This climate is close to Astrakhan, but with drier and sunnier winters.
Your desert is not very sunny in summer for typical desert. It's good.
Summer maximum in rainfall is also nice, as well as sunny winter.
And you correctly defimed summer as hot.
I will give you C/C-.
Your description of the climate says it has a summer maximum in rainfall but you placed all the rainfall in winter. Correct the weatherbox.
Southern hemispheres exist!
In case it isn't clear, this area is in the southern hemisphere of a fictional world. That's the reason why the hottest month is January and coldest is July.

Oh! I saw the snowfall figure and confused it with the total precipitation figure.
Also, I know that southern hemisphere has opposite seasons to the northern hemisphere.
I voted D just because I don't care much for desert climates, although the temps aren't too bad overall. Reminds me of a drier Denver, albeit with reversed seasons.

As per the top of the weatherbox, 1642 meters above sea level (just over one mile).
I’ve really never been a huge fan of desert or dry climates. With all this, the only desert climates I would find even remotely livable are the subtropical desert climates, since they are able to grow tropical or subtropical vegetation with irrigation of course, otherwise all the deserts which are not subtropical are a complete turn off IMHO. I’d probably give this desert climate a C- or a D+ if it’s able to grow palm trees; if it can’t then this climate would get a D- at best in my book. Seeing that this desert climate is a mid latitude desert climate, I’d give it a D- or even an F+.
