Usually in the summer months it also rains and when it does, it pours like cats and dogs. From June to August is winter time in Alice Springs and in this period average temperature is around 5°C. In the winter months the climate is very dry so it is also the most dusty time of the year. At night the weather gets more colder so it is recommended to wear special warm clothes.
