Rains That Do Not Reach Earth

In the Colorado desert they have rain
storms during which not a single drop
of water touches the earth. The rain
can be seen falling from the clouds
high above the desert, but when the
water reaches the stratum of hot, dry
air beneath the clouds it is entirely alb
sorbed before falling half the distance
to the ground. 1t is a singular sight
to witness a heavy downpour of rain
not drop of which touches the ground
