    Brimmed hats, sunglasses and sunscreen are generally a must at the annual Burning Man Festival to combat the scorching sun and blinding dust.

    But this year, some attendees probably wished umbrellas and galoshes were on their packing lists, after thousands were left stranded Saturday following heavy overnight rains.

    The close-to-an-inch of precipitation created mud-bath-like conditions in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert where the annual event takes place.

    “Conserve food, water, and fuel, and shelter in a warm, safe space,” the statement urged those stuck in the desert.

    Attendee Bobby White, who hosts the TV series Sailing Doodles, squelched through the mud in a YouTube video against a backdrop of gunmetal skies and soggy tents.

    In true Burning Man spirit, he said people are helping each other out — sharing warm clothes and phone chargers where they can — and music is blaring.
