There is no limit by latitude for deserts. The Antarctic Desert is as far south as it could possibly be. The Gobi Desert is also located well north. Many deserts do occur between latitudes 30 and 35 north and south, however.

Is the Namib a cold desert?
The Namibian Desert is very dry due to the influence of the subtropical ridge, a subtropical zone with strong high pressure systems, which means dry descending, sinking air over the horse latitudes (the latitudes between 30 and 35 degrees south or north), which prevent any ascending movement and annihilates the cloud and rain formation. The subtropical ridge is formed by the general atmospheric circulation, more precisely formed by the Hadley Cell. The aridity of the Namibian Desert is also caused by the influence of a cold ocean current, come directly from the Poles, the Benguela Current which cools off the air along the coast of the South Africa. The Benguela Current prevent any strong air heating, thus preventing the air to lift, to rise up and to form clouds and precipitation although some fog, haze and low clouds are produced but enough rarely. The combinaison of the subtropical high pressure systems belt and the influence of the Benguela Current gives clear skies and sunny, dry weather to the Namibian Desert all the time.
