What is the average temperature like in the desert?

Question

I want to use desert terrain in a role playing game.

I was wondering, what is the average temperature in the desert both during the day and at night.

Answer 1

Well, typically in the deserts of Southern California during a summer day it would be about 105-110, and fall to 75-80 in the morning.  In the winter it's about 30-35 degrees cooler than that.

Answer 2

Arizona can get Up to 120 degrees. however ive lived In twenty-nine palms california with a high of 115 to 120 degrees in the summer, & 89 to 90 In the spring & fall.  it really does not snow In twenty -nine Palms because That Is in the middle of a desert. its a milatary base where my dad still lives. so winter Is almost like mid spring or  fall there.. its hardly ever  below 75 degrees.

Answer 3

Temperature ranges can be over 120 degrees in the afternoon and 70-80s at night during the summer months and very dry too.
