    It's a plant. It grows and dies... not sure what kind of an answer you're looking for.

    From Wikipedia: Tumbleweeds have a significant effect on wind soil erosion in open regions, particularly on dry-land agricultural operations where the outside application of additional moisture is impossible. One study showed that a single Russian Thistle can remove up to 44 gallons of water from the soil while competing with a wheat crop.[19] The amount of water removed from fallow land more subject to erosion would be even higher. In addition to the moisture consumed by the plant, significant damage to the protective soil crust is caused by the tumbleweeds' motion. The damage to the soil surface then provides exposure for subsequent wind damage and topsoil loss.

    Thankfully we can burn tumbleweeds; sadly we can't burn 50% of society.

    Is the worst of it over? I was in Dallas earlier and didn't get hail there. Is there any more coming tonight? I'd have to make room in the garage!
