Burning Man Traffic warned guests about the impending bad weather on Friday afternoon. By 11 p.m., the account advised guests to shelter in place and conserve resources.

"For anyone in BRC, help each other stay safe. The gate and airport in and out of Black Rock City remain closed," the X post read. "Ingress and egress are halted for the time being. Stay prepared for adverse weather conditions continuing through the night and into Saturday."

So did they actually cook off the burning man?

Or just save him for next year?

Burning man is an anti human rally that's gone corporate. Pay $1000 per rv to attend? knock yourselves out boomers and chimp gen zees.
Oh btw when it rains the ground becomes alkaline

Rained and got muddy, huh?

I remember back in August 1969, there was a festival in upstate New York where it rained a lot too...... Made a movie about it, IIRC.

Wonder if that's why they set Burning Man in the desert.

The Vegas/Nevada area gets flash floods and heavy rain usually at this time of year.
