Tucson's latitude makes for mild, pleasant winters, and the altitude moderates summer temperatures and allows for cooler nights than in the lower deserts.
With over 300 days of sunshine per year, Tucson averages a high temperature of 82 and a low of 54.
In January when it's 40 below in Minnesota, the mercury points to a cool 65 here!
