This data, meticulously compiled from decades of observations, provides valuable context for understanding Bishkek's climate patterns. While the average May temperature hovers around a more moderate 17.8 degrees Celsius, the recorded highs, like that of last year, illustrate the potential for significant temperature fluctuations.
