Vegas Strip Under Water: Circa Sportsbook Flooded

It's something you don't hear often: Flooding on the Vegas Strip due to heavy rains.

That's exactly what occurred Thursday night as the airport, parking lots and entire Vegas Strip were consumed with flood waters.

Flooding from the Thursday night storms was not reserved just for the streets. Video footage showed staff mopping up the waters that flooded the Circa Sportsbook.

Video I received from an employee working near the sports book at Circa. Clean up after flooding that just occurred. You definitely don’t see this everyday. @8NewsNow #8NN

It was the second straight night of monsoonal storms in the Vegas area.  More storms were anticipated over the weekend.

Over an inch of rain had fallen over a short period of time in some areas.
