I feel your pain. I grew up in Las Vegas, a place where, if you didn't have air conditioning in the dead of a 115 degree summer day, you got cooked. Literally. The desert winters felt surprisingly harsh, dropping temps into the 20's and 30's, a bitter cold for people accustomed to blazing summers.
In summer you are looking at a temperature of 38-42 degrees celcius (100-108 degrees fahrenheit.) In the winter it's a plesant but still hot 25-30 degrees celcius (77-86 degrees fahrenheit.) The great sandy desert is flat and as the name says sandy. This desert has sand dunes.
