I believe it does rain about as often over the deserts as anywhere else. The difference is that because of the intense desert heat most of the rainfall evaporates before ever touching the ground.

What is the rain shadow effect associated with?
The rain shadow effect is associated with the process where moisture-laden air rises over a mountain range, cools, and releases precipitation on the windward side. As the air descends on the leeward side, it warms up and becomes dry, creating an area of reduced precipitation known as a rain shadow. This phenomenon often results in deserts or semi-arid regions on the leeward side of mountain ranges.
