re: Hurricane rafting at the Linq parking garageUnderrated comment. OP I can’t wait to see your videos from the lot, if the rain hits as predicted. The flooding at the Linq parking garage is almost comical, but add massive amounts of rain and this could be epic.

re: Hurricane rafting at the Linq parking garageI was in Vegas one time when t rained pretty good and I was absolutely mesmerized by the new river that flowed through that parking ramp. I've got a video of it somewhere, If I can find it I will post it.
