After the rain the desert looks like ocean without water. Catus and shrubs look like coral and seaweed. Never noticed that before..🤔
I have thought the same thing...this area is lower than sea level and use tobe a shallow in land sea.
most desert they're used to be ocean afaik
Can smell the fragrance of soil ....sooooo satisfying
How?? Which device??
@@MehediHasan-gx5gw lol
Not sure I follow... Do you always sniff dirt???
The first rain after a long hot summer. There is a specific smell. But only for thoes who are aware and out side only lasts for about 5-10 min once everything is soaked its gone. Yes there is a magical smell and a desert would be the same but probably more so
Haha ikr
I thoroughly enjoyed that. The only problem was it didn't go on for long enough. Everything looked so bright and refreshed after a drink. Rain is a blessing
I COULD IMAGINE HOW MUCH MIGHT BE THE PLANTS WERE HAPPY TO DRINK 💧
The plants were probably drowning in the water because they are not used to holding a lot of water, so their roots are suffocating (roots need air). So no, the plants would not be happy to drink even if they did have emotions. :(
Smile Doggo wow, just wow....
@@TheMattc999 Man aint wrong
@@TheMattc999 Yup, kind of a party pooper comment,
but some of those plants were damaged by this rain.
Someone has to point out the obvious fact, which I'm pretty sure, some actually didn't know.
Ravioli Ravioli this rain in the California desert is rare. So whatever vegetation gets it, helps them last until the next rainstorm. They hardly ever “drown”
What a great day the desert meets the water! Like two old friends meet each other after a long time. Amazing beautiful this desert!!
And thats why under no circumstances ever do you pitch tent in a dry riverbed. Terrific vid thanks for sharing
Hi beautiful
@@alwaysuseless I made the mistake of camping in a dry river bed when I was younger to keep winds off. Yeah it got deep quick
You have to love the creek beds when the wheels are off are dry and out of nowhere it floods.
Oh man, what a relaxing, satisfying and beautiful idea! I enjoyed the sight of seeing a desert landscape getting that rare drink that I am sure it cherishes when it does get it. Knowing those plants are storing the water so they will have it slowly as needed is so amazing. Also, the awesome water sounds made all the thoughts that flooded (pun intended😋) my mind, made it all the better. So, thanks for no music or commentary. I usually don’t mind commentary, but when nature is at work, I prefer to hear its commentary😉
The amount of water is dangerous for the plants. It will drown them. Plants can indeed drown (crazy I know)
@@mottmann2898 In 2105, Tampa Bay area of Florida has a monsoon month of August. I had to dig out all my newly planted beach sunflowers because they started to drown. The ground got so saturated I had a pond in my front yard. The very first year I ever did drought tolerant gardening, we had a lot of rain, too. Lost a bunch of plants because I was a novice then.
Nice! Life's an endeavor!
The amount of beauty in this video cannot be described!
I Love Rain....✌
rains are rare in desert.THEREFORE Whenever it rains it sites became as rewarding as any tropical garden
Thx for vid it’s helpful :D
What a beautiful sight.
these cactus are the gems of a desert. great work
Cacti
They're okay. Saguaro are the best though
Beautiful, a lot of cactus variety.🏜️
This is a beautiful video, well made. The sounds are so relaxing! Thanks for sharing and take care out there! New sub! ♥

Beautiful video , watching raining on plants in decert my heart fill with joy
Beautiful video! Good job! Reminds me of the big flood that came through Ocotillo in September of '77. Hurricane Kathleen parked itself over the top of the mountains, right where the old Desert View Tower is. Six inches of rain fell in six hours. A wall of water a mile wide and 30 feet high came through Ocotillo. You can still see the scar it left by using the satellite view tool on Google maps. Thank God the Winter people had not yet arrived. Took out the town, the old SD&AE railroad, and a good-sized chunk of I-8.
Didn't know that really intresting.
A mile wide and 30 feet tall? Exaggerate much? Yes 3 people died in the floods, but think about your numbers for a second.
I know exactly what this smells like. It smells like life.
Only time when the desert looks and smells beautiful. . When it rains
LumberJack Because that is the only time the desert itself looks and smells like life
You two apparently need an education on the desert. Grab a book.....
I wish i was there right at this time.
Would argue desert nights are better than most. Solitude, vast plains & starry skies
Vladimir_Bone Spur_tRump Deserts get so much hate yet they are such beautiful places. The Sonoran Desert is such a beauty with its abundance of Saguaro Cacti, Cholla, and shrub life and in the spring the desert comes to life with flowers of vibrant colors and red and orange sunsets. Another beautiful desert location is Sedona which I’m sure you know tons about. People are missing out and I guess they’ll never see the beauty.
When it rains, it pours indeed
my thirst has been quenched by watching this video, such a relaxing view
Beautiful video, desert colors are incredibly diverse.
Love the desert (born and raised). It's so great that you got this on video!! I can still smell it...
Never thought a desert can look this beautiful
Glad you liked it thanks

This was so interesting and satisfying to watch. I was enthralled by the rain and sound, I could almost smell that new fresh scent shortly after a rainfall. I’m not a fan of rain but I found it beautiful in the desert.
Thanks you!

Very nice video. I loved the variety of desert plants. :-)
Lovely.

That's actually great ..thanks for capturing it 🌸
nice one....
Wonderful. Thanks.
Very good video that cant be imagine.
Cool Video. Thank you for sharing.
Great vid, thank you.
Flooding like this on "Amargosa River" between Las Vegas and Tonopah in Navada. It's actually a dry wash of course, except when it floods like this. ☺
This was very relaxing to watch! Thank you
Wow what a amazing place
Nice video. It pays to stay attentive in certain terrain. I could just hear the plants sucking and slurping the bounty of water. The best i could come up with to imitate the sound in my head would be " thrthrthrthrthrthr".
Stunning footage. Great job.
Hermoso!!!!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Que hermoso desierto con lluvia gloria al REY DE. REYES Y SEÑOR DE SEÑORES!!!
No existe dios
Mother Nature❤❤
Beautiful video. Very good that you show us how it starts, how it finds the way down, how it grows bigger and bigger. How much greener the landscape is by the water. Amazing good. Thank you very much. ❤👍
Wow that was beautiful never seen anything like it
Magnificent

It's not a silent killer. It's a life saver.

I just had moved to this area in octillo 1 month prier and the 18th is my son's birthday. I dont remember this storm but I live in the very West of Octillo Wells so its totally possible it didnt reach my home. Beautiful place for thunderstorms in the Summer's
Relaxing....soothing
Wow alot of cactus..
Precioso paisaje, maravilloso video! Gracias!
Beautiful.
This helped me understanding my chapters in Geography.
Preserve this water. Control the ground water. Your desert will become green my dear American.
Beautiful 🎃
Thank you!
Brilliant video. I was searching for this kind of video since I never watched rains in desert and want to see how a rain affects the area that is characterised for the lake of water.
beautiful video very interesthing...thank,s..
Wow!
Even almighty God feeds the plants and animals in the wild.👼👍
The same almighty God doesn't raise a finger as it watches men rape and murder little children. What a special piece of shit you look up to.
My friend with all do respect, I don't think it's God that ruined the world its people like me and you that ruined it so we can only blame ourselves
Beautiful place
My dog used to love when the washes where flooded and he was a white dog and would come home orange lol miss the desert
good place
I can only imagine a supercell in a desert!
Good “Dry desert vs raining desert” video.
Nice shoot :)
My aunt lives in a desert type of town in California. She sends me photos and stuff about the town. She also posts photos on her Facebook. It's pretty where she lives.
