The desert region of southern California, east of Los Angeles and just southwest of Barstow is a unique area for weather with much greater extremes of temperature and season than the coastal areas. Summer highs can be in excess of 100 degrees and it is mostly dry all over, with occasional heavy showers over the high desert and mountain areas. The air quality in this region is excellent which gives way to bright sunny days and star filled skies at nights. Intensely hot during the summer, it becomes more bearable during the winter months when temperatures are comfortable and nights are chilly. What rain there is in this area usually occurs most frequently and heavily November through March, but the average rainfall for the area is less than 4 inches per year.
