A very cold winter season.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Azerbaijan has 9 of the 11 world climate zones. While Baku has a mild 'sərt qış' due to the sea, regions like Nakhchivan and Qusar experience extreme continental 'sərt qış' with temperatures dropping to -30°C. The 'Çillə' periods are personified in folklore. 'Böyük Çillə' is seen as a strong, older brother, while 'Kiçik Çillə' is a short-tempered, mischievous younger brother who brings the most 'sərt' weather. During a 'sərt qış', Azerbaijanis eat 'Düşbərə' (tiny meat dumplings in broth) and 'Qutab' with greens or meat to stay warm. Drinking tea with 'kəklikotu' (thyme) is also a must. In mountain villages, 'sərt qış' means social isolation. Neighbors often gather in one house to tell stories and eat 'qovurma' until the snow thaws.
Sound like a local
Instead of saying 'Hava çox soyuqdur' (The weather is very cold), say 'Əsl sərt qışdır' (It's a true harsh winter) to show off your vocabulary.
Don't over-use it
If it's just a little chilly, 'sərt' sounds dramatic. Save it for when you actually see ice or heavy snow.

The 'Xəzri' factor
In Baku, a 'sərt qış' is defined more by the 'Xəzri' (north wind) than by the temperature. Even 2°C feels like -10°C because of the wind.
