Scott and SadieCold weather in the Midwest and Northeast is making for some dangerous driving conditions. And if you didn’t know which states were about to get POUNDED, you obviously didn’t see this picture . . .
AccuWeather shared a radar graphic on Thursday of the states with ice in the forecast. And people immediately started joking about HOW graphic and phallic it was. (Here’s the post.)
It shows a long SHAFT of icy weather extending 1,500 miles from Kansas to Virginia. The fact that the whole thing is pink doesn’t help. (Neither do all the highways running through it.)
People in the comments didn’t disappoint. Here are a few of them we CAN read on the air.
1. “If this storm lasts longer than four hours, be sure to contact your doctor.”
2. “If that’s the size when it’s cold, I’d hate to see what warm weather brings.”
3. “Virginia is going to have to change its name after this.” (Not a virgin anymore.)
4. Several people joked The Weather Channel should have named it “Winter Storm Johnson.” (Their actual name for it is Winter Storm Blair.)
5. “Looks like a large portion of the country is really getting the shaft.”
6. No comment, someone just photoshopped in the Hawk Tuah girl.
7. “It’s gonna be a long, hard winter.”
8. “Looks like we’re screwed.”
What do you think—was this graphic an innocent mistake or a sneaky bit of humor from AccuWeather? Share your thoughts in the comments! We’re dying to know if you think this was intentional or just the most unfortunate weather map ever.
