Tumble-mageddon: Tumbleweeds overwhelm Utah neighborhoods, roads
High winds caused tumbleweeds to engulf streets, highways and neighborhoods in parts of Utah and Nevada over the weekend. Some called it a 'tumble-mageddon.'
Videos shared online show massive amounts of tumbleweeds swarming parts of Utah, even stacking several feet high around homes. In Pahrump − just outside of Death Valley National Park − tumbleweeds could be seen sweeping roads in every direction. Severe weather brought wind gusts of over 60 mph to the western U.S., knocking down trees, damaging infrastructure and causing power outages.
South Jordan officials set up several dumpster locations
dedicated exclusively to tumbleweeds as they worked on clearing roads. The situation is
being managed with a solid rotation of the designated dumpsters. Farther
south, roads and neighborhoods in Eagle Mountain were also flooded by
the prickly debris.A WOW video here.

I THOUGHT I HAD REPLIES YESTERDAY? GUESS NOT. Where did you grow up, Anonymous? Still looking for hints.
Thank you, It is so kind of you to comment, I really enjoy your feedback. Tumbleweek, are sticky with thorns and so they easily attach on to just about everything. None in Tustin. ;o) Elenor!
