Beatty sits in classic high desert country: tons of bright sunshine, very little rain,
clean dry air, and big temperature swings between day and night. In winter, the nearby higher mountains
can even get heavy snowfall while the town stays mostly dry and sunny.
Daytime heating can be intense, but once the sun drops behind the hills, the air cools
off fast—so even our hottest days usually come with pleasantly cool nights.
All that sunshine and low humidity mean water doesn’t stick around long. On average,
more than 100 inches (about 2,500 mm) of water can evaporate in a year—proof that Beatty is built for
blue skies, not umbrellas.
