It snowed here in Nov 2004 just before Thanksgiving. We had 3ft/~1m and were snowed in.
Oh yes, did I mention summer temps here are about 115F/46C? Last summer during a heat wave in July I read 133F/56C in my car in the middle of the city and 122/~43C in the middle of the desert driving home. Up where I live at 4,000ft/1220m it was 105F, very nice at that temperature.
Now let's see, it's almost winter and <70F/21C, I'm cold. I do not do snow, rain, sleet, or anything wet.
It can get into the 20sF/5-7C and we do get sandstorms Did you know that .5in/125mm in the desert can create a dangerous flashflood?
The desert is well known for it's extremes, I love it here.
