A powerful windstorm swept through Las Vegas, toppling dozens of power poles across the city's east side. Gusts of up to 70 mph battered the valley during the sudden monsoon storm on Tuesday (July 1), ripping up trees and plunging thousands of homes into darkness. Footage from the scene shows rows of power poles lying across the road on Tropicana Avenue. According to local media, around 30 poles were snapped or knocked down along a one-mile stretch of Tropicana Avenue, between Sandhill Road and Eastern Avenue. In total, more than 50 poles were damaged across the city, leading to widespread outages that left over 33,000 NV Energy customers without electricity at the peak of the storm.
