"Death Valley could get SNOW for the first time in over 100 years: Weather forecast shows at least four inches is set to fall over two days this month" reports the Daily Mail. The article relates:
Mountains around the park are occasionally dusted with powder, but snow on the valley floor is exceedingly rare.
The last time any measurable amount fell was in January 1922, when half an inch was measured at a weather station at Greenland Ranch, according to the National Weather Service.
Only trace amounts have been recorded since then, mostly recently in 1974. But the park could see up to four inches of snow on January 17 and 18, according to a forecast by weather modelling service WXCharts.
