Watch: Las Vegas Strip Impacted By Flooding In Rare Storm

Las Vegas is one of the driest cities in the US, except for Thursday night, as a severe thunderstorm rolled into the casino district and wreaked havoc. 

Video footage shared on Twitter shows floodwaters flowing through Sin City’s streets. Other videos captured the moment when water poured into casinos. 

One social media user filmed the fast-moving storm sweeping through Vegas like a hurricane.
