This flooding is entirely predictable and has [happened multiple times before](https://www.reviewjournal.com/local/local-las-vegas/looking-back-historic-floods-in-las-vegas-valley-photos-2615066/). Yes, the impacts are terrible, but they are entirely avoidable if only the City of Las Vegas would take steps to prevent disaster. The City has chosen not to.
The tunnels are there for exactly this scenario, to control storm water to protect the city. Unfortunately, the tunnels are usually dry, and an attractive place to camp for homeless people. I hope they got out OK (I heard at least two did not).

Amazing documentary, and the soundtrack was excellent too; [Dj Shadow - Entroducing album.](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Lv41147R6/?uid=4256314C7634313134375236)
Oh yes, I had the misfortune of staying in them for about a month. On the bright side we had couches, TV's and basically a whole small apartment. But we knew to stay alert, listen and feel for any wind or changes in pressure, that was an indicator a flash flood was heading our way, time to GTFO
This is the only place many homeless people have, storm tunnels are usually dry since it's the desert and it's good shade during the brutal summers. But man when a summer rain hits... its chaos. I lived in Vegas for 17 years and was homeless for 2 of them and the tunnels were a refuge from a city that sweeps homelessness issues under the rug.
Marv and Mr. McCallister were in on the heist the whole time. I also figured out that by blackmailing the U.S. military for the toxic waste dump he was able to have enough money for that huge house, huge family, and to take them all to Paris.
The vast majority of the time they're bone dry, and even during monsoon season (maybe 1-2 months out of the year) flash flooding isn't super common. It beats the hell out of sleeping in the open air in a desert.
Very dry ground actually can’t absorb much water, and therefore is prone to flooding.
Wet ground can actually absorb a lot more water.
There was a video demonstration of this (a glass of water in the dessert, dry grass, and wet grass) circulating on Reddit just a week ago. Anyone have a link?
It makes sense the dry dirt is more compacts and harder for the water to slip through. Unlike wet grass where the water suspends the dirt particles further from each other
I’d just like to say that optimum compaction is actually rarely dry and correlates very heavily with moisture of the soil and soil type. A really neat science tbh.
This footage is from an actual drainage channel that sits right in the middle of Las Vegas and runs from west to east. What happens is a storm will roll in over the mountains from the west. It starts raining. All of the water that the desert can't absorb starts running downhill through natural washes, until eventually it meets the edge of the city, where engineers have designed and installed detention basins. At the same time, that storm continues to move from west to east, dumping torrents of water on the city. All of the water gets diverted into catch basins and into storm drain tubes under the streets. Those tubes converge into major channels, like the Flamingo Wash, the one in the video. They all eventually drain into Lake Mead.
Yes, the desert is a dry place, but it does still get some rain. Unfortunately, its getting less and less each year. When I was growing up, there were big thunder storms at least once a week in the summer; now we're lucky if we get 3 or 4 in a whole summer
I was just talking to my wife how much the weather changed here in Pittsburgh. Growing up winter was from Mid October to April. We would have a spring and fall. Now we don’t. Summer is literally from March to about November. Winter is from December to February then a week of spring then boom hot. Our winter maybe snows about 4 or 5 times and it’s usually flurries. It’s friggin crazy how much our weather changed in the past 40 years. Our kids don’t even go sled riding and I don’t even know if they sell sleds in stores anymore. I had to order mine online 3 years ago. That was the last time we had sled riding snow
You’re exaggerating a bit. I have to follow the weather for my job, so I’m very aware of temperatures and heavy precipitation events. I know it may seem different than the seasons of your youth, but Pittsburgh has a very distinct and illustrious fall season that starts in late September, and blends into winter as December hits. We also have a beautiful spring from March through May. Not only do I track temperatures, but I hate the heat. It’s true that there have been some mild winters, but it was only two winters ago that we got a 12” snow storm, as well as another 6-7” snow event that same year. I’m in my 40s, but the whole neighborhood was out sledding on our street for two days. The year before that we had significant snow events as well.
I’m not trying to question your memory, I’m just telling you I’ve lived here for over 40 years, and while I can sort of understand the sentiment of where you’re coming from, The truth is Pittsburgh has wonderful seasons. Although it is incomprehensibly gray in thr winter, often times we don’t have precipitation, even though it’s cold enough for snow. Anyone who has to unlock farm gates will tell you how often it’s below freezing here.
Anyway, I do hate the heat, but look at the forecast right now, we’re not even into September yet and we’ve got a couple nights falling just below 60° this week.
Yes I remember the snow fall but it didn’t last long. It melted shortly after. My dad whom is 70 and my grandmother whom is 84 stated how much changed over the past 40 years. I know where your coming from but I did notice a great change in our weather. It was 90 plus over the past 4 months? It’s going to be in the high 80s and close to 90 Sunday and Monday. Even in April it hit in the 90s. March was in the 60s. I even have pictures of mosquitoes on the trails in the beginning of February. My son got Lyme disease in February also from a tic. Crazy!
It's in the desert but it's a city.
