"Historic" Snowstorm Reached the World's Driest Desert: Rare Episode Intrigued NASA Specialists

A "historic" snowfall covered the Atacama Desert in northern Chile in August 2026, after the passage of two winter storms that brought snow to areas where precipitation is extremely rare. The Landsat 8, Landsat 9 and Terra satellites documented the extent of the phenomenon, which was distinguished by the progression of snow from the Andes mountain range to areas near the Pacific coast, crossing the hyperarid core of the desert. The episode was caused by a cut-off low, favored by the El Niño phenomenon, which created conditions for an abnormally wet winter in the region. The ALMA observatory, located on the Chajnantor plateau at about five thousand meters altitude, temporarily suspended operations. In coastal areas, heavy rain caused flash floods and mudflows, affecting thousands of people and causing damage to hundreds of homes.
