GIVE MEDAL!!! What is the climate in northern and southern Nevada. You would REALLY help me :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Climate[edit] Nevada is the driest state in the United States.[19] It is made up of mostly desert and semiarid climate regions, daytime summer temperatures sometimes may rise as high as 125 °F (52 °C) and nighttime winter temperatures may reach as low as −50 °F (−46 °C). While winters in northern Nevada are long and fairly cold, the winter season in the southern part of the state tends to be of short duration and mild. Most parts of Nevada receive scarce precipitation during the year. Most rain that falls in the state falls on the lee side (east and northeast slopes) of the Sierra Nevada. The average annual rainfall per year is about 7 inches (18 cm); the wettest parts get around 40 inches (100 cm). Nevada's highest recorded temperature is 125 °F (52 °C) at Laughlin on June 29, 1994 and the lowest recorded temperature is −50 °F (−46 °C) at San Jacinto on January 8, 1937. Nevada's 125 °F (52 °C) reading is the third highest temperature recorded in the U.S. just behind Arizona's 128 °F (53 °C) reading and California's 134 °F (57 °C) reading.

Wikipedia is unreliable and I cant use that information

OpenStudy (animelover98):

I am not sure which information you are looking for specifically. This document is broken into the subcategories of a climate. I hope this helps, it is a reliable document due to the "edu" ending. http://www.wrcc.dri.edu/narratives/NEVADA.htm
