3/18/2004: Locust swarm



Our Aussie friends might have something to say about this. It's the outback, New South Wales where thousands upon thousands of locusts are swarming for the last few days. Apparently it was caused by strange weather patterns because it followed a period of heavy rains. They're spraying to try to prevent breeding, but area farmers have lost most of their crops. full story

It turns out adult locusts can migrate 300 miles overnight. Coming soon to a town near you?