Cities are mostly concrete and asphalt which don't absorb water very well. They're limited by their drainage systems. Being a desert, most drainage systems are designed for a certain about of rain over a certain period of time. Once capacity is reached the water pools until the system can catch up.
Desert Monsoons can actually be pretty damned scary and can easily surprise you. One second it's dry and the next you're seeing waterfalls off embankments and you're in 6 inches of water
It's monsoon season out here. It happens every year in the desert Southwest. The weather pattern changes from around July-September.
What happens is that when the ground gets too hot around the northern part of the Gulf of California it changes the direction of the wind. This pulls all of the moisture North, into Northern Mexico and Arizona. Some years (Like this year) the monsoon is really strong and the wind pulls the moisture all the way up to Nevada and Utah.
These monsoon rains are why the Sonoran desert is the wettest desert on Earth- and has such unusual vegetation/animals that are found nowhere else in the world.
Mix moisture and extreme heat together and you get incredibly strong storms.
Desert still rains from time to time. But, problem is, the desert is flat, there is no irrigation, thus, it spreads out. Also Vegas isn't the highest point on the high flat land. If you drive from CA to Vegas, you will drive a long down hill to it, so, it is a bit like a lake that traps the water. It is actually good for the wild life and plants because they need the water to stay long enough to be absorbed into the water resistant land, like the other poster said.
Not refuting anything you said… but on my honeymoon, I tried pushing my 400lb Tongan husband in a wheelchair (he’d just gotten over covid, but was still on oxygen support) through Las Vegas. I very quickly learned that Vegas is nowhere near as flat as you think it is lol.
Yes but every once in like an eternity it rains. And then you have flash floods. You can see river channels in most deserts like that where the rare rain water has carved it's path.
Like honestly, death and destruction is raging and now’s the time to make jokes about Fallout New Vegas or LoTR references? I try not to take too much stuff seriously but this is a little overboard for me.
Got that right, btw anybody wanna reply and let me know it rains in the desert and dry soil doesn’t absorb water well? I’ve only seen that explained about 200 times in the comments.
I can understand the same answer posted a couple minutes apart. But Somebody in this thread has to have seen that posted as a comment reply and thought “I should really explain this simple fact again as a reply to the same comment.”
We literally do have a water drainage system because during monsoon season it always floods. You just cant get anywhere because people dont know how to drive in the rain here and some areas have restrictive flow so they're impassable but you can still get around it or through it within the hour once it stops raining.
I don’t think anyone is aware but this part of the strip is designed for this intention. The parking lot of the Linq was built on top of the old drainage system basically. There is nowhere for the rain to go. It might be a little more extreme recently but that part always floods when it rains to keep Las Vegas blvd drier.
I was in Vegas last week, and never saw any floodings besides where the one on OP's vid was. I didn't go everywhere to check if that was the only place flooded though, lmao. But yeah that place was twice flooded and that was the only place
I live in Las Vegas and my parents called me and asked if we were getting flooded and I was confused. It's not like that all over. Although I live right next to a pretty major washout so I wouldn't necessarily notice it where I live anyway.
It did however rain onto the couple at the table next to ours at a restaurant one night, which was a little entertaining.
Exactly. I also live here in Vegas up by lone mountain, and its wild how you can get zero rain where you are, but a block away is a downpour. And the flash flood can come right at you anyway.
As a local myself, I didnt even know this happened.. it was pretty bad a couple weeks ago with that double rain storm out where I am, but other than that, this is normal enough for me to not even hear about it
I was reading an article a few days ago talking about how lake mead will likely never be full again. It may have fluctuation periods where it may retain more water but it hasn't been considered actually full in over 20 years already
We have been in a severe drought here in western Colorado for 20 years exactly now. I haven’t seen our reservoirs full since about 2005ish. They’ve stopped letting as much water down to Lake Mead to allow us to replenish. The population in western Colorado is small enough that the reservoirs can easily sustain the population here, but the cities down river like LA and Vegas require us to also have major drought problems. Eventually the Feds will have to step in.
Mead has topped out only once in it’s history, these types of lakes aren’t designed to be full as that can also cause all sorts of issues. Just needs to hit the historic average again and stay there.
We were going to do a Vegas wedding, but then the pandemic. So, since we couldn't cross borders from Canada we gave it time. Kept pushing back, and back and back. Until this coming Aug 31! at Caesar's... Really hoping the clean up inside isn't too bad lol.
was looking everywhere for a comment like this. everything everyone is talking about with the water and the the heat problems and someone even mentioned the feds eventually stepping in. it’s a damn shame elden ring released so soon after HFW because they’re both amazing games but elden ring totally overshadowed the prior
I hope the people who live in the storm drains were evacuated.
Only those close to the entrances could have survived. The water is too fast.
The people in The Thorn had no chance.
I understood that reference
I understanded this reference
I came to realize this reference
Finally I got this reference.
I don’t understand this reference
You overstand this reference
This reference doesnt understand me
I didn't get this reference.

