Temperatures on Mount Everest vary significantly with altitude, generally decreasing as elevation increases. At the summit, temperatures can drop to as low as -80°F (-62°C) during winter, while even in the warmer months, they rarely exceed -10°F (-23°C). The temperature gradient typically sees a decrease of about 3.5°F (2°C) for every 1,000 feet (300 meters) ascended. This extreme cold, combined with high winds, creates a harsh environment for climbers.
