A high desert climate
-
6/3/2008
Victorville is one of several cities in California's Mojave Desert. Many people think of sand dunes when they think of deserts but a high desert is quite different. While summers bake in 110+ degrees winters chill your bones with temps in the 20s. Another oddity is the amazing wind. The seasons are sprinkled with episodes of 50 mph gails that sand blast yout car windsheild leaving micro-pits that reflect the setting sun. People either love everything about this climate or hate everything about this climate, like the High Desert itself there is no moderation.
