Did your office just turn dark? Did your Instagram just fill up with apocalyptic-looking sky photos? Did you feel a dark shadow creep over your shoulders as if the Grim Reaper himself were going in for the hug? WHAT IS HAPPENING OUT THERE?
#NoFilter (Jen Carlson/Gothamist)
There's currently a tornado watch for New York City until 5 p.m., and the giant green band on this satellite weather map is on top of us which—if our eyes are to be believed—means a lot of rain. And a lot of gray skies. To be honest guys, NOAA is running on fumes due to the government shutdown so who the fuck knows what's really going on. Have a drink.
When reached for comment about the current weather situation, our go-to weather guy Joe Schumacher told us, "Tornadoes are far from my mind. I'm sitting on a park bench in Asheville, paralyzed with indecision over what brewpub to have lunch at." Thanks Joe, pour one out for us?
So listen to this sweet, relevant Phish jam from last year's Oklahoma City show, and send us your sky photos (good job guys, we've got enough photos now!).
