Climate Overview
Lima
Desert — unique foggy grey winters, warm sunny summers, almost no rain
Lima has the world's most paradoxical coastal desert climate. Despite being a tropical latitude, it rarely gets rain due to the cold Humboldt Current offshore. Summers (December–April) are sunny and warm; winters (June–October) are blanketed in garúa — a thick grey mist with drizzle that rarely lifts.
Sandy
Sandy in the south Salt Lake Valley at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon has unique weather from the canyon. Cold air drainage from the ski canyons flows through Sandy on clear nights providing natural cooling. The canyon entrance makes Sandy one of the valley's most ski-convenient communities.
