@BillBellis We can hope. We really need a tropical system to come and dump area wide for like 2-3 days straight. But with manageable amounts at a time obviously

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

0.16" of rain today from that quick heavy downpour at Tropicana and valley view.

@NWSVegas To bad it missed the airport

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@dexcom this is completely unacceptable. Over 50points difference makes a huge difference as to what I need to do. Do better.

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@Eric_Fink Do you mean coldest?

@NWSVegas with all this rain coming over the next few days. Wondering is there any risk of us setting daily rainfall records for Las Vegas?

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@NWSVegas We'll be close to it!

Btw, as normal, paradise road coming out airport has a ton of standing water and flooding.

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@NWSVegas looking north from strip towards severe warned storm

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@NWSVegas Can we get something measurable at the airport finally?

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@NWSVegas when will the KESX radar be back up and running?

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

Great job to the @NWSVegas forecast office on issuing the severe thunderstorm warnings! (Which verified).

Unfortunately, lots of damage being reported.

Remember: a warning does NOt require there to be rain or lightning.

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@NWSVegas McLeod and Tropicana.
Entire road of power lines and lights down.

[Meteorologist Matthew P. @Midatlanticswx]

@NWSVegas dust devil and measured wind gust of 63mph at my location.
(Valley view and Tropicana).

Only minor damage. (Flags blown over, trash blown around).

@TWCAlexWilson why no mention of the severe thunderstorm warning and now DUST STORM warning for downtown las Vegas including the strip?
