The arid city of Las Vegas received heavy rainfall inundating the streets and the casinos for the second time in the span of two weeks, making the year’s monsoon the wettest in a decade.
Waters flowing all around paved their way inside the Casinos through the ceiling showing several videos making a round on social media which have gone viral now.
A similar warning was issued by the National Weather Services earlier to not ply through the heavy rainwater flooding. A video posted by Sean Sable on Twitter shows rainwater pouring from a height directly on the table placed on the floor of the Casino.
While several other videos are on round showing how Vegas residents are plying with all the difficulties in the flooded streets. The desert storm — the second in just two weeks — comes in a city that gets less than 0.4 of inches of rainfall in July on average, according to the National Weather Service.
Which made this year’s monsoon the wettest in a decade? Already, Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas has received 1.28 inches of rain this monsoon season, which goes from mid-June to the end of September. That’s more than any year since 2012.
“We’re starting to sound like a broken record here, but thunderstorms are possible yet again today as well as flash flooding,” said the National Weather Service for Las Vegas in a Tweet on Friday.
