Hell Freezes Over

Here’s pictorial proof that Hell has, indeed, frozen over. Up to six inches of snow have been dumped on the main Las Vegas valley, with Summerlin, Henderson and Green Valley being hit the hardest.

As of December 18 another ten inches is forecasted forcing something that is frequently seen in the northern states but not to much here: Schools being closed because of snow. Nellis AFB released people early pending a strong storm which brought flurries around 4PM. Some casinos released non-essential people early. People in Las Vegas can’t drive, anyway, so fender-benders are up drastically: good for body shops in town. A lot of trees and other flora have been damaged, including tree limbs falling from the weight of snow and ice.

This also proves that, despite movie mythology, Las Vegas is NOT 120 F all year long, it DOES get damned cold during the winter, with an average daytime temp in the low forties. Temperatures in Vegas have been high of 43 and low of 29 of late.

You live long enough you do get to see Hell freeze over.
