parrothead asked:
anyone flying out of Vegas knows the scene. You can look right down onto the Vegas Strip. Could you imaging how it looked to incoming Monte Carlo vistors to see the hotel they are going to be staying in on fire?..wow
The most obvious buildings to see is the Luxor, Bellagio, and Caesers Palace.. but I bet today the most visible was the Monte Carlo.
Yes. The smoke from the Monte Carlo was visible throughout all of the Las Vegas Valley. The cloud cover associated with the latest winter storm didn’t start rolling in until after the fire was extinguished. I could even see the smoke to the west from the patio of my home. It’s about fifteen minutes travel time east of the Strip. My late breakfast outdoors was sadly interrupted.
