Tiffany and I were in Las Vegas a couple of days ago for a trade show, when our flight back was delayed because of lightning near the airport. We don't usually associate rain with Las Vegas, but occasionally it does rain there. And when it rains heavily, it floods, as shown by this photo above taken by Neatoramanaut Jen at the corner of Tropicana and Boulder Highway (Thanks, Jen!)
Deserts are THE places for flash floods. We got stuck on a hill waiting for one to pass by several years ago in northern Nevada.
