Your not showing us the map so we can not help
The Coriolis force deflects air to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere.
<span>1 inch of rain per year is less than many
of the world's most arid places get.
That's a real desert, and
probably could not support any grass.</span>
In the Sahara desert, which occupies half of the continent of Africa, the
annual rainfall ranges from 0.8 to 3.9 inches per year. You can see that
1 inch per year is near the bottom of the Sahara's range !
Can u put a picture of it but my guess is that in summer if it is night it would be brighter than winter
