"Burning Man Site Threatened by Tropical Storm Hilary's Flooding, Faces Closure"

The gates to the Black Rock Desert, where the Burning Man festival is held, have been closed due to flooding caused by Tropical Storm Hilary. The nonprofit organization running the event has requested that staff and attendees delay their travel until at least Wednesday. The festival, which attracts about 70,000 attendees, is set to begin on Sunday. While some may face travel delays, the ultra-rich with private jets should still be able to attend.
