Mayor Ralph Becker issued a "stage one advisory," the first of five steps in
the city's contingency plan for dealing with drought. No water-use

hour drive north-northwest of Houston. The two cities’ climates, albeit
similar in some ways, possess marked disparities ... 阅读全帖 |

am not sure if she is right though now.
Anyway, after several investigations, I think both has very dry snows

the other down.
So the reason really depends on which resort or even which lift you go.

发帖数: 2243 | 15 Here is the details.
Atacama Desert is commonly known as the driest place in the world,
especially surroundings of the abandoned Yungay town[9] (in Antofagasta
Region, Chile).[10] The average rainfall in the Chilean region of
Antofagasta is just 1 millimetre (0.04 in) per year. Some weather stations
in the Atacama have never received rain. Evidence suggests that the Atacama
may not have had any significant rainfall from 1570 to 1971.[5] It is so
arid that mountains that reach as high as 6,885 me... 阅读全帖 |
