There are hot deserts and there are cold deserts. Antarctica is the largest desert on earth and the days and nights are both bitterly cold. Hot deserts are hot during the day but quickly cool at night. Some cold deserts can be quite hot in the summer but bitterly cold in winter. The Gobi Desert is a good example.
