Answer: The person above me explains this better than I can but The most important characteristic of an arid climate is a lack of moisture. The soil is dry, the air is dry, and yearly precipitation is very low. They are found throughout the Middle East. Desert climates have hot summers and very little rainfall.

hello,

here is your answer:

**********

The most important characteristic of an arid climate is a lack of moisture. The soil is dry, the air is dry, and yearly precipitation is very low. They are found throughout the Middle East. Desert climates have hot summers and very little rainfall. The deserts of the Middle East receive very little rainfall. The temperature can climb as high as 40-45°C (104-113°F). Most Arid areas do not have regular seasons. However, some places do have changes in temperature depending on the latitude and the surrounding climates. So, since there are temperature differences, we can say there are 2 seasons, summer and winter.

**********

hope this helped,

:)
