Snow covers the sides and sphinx of the Luxor Hotel on the Las Vegas Strip on Dec. 17, 2008. If Sin City's sports books took bets on the weather, snow in Las Vegas on New Year's Eve would normally have terrible odds. It might pay out for 2014, though, if the white flurries start falling on an Eiffel Tower, a pyramid and a volcano come Wednesday night, Dec. 31, as forecast by the National Weather Service.
