Good luck pitching a tent on exoplanet WASP-76b, the bloody raindrops here are made out of molten iron

If it's tidally locked (so not rotating) and the iron is being transported from the hot side to the cold side, it will eventually all be on the cold side so the iron rain will stop. Am I missing something??
