Rainstorm at Burning Man festival leaves attendees stranded in muddy desert

Organizers have advised attendees to stay in their camps, conserve food and water, and not to drive on the playa. The weather disruptions have caused the cancellation of art burns and raised doubts about the festival's centerpiece events. This year's Burning Man was already facing challenges with flooding caused by Hurricane Hilary. The conditions have drawn comparisons to the ill-fated Fyre Festival and Woodstock '94.
