What April feels like
The ocotillo tips go red and the desert does its best work right before it shuts down for summer. This is the last stretch where a midday walk in Saguaro West is a pleasure rather than a project; after this, everything moves to sunrise.
Real rain shows up maybe one day all month; the rest stay dry. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy. about 8 afternoons top 90°.