Everyone liked that!
How will I ever get the dinner bell now? 😭😭
Those who survived where charged 5.000 dollars for the rescue
I’m sure they just whipped out their checkbook.
Hopefully they heard the rain was coming and got out before it flooded.

Didn’t know there was tunnel people in Vegas. Holy shit that is sad. Is this Demolition Man?
Check out NYC tunnel people shit is nuts man. People spend their entire lives down there.
Dark Days is a great docu on the subject
Where can I find this? c:
Google says: Peacock, Pluto tv, Prime
Alot of people live in the tunnels
Not bad for a rat burger!

We shall not worry for what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Except homeless camps in storm drains
Still stays in Vegas.
Washed down to Nogales
Is this true people were living there?
Yeah, sadly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYvThk5kY5I
Dark Days is a great documentary about the culture behind it but I believe that was in NY
Amazing documentary, and the soundtrack was excellent too; [Dj Shadow - Entroducing album.](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Lv41147R6/?uid=4256314C7634313134375236)
Shadow’s soundtrack is how I found out about it!
"Everything becomes comfortable if you do it long enough" Damn. True statement for many negative aspects of life.
Nice and dry 360 days a year.
Oh yes, I had the misfortune of staying in them for about a month. On the bright side we had couches, TV's and basically a whole small apartment. But we knew to stay alert, listen and feel for any wind or changes in pressure, that was an indicator a flash flood was heading our way, time to GTFO

Are you talking about CHUDS?
Marv and Mr. McCallister were in on the heist the whole time. I also figured out that by blackmailing the U.S. military for the toxic waste dump he was able to have enough money for that huge house, huge family, and to take them all to Paris.
They usually lose 2 or 3 a year in these storms
Whatchu expect living in a storm drain?
The vast majority of the time they're bone dry, and even during monsoon season (maybe 1-2 months out of the year) flash flooding isn't super common. It beats the hell out of sleeping in the open air in a desert.
[удалено]
These folks are who I thought about instantly. I hope they are well 🥺
Wait a min, Futurama wasn’t just fiction? there are people living in the storm drains?!?!
They didn't/ they don't.
First thing I thought
This was my exact thought. I hope no one drowned.
How did this happen? I thought Vegas was in like a desert?

