The vast desert region of southern California east of Los Angeles
has a typical desert climate. This area, which includes Palm Springs,
Palm Desert and Rancho Mirage receives only 15-20 days of rainfall
per year for a total of 4.77 inches. The days are mostly sunny
and warm and nights are cool from fall through late spring. Summers
turn hot to very hot, with occasional high clouds, and warm, balmy
evenings May through October. The humidity levels are very low,
so even when the mercury climbs to 100 degrees, it feels comfortable
in the shade.
