Steve,

We often call it a "wash" around here (Las Vegas, Nevada (in the 
southwest US)).  Wikipedia, however, redirected me to arroyo.

 	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wash_(creek)

Whatever name we use, it would be quite nice to have a tag for it. 
Renderers, editors, etc. can handle the localization.

I'm reluctant to use seasonal to modify another water feature tag.  You 
may agree after reading the Wikipedia page.
