Storms and Runoff Near Anthem

  • The Las Vegas Valley is a basin with a single outlet, the Las Vegas Wash, so rain runoff drains to the east side of the valley and on to Lake Mead.Source en.wikipedia.org
  • Rain over the mountains around the valley can flood the valley floor as it runs off, and more hardscape as the valley grew has added to that runoff.Source en.wikipedia.org

Storm water that ran over the ground is Category 3 water. It needs cleaning and often removal of soaked materials, not just fans. See flood cleanup and the live storm tracker.
