Australia has already dealt with extreme fires, flooding and hail this year. Now experts are warning people to watch out for deadly funnel-web spiders due to “perfect conditions” for the arachnid to thrive.

Fennel spiders are known for their highly toxic and fast-acting venom . Because of the recent rain in Australia and the hot weather,fennel spiders take this opportunity to start moving around.On Wednesday,the Australian Reptile Park in New South Wales said spider activity has increased in the past few days. Experts say that funnel spiders are one of the most dangerous spiders on the planet.For example,one bite towards humans it has to be treated very seriously.

Australia has been destroyed by the worst wildfires seen in decades, with large swaths of the country devastated since the fire season began in late July. At least 28 people have died all over the world and in the state of New South Wales more than 3,000 homes have been destroyed or ruined .Severe thunderstorms delivered relief to some areas late last week, although floods still created some risks. Parts of southeastern Australia were also showered by hailstones as big as golf balls big enough to smash car windows and injure animals, less than 24 hours after the region was hit by massive dust storms.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
