The Rayburn House Office Building flooded on Tuesday after a burst pipe sent water cascading into the basement of the building, and even made it look like it was raining in the elevator banks.
Initially, heavy rain and thunderstorms over Washington, D.C., made it seem like Rayburn was simply missing a roof. However, it was reported that the flooding was caused by a major pipe malfunction. Several elevators are reportedly out-of-service and power is gone in part of the building.
