Unless the climate has drastically changed since I was stationed in Twentynine Palms (about an hour away), it barely ever rained there. And it rarely snowed, it snowed one time in the 3.5 years I was there and it was quite a shock to people that had been there for far longer than myself. It did hail fairly often though even though it never stayed on the ground for very long (if at all).
- x0054 11y agoI have been to 29 Palms a few times, and the climate does differ quite a bit. It doesn't rain in Yucca a lot of the time, only about 10 days a year, I would say, but when it rains, it pores. Those pictures in the snow were taken in Joshua Tree National Park, about 5-8 miles from 29 Palms. But I do have to say that crossing into 29 Palms, you can feel the temperature going up. Not sure why, maybe it's lower.
