RAIN IN THE DESERT..<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Only in the Desert can one inch of rain draw “Rave Reviews”!!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Oh Yes! People die and drown from a one inch rainstorm out in the desert.\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

A desert wash (also called a dry wash or arroyo) is a naturally formed, low-lying drainage channel in a desert that remains completely dry for most of the year.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Flash Floods: When it rains heavily, such as during summer monsoon storms, hard, dry desert soil cannot absorb water quickly. The runoff rushes down slopes and funnels into these low channels.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

As water tears through the channel, it scours the ground and carries sand, gravel, and boulders downstream.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Sudden Danger: A dry wash can transform into a deep, fast-moving flash flood in a matter of minutes, even if the storm happened miles away. For this reason, parking cars or camping inside a wash or driving across one can be extremely dangerous.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

You see numerous signs along the roads out in the desert warning drivers of the potential dangers of sudden rain storms.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

THE NFL (National Football League)<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We did not watch one Regular Season NFL game last year.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We ended yesterday’s Post with the following:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We are seriously contemplating watching the Kansas City Chiefs play the Denver Broncos IN Denver this afternoon. This is almost a “must win” for the Broncos because the Chiefs won the first game of their season beating the Broncos, a Division Rival, 31 to 10..<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We did watch the game between the Chiefs and the Broncos. We were 100% “In support of the Broncos.” It ended up being a most entertaining “nail biter” as the Chiefs were stopped at the Denver goal line when time ran out.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
