notes:

This Spring the flowers came out in Death Valley as never seen before thanks to the heavy rains which turned the basin of the valley into a giant lake.

Anyhow some background on Death Valley, California from Wikipedia:

Death Valley is the lowest point in the western hemisphere, at 282 feet (86 m) below sea level. Generally, the lower the altitude of a place, the higher the temperatures tend to be. The valley radiates extreme amounts of heat, allowing for temperatures that are among the hottest on earth. The hottest temperature recorded in the U.S., and the second hottest in the world, was 134 °F (56.7 °C) at Greenland Ranch near the valley on July 10, 1913. The highest average high temperature in July is 116 °F (47 °C) with temperatures of 120 °F (49 °C) or higher being very common. The valley receives less than 2 in (50 mm) of rain annually. The Amargosa River and Furnace Creek flow through the valley, disappearing into the sands of the valley floor.
