This footage, filmed by Cory Allen LeGars, shows a group of tumbleweeds bouncing across Interstate 5 in Coalinga, central California. LeGars told Storyful he filmed this footage while driving from Los Angeles to San Francisco. "Traffic slowed to a crawl due to an overabundance of tumbleweeds littering the highway," he said. "I did my best to dodge them!" he added. A high wind warning and wind advisory were https://twitter.com/NWSHanford/status/1752655542601081146 in place on Wednesday for parts of the region.
