Desert climate air motion; dry atmosphere near the surface and aloft; the exacerbated exposure to the sun where solar angles are always high. Cold desert climates ("BWk") usually feature hot (or warm in a few instances), dry summers, though summers are not typically as hot as hot desert climates. Unlike hot desert climates, cold desert climates tend to feature cold, dry winters. Snow tends to be rare in regions with this climate.
