Town buried under tumbleweeds

Roadrunners soon to follow?

You may think of tumbleweeds as being a punchline to a Warner Bros cartoon, but the town of Clovis, New Mexico isn’t laughing. A recent windstorm buried part of the town in up to eight feet of tumbleweeds, drifts piling up against houses and cars, even trapping some residents indoors. Clean-up of these rogue weeds is expected to take weeks to complete.