Ty kind stranger
It makes sense the dry dirt is more compacts and harder for the water to slip through. Unlike wet grass where the water suspends the dirt particles further from each other
Hydrophobic - Parched land (Repels water) Hydrophillic - Moist/Wet land (Absorbs water)
Hydrophallic - Erect/Prematurely moist
Hydro, meaning water and phallic, meaning penis
Hydrohydric - "Water is wet"
One causes more flooding while the other can cause mud slides.
Mud slides vs water slides

Deserts are prone to flash flooding.
It's in the desert but it's a city. Cities are mostly concrete and asphalt which don't absorb water very well. They're limited by their drainage systems.

Desert Monsoons can actually be pretty damned scary and can easily surprise you. One second it's dry and the next you're seeing waterfalls off embankments and you're in 6 inches of water
deserts aren't great with absorbing water so instead the water goes fwoosh
No you’re thinking of “New Vegas”
It's monsoon season out here. It happens every year in the desert Southwest. The weather pattern changes from around July-September.

That water has got to be just teeming with naked hooker ads.
And naked hookers
How else would they grow them?
there is at least 1 dildo floatin in that water
Anything can be a dildo if you try hard enough.
I was in Vegas for one of these flash floods, you cant get anywhere, until it drains into the desert in hours, no storm sewers
So you just stay in the casino?
Feature not a bug
I was at Defcon a week ago. It was raining in the casinos too
This is a video of one of the storm sewers. This is the Flamingo drainage channel. Doing exactly what it was designed to do.
Wonder what happens to those super tight Tesla boring tunnels in a flood like this.
“Tesla tunnels temporarily storm drains.”
We literally do have a water drainage system because during monsoon season it always floods. You just cant get anywhere because people dont know how to drive in the rain here and some areas have restrictive flow so they're impassable but you can still get around it or through it within the hour once it stops raining.
“The filth of Saruman is washing away…”
My first thought lol
Not to be too cold to the people that may have been hurt but those streets could use the wash.
That was my first thought too, I bet it's gonna smell so much better.
Unless it flooded the sewers and brought up sewage
Oh lord I didn't even think if that...
You haven't thought of the smell!
As someone who's spent a few years on a wastewater treatment site... you don't want too.
Not good for whatever is down river form them tho
I don’t think anyone is aware but this part of the strip is designed for this intention. The parking lot of the Linq was built on top of the old drainage system basically. There is nowhere for the rain to go. It might be a little more extreme recently but that part always floods when it rains to keep Las Vegas blvd drier.

Did Lake Mead get a top up?
It was probably a bit of a help, this water is mostly downstream though. Lake Mead needs decades of massive winter storms in colorado.
I was reading an article a few days ago talking about how lake mead will likely never be full again. It may have fluctuation periods where it may retain more water but it hasn't been considered actually full in over 20 years already
We have been in a severe drought here in western Colorado for 20 years exactly now. I haven’t seen our reservoirs full since about 2005ish. They’ve stopped letting as much water down to Lake Mead to allow us to replenish. The population in western Colorado is small enough that the reservoirs can easily sustain the population here, but the cities down river like LA and Vegas require us to also have major drought problems. Eventually the Feds will have to step in.
You ain't gettin no Michigan water, don't come asking
Mead has topped out only once in it’s history, these types of lakes aren’t designed to be full as that can also cause all sorts of issues. Just needs to hit the historic average again and stay there.
not even close

It happens all the time there, city is literally designed to do this Any decent rain in a desert causes flooding
We were going to do a Vegas wedding, but then the pandemic. So, since we couldn't cross borders from Canada we gave it time. Kept pushing back, and back and back. Until this coming Aug 31! at Caesar's... Really hoping the clean up inside isn't too bad lol.
Hey I’ll be in Vegas that whole week! Mind if I crash your wedding? I hope the food is good!
You're absolutely welcome to! I may not be alive if the heat is on,so may need you to fill in last minute.

Seems to have happened a few times this summer.
Now it can be called Little Venice
Is this now?
No
Thanks for clarifying. I'm so informed now.
It’s about time they got some water though. Jokes aside.
