| How Many Inches Of Rain Did Las Vegas Get |
The Big Reveal (Spoiler Alert: It Wasn't Much)
According to reliable sources (aka our weather guy who doesn't seem to get much overtime), Las Vegas received a whopping... drumroll please...0.00 inches of rain as of July 15th, 2024. That's right, folks, drier than a stack of casino chips.
However, there is a glimmer of hope (or a sprinkle, I guess) for those pining for some precipitation. Our weather friend also tells us that over the past week, Las Vegas has seen a total of 0.46 inches of rain. That's basically the equivalent of a spilled margarita by the pool, but hey, progress is progress!
QuickTip: Skip distractions — focus on the words.
Here's Why You Shouldn't Pack Your Umbrella (Just Yet)
While 0.46 inches might sound impressive in Vegas terms, it's not quite enough to warrant an umbrella. Las Vegas averages around 4 inches of rain per year, so we've still got a long way to go before we need to worry about building an ark.
So, for now, those pool noodles you brought for the "epic downpour" can probably be repurposed as poolside jousting sticks.
QuickTip: Revisit key lines for better recall.
