Now in 993 land ...

That stuff is nasty. If you have your house in one of those high plains, you may have 30 foot high walls of that crap piled up on your fence / hedge / tree line. Better burn it all before it gets dry!

Did you see the shots today of some houses that were enveloped by this stuff, up to the roof lines. That stuff is nasty.

I was waiting for a giant gardener with a leaf blower.

Get off my lawn!

We had 50 MPH gusts in Oklahoma. All we had blowing by were leaves. It looked like a brown blowing blizzard. No tumbleweeds.

The wind got here in SW Ohio about 1.2 an hour ago. No tumbleweeds and no trees down (yet), but it's impressive.
Somebody tell that cameraman that constant panning just makes people dizzy.

On one of my cross country trips I saw a tumbleweed tide blowing across hwy 80 in Nebraska or thereabouts. Some of them were huge and when a semi hit 'em they'd explode. Truly awesome. Same trip there was a locust or cricket cloud. They'd leave slipstream wakes behind the cars and trucks...this would have been back in the late 70's or early 80's when I couldn't decide which coast to live on...
