Most of northern Mexico is dominated by the Sonoran and Chihuahuan deserts. As such, it has arid and semi-arid climates (Köppen BW and BS types, respectively). On high altitudes, along the Sierra Madre mountain ranges, you will find temperate climates with dry winters (Köppen Cw). Finally, on the northwestern Baja California Peninsula, a relatively small area has a Mediterranean climate (Köppen Cs), shared with Southern California.
