Recent thunderstorms

Last Saturday afternoon, May 30th, the Black Rock Desert received some direct hits from a series of thunderstorms. Here is Sunday's satellite pic, taken at noon

The bright blue ellipse immediately north of Trego is a small lake. Lighter and darker shades of blue indicate a wet surface. A large thunderstorm is developing over the Granite Mountains on the left edge.
