Weather is notoriously unpredictable, which is because it is influenced by the shape and position of mountains, and by oceans and ocean currents, and by wind patterns relating to the rotation of the Earth, and by the shifting angle at which a given location faces the sun as the Earth moves in its annual orbit, and by patterns of ice and glaciers, and by the inertial effect of previous weather patterms, as well as by greenhouse gases. The system is so difficult to predict that it is described mathematically as "chaotic". So, out of this chaos will come a certain amount of temperature extremes. If current concerns about global warming are valid, those extremes are going to tend toward extreme heat in the future, rather than extreme cold.

What causes temperature extremes in the deserts?
