It is unlikely that a hurricane would hit Las Vegas, because it is in the middle of the desert but if it did hit Las Vegas it would probably cause a great amount of devastation.

First of all the hurricane would have to travel across land to get to Las Vegas, which means it would already cause distraction to near by towns or cities like Los Angele's or San Fransisco.

IT would then travel through the metropolitan area of Las Vegas that would cause devastation to homes and residences and leave many people homeless all though quit a few people would of fled to get away from the city.

It would then hit the strip and rip apart many of the million dollar casinos and hotels like Caesar's palace and the Luxor.

The hurricane would through all of the debris and rubble of the buildings into the air, causing more trouble for people if the casinos and hotels had strong skeleton frames it would only cause a minimum of damage.

The strengh of the hurricane would depend on how strong the winds would be.

A very strong hurricane could get up to the wind speeds of 180 mph with cause a lot of damage to the city.

so if a hurricane did hit Las Vegas it would be a good thing to get out of th city or take shelter pretty fast.
