>>> a bizarre scene in australia, where severe weather along the coastline has left some towns under four feet of sea foam . it was caused by huge offshore waves and high winds injecting air into the water. for the local kids, or for that matter, any vehicles trying to get through, it's like living with shaving cream. there is a serious side to this storm. four deaths so far. at least one dramatic rescue of a baby trapped by floodwaters, and fears that homes are going to be swept away.
