So if you saw yesterday's photo looking south along West Side Road, this one was taken five minutes earlier, but looking north rather than south. You can see that I'm standing in bright sunlight yet less than a mile away a band of rain is sweeping across the panamint Range and more specifically, Galena Canyon.
Death Valley records 2.36 inches (60mm) of rain annually. Curiously this rain just hovered over the hills. I had a few drops fall on my windshield as I continued my drive but no heavy rain at all. Indeed, I didn't get wet till about four hours later and then it wasn't rain, it was snow! But that's an image for another day.
