In the world’s hottest place ‘Death Valley’, such rain occurred for the fourth time in 1000 years

The place known as the hottest place in the world is Death Valley in California, USA. It is the driest place in America. However, climate change is changing the picture here. For the fourth time in 1000 years, America has seen such rain, causing flash floods in the valley. The incident has trapped more than a thousand people in California’s Death Valley National Park, forcing officials to temporarily close it.

According to reports, more than 60 cars of guests and employees were buried under the rubble at a historic luxury hotel in Death Valley, near the park headquarters in Furnace Creek.

About 500 guests and 500 employees were unable to leave the park due to rain in the area, as all roads in and out of Death Valley were closed. Park spokeswoman Amy Vine said Furnace Creek received 1.46 inches (3.7 cm) of rain. Earlier in 1988, there was 1.47 inches of rain.

Flash floods caused by monsoon rains are a natural part of Death Valley’s ecology. Park officials said 1988 was the warmest since 1936. At that time 1.47 inches of rain was recorded here.
