    “Southern Nevada” and “Los Angles” are very different.

      Thank you! Clearly the map maker has never been to Las Vegas and Los Angeles in the summer. VASTLY different. There’s a reason LA is the second biggest city in America and the weather is a huge part of it. Surfing weather vs Death Valley lite.

        And I doubt that they have been to Spain. Central Spain is -5º in the winter to 40º+ in the summer, and dry AF. Central Spain is a plateau, elevation 700m, so it has no buffering from the coast. I very much doubt you’d have that in a coastal region.

          Los Angeles is not a desert. Los Angeles has an enormous agriculture industry surrounding the area - farms don’t work well in a desert. LA is a type of savanna, specifically an oak savanna, compared to the high, dry desert of southern Nevada. It isn’t a minor climate shift - they are two radically different environments. The only thing that they share in common is getting hot in the summer.
