More rain is expected Sunday in the Nevada high desert where tens of thousands of attendees to the Burning Man festival have been left essentially stranded after heavy rains flooded their annual gathering for art, music and dance.
On Friday night, the Black Rock Desert about 110 miles north of Reno, home to the makeshift Black Rock City for one week, was hit with more than half an inch of rain overnight. Organizers soon issued a flood watch and a flood advisory was still in effect on Sunday morning for portions of north-central and northwest Nevada. Heavy flooding was even reported on the Las Vegas Strip on Saturday.
