The summers in the Chihuahuan Desert of west Texas can be quite hot, sometimes pushing 115 degrees or more. Summer evenings are usually quite pleasant though. Winters are generally quite mild and it is not unusual to have temperatures in the 60s and 70s. Rarely does the temperature drop below freezing for more than a few hours. Snow is uncommon but not unknown. It rarely stays on the ground more than a few hours.

Most of the desert's northern latitudes have both Hot Desert (Köppen BWh) and Cool Desert (Köppen BWk) climates. Rainfall in these regions averages between 300 and 600 millimeters (12-24 inches) per year, and temperature variations are pronounced, between 5°C (41°F) on winter up to 42°C (107°F) on summer months.

Clarification:

The parts of the U.S. in the Chihuahuan Desert have a mild Mediterranean climate. Rainfall averages well below 10 inches per year. Most precipitation occurs during the summer monsoon months from June through September. Summers can be quite hot and winter can bring a few nights of freezing temperatures but most winter days are quite pleasant.
