A possible effect of cosmophysical processes on the variability of the Earth's surface air layer temperature in the zone of the Mexican Northwest, an arid zone located in the latitudinal high pressures belt, around the Gulf of California. Both, the conventional spectral analysis and the autoregressive methods have been used to determine common cycles in cosmophysical and surface air layer temperature series. The predominance of a 22-y cycle in the air temperature and then the continuous influence of solar and geomagnetic activity on the Earth's weather and climate has been confirmed.
