Badwater Basin in Death Valley, California, is one of the driest places on Earth. In August, Hurricane Hilary dropped a year's worth of rain in a single day. Floodwaters have filled the ephemeral lake to a depth of about 60 cm. But the lake may evaporate in the next weeks. The scenes were acquired October 25, 2023 and November 10, 2012; cover an area of 24 by 28.5 km, and are located at 36.3 degrees north, 116.8 degrees west. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA26197
