#22At BRC now. It sucks. Everything is flooded. The man is not going to burn. There are 2 more days of rain forecasted. My guess is Wednesday when driving will be possible.

Re: No way in or out of Burning Man after storm
#23The article paints a pretty dire picture. Having never been to that part of the world, is the nearest place that could support Reno? I assume this would need a post-hurricane type support airdrop of supplies?
It's really only a couple of hours by car or truck, on well paved streets. Gerlach is the small town on the edge of the park, they have at least places to stage rescue/supply events.

#24Having been there on and off for twenty years, rain storms during BRC are not a new thing. Maybe this is something extraordinary (I'm not there right now) but I really doubt it.
Is it normal to not be able to leave burning man (airport shut down, no cars, no bikes?) I’ve never been. But the feeling of being stranded with no possible way of leaving would have me going crazy in about 3 hours.
Rain like this is rare buts it’s shut down exit like this before, this isn’t unprecedented. Even during a normal year they shut down entry/exit when sandstorms reduce visibility - often for a couple of hours every few days.

Thanks for the actual updates and photos.
I’m curious: What’s your internet access setup there?

You get told from the start that these things happen so I wouldn't be feeling too bad for those who failed to heed advice.

Camp had shared internet from the org. That stopped working so joined the plug and play camps WiFi which is starlink.

Starlink primarily. There is no cell service out there.
