What type of dermatitis can this be?

Was able to find this forum and was wondering if anyone seen this before? I've had this for awhile but (I currently don't have insurance, last Dr visit was awhile back) and it would come up itchy like dry skin and then starts from my arms and then legs? Nothing painful but really ithcy. Im not sure if its from not me putting lotion or showering in hot water all the time. I do notice I get it during hot dry weather or cold dry weather.

I attached two picture in my profile, one of being on my arm (both arms are like this) and one on my front leg part but only these places.

Thank you for any help!

It's really not possible to diagnose the cause of rashes over the internet.  However, having dry skin can certainly cause intense itching, from the dryness.  Try moisturizing lotion and see if that helps.
