God is apparently pissed off with Vegas (not surprising, really) and he's unleashed one of his plagues on the city. Grasshoppers. Millions of them.
So many that it's showing up like storms on the weather radar:

A local Vegas entomologist says that these grasshoppers live in the desert south of Vegas into Arizona and multiply after rains. Last winter had abundant rain. Sometimes they migrate north into central Nevada. (Who can blame them for wanting to stop off for a little fun in Vegas?) He says that they are harmless, don't carry disease and won't damage anything.
