mixed Weather Awaits
Kazakhstan is set to experience a diverse range of weather conditions in August 2025, according to long-term forecasts. The country will see generally moderately hot temperatures, but with significant regional variability, including extreme heat, thunderstorms, and varied precipitation levels.
In the city of Almaty, average daytime temperatures are expected to be in the range of about 29°C to 35°C, with nights cooling down to the mid-teens (around 13-20°C). Rainfall is quite frequent with about 19 rainy days expected in August, so wet and unstable weather conditions like thunderstorms are likely, especially considering Almaty's location in the southeast where mountainous terrain influences more precipitation. There are also some days forecasted with temperatures rising above 30°C, occasionally reaching mid-30s, indicative of warm, sometimes hot conditions.
On the other hand, Nur-Sultan (formerly Astana) will experience moderately warm temperatures with above-average rainfall in August. Nighttime lows will range approximately 12-20°C, and daytime highs from mid-20s to mid-30s °C. The northern and central parts of Kazakhstan, including Nur-Sultan, are forecasted to experience rainfall above normal, so expect a relatively wetter August with possibilities of thunderstorms and unsettled weather. Overall, temperatures will warm through the month but remain comfortably moderate compared to southern regions.
Western and southwestern Kazakhstan are expected to have below-average precipitation and slightly cooler nights compared to early August in northern and eastern parts. Thunderstorms, dust storms, and severe weather events are possible regionally, so variability and localized conditions are important to monitor for both cities.
In summary, Almaty will see warm to hot weather with frequent rain and thunderstorms, while Nur-Sultan will experience moderately warm temperatures with above-average rainfall in August 2025. Weather conditions will be dynamic, especially in mountainous and northern regions, so continuous updates closer to the time are advisable.
Warming in the first decade of 2025 will reach the north and east of Kazakhstan, while the south and west will see a slight cooling. Subsequently, weather conditions in Kazakhstan will be unstable, with hot days alternating with cool and rainy ones, and possible thunderstorms, hail, and dust storms.
