Caborca is nestled among hills in the Altar Desert of Northwestern Sonora.  With moderate winter and spring temperatures, the temperatures climb above triple-digits in May and stay there until October or November.  Because it has a very dry climate,
strong winds can bring localized dust storms as well as "dust devils," localized
plumes of swirling dust that resemble tornadoes, often reaching over 100 feet into
the air.  They're harmless, but provide an interesting sight when driving in the area.

Although rain is rare, when it happens it can bring a sudden deluge that causes
brief localized flooding.  Like Arizona, the area also has a monsoon season in late
summer that brings higher humidity and frequent dust storms or rain showers.
