Ah, right.. That is why deserts are so "wet". Its a bit more fracking
complicated than that. And, no, cooler temperatures do not "necessarily"
mean drier weather. The reason its dry here is "due to" the heat. The
lake isn't large enough for the huge desert around it to be positively
effected with rain, so the problem is that the rain either hardly ever
falls, and/or evaporates again before it hits. Most of the rain falls
farther inland, because it usually never gets "cold enough" for it to
condense and fall to the ground, until it gets farther north, and out of
the desert areas (or it runs into mountains, which.. tend to be high, so
kind of "collect" anything that hits them before it can evaporate again...)
