Of course, cloud cover isn't the only cause of reduced insolation in desert-like environments:

Good point (and very effectively made).
I was thinking of our local deserts here, which you don't see sandstorms in very often (not sandy enough) - but my one trip into the Sahara ran into one of these things and they are pretty awesome.
Does the Mojave get these things or is it more rocky than sand ?
My sand filled, 6 year old eyes testify to the Mojave having sand storms. Ah, memories...
