Spider Webs Blanket Australia After Floods 
Massive spider-webs stretching across trees and paddocks have formed near towns in Australia recently hit by floods. YIKES! Residents say the gossamer-like veils appeared after days of heavy rain.

Full disclosure- this app doesnt seem to have grey hair & always seems to make my brown eyes blue... now where have I heard THAT line b4?  :)
