Weatherscapes: Anza-Borrego Desert State Park – Weather and Wildflowers of the Desert.

Anza-Borrego Desert State Park in southern California is known for its rugged desert features, including knife-edge ridges, deep valleys, and broad plains of rock. The park experiences less than 6 inches of rain per year, making timing crucial for the emergence of wildflowers. The best blooms typically occur after above-average rainfall in December and January, followed by sunny and warm February weather. This can result in an explosion of color known as a "super bloom." The park is also home to diverse wildlife, including desert bighorn sheep. [Extracted from the article]
