The Night The Sky Caved In

posted in Las Vegas |

Apparently, last night we were deluged with rain.

I was inside the Mandalay Bay all night, so I was oblivious to what was going on outside.  I saw some flashes of lightning on my way to the show at about 7pm and everything was fine on my way home at about 1:30am … but during the time  I was inside, I apparently missed one of the largest downpours to hit The Strip area in what some of my neighbors are describing as “the largest downpour I can remember”.

I don’t remember a forecast for such a storm, but as has been noted before, Las Vegas meteorologists suck.

I’m sure they are claiming victory because some chance of rain was predicted for last night.

The sun shines on a dog’s ass every now and then, and there is no better example of a dog’s ass than a Las Vegas weatherman.
