Nasty Weather For Las Vegas

Las Vegas and most of Nevada has been hit with rain at lower elevations and snow in the mountains. Not only has it been cool to cold, it also has been pretty windy as well.
Up in Mount Charleston, they have closed off all the roads to the Town of Mount Charleston and the ski lodge, except the residents who live in Mount Charleston. Red Rock has gotten over 3 inches of rain since yesterday and waterfalls have been created.
I made the mistake of driving up to Mount Charleston to go sledding while it was snowing and it was a driving nightmare. Not for me, mind you, as I am from Wisconsin and I am used to driving in winter weather. The problem are those tried to go up to Mount Charleston to see snow for the first time in their life, which also means that they were driving in snow for the first time. Most of these knuckle heads either ran off the road and into the ditch or would be going 3 mph down the mountain and created miles long traffic jams. And of course, most of these people are from the South or Mexico and other countries in South America.

Ahh, but the best is yet to come. Tomorrow, we are expecting over an inch of rain in the Valley and 2 feet of snow above 7000 feet. For those of us who live in the Valley, the rain is very much appreciated because Lake Mead, where Vegas gets it drinking water, is slowly going down, so this storm is going to help us. But to those visiting Las Vegas, this weather sucks and you will probably want to stay inside. Casino's love it but if you are a visitor, you are thinking that Las Vegas gets 300 days of sunshine a year and the tourists who come this week get nasty weather.

So, in the words of Michael Conrad of Hill Street Blues:
