Gansu turns cooler over seven days on 2026-11-11
Longnan is Gansu's warmest city by daytime high, reaching 16.8°C under cloudy skies. Tianshui follows at 16.2°C, while sunny Lanzhou reaches 15.8°C. At the cooler end, Gannan has a high of 11.7°C, leaving a 5.1°C spread between the warmest and coolest cities. Jiayuguan is only slightly warmer at 12°C.
The seven-day outlook trends cooler by about 5.9°C. During that period, the provincial high peaks at 20.7°C and falls as low as 10.9°C. Cloudy conditions in the warmer cities sit alongside sunshine in some cooler locations, so the highest temperatures do not coincide uniformly with the sunniest skies.
The provincial low drops to -8.3°C. Keep a warm outer layer available for the colder hours rather than dressing only for the afternoon high. Layers that can be removed during milder daytime conditions offer a practical approach, especially when plans extend into the colder part of the day.
