The local football coaches had our annual briefing scheduled at 8PM at the Andover (NJ) Twp. fire hall. I looked outside, said no way. Good thing, because at that time a little east of that location a tornado was spotted!

I'm going to wait until the wee hours (when this is forecast to clear out) just to take out the garbage!

"Popcorn" is a Belgian category for creepy, midtempo records of most American and Jamaican genres. It's really a lovely deep dive if you like the vibe.
