Drizzlepocalypse Now: Strange Liquid Substance Called 'Rain' Falls From Sky, Inconveniences Motorists

100818-dc-storm-hmed-630a.grid-6x2.jpg
First snow, then earthquakes, then wind and now... this waking terror.

This shocking photo of Hunters Mill Road shows an unknown liquid substance that alternately confused and terrified motorists for much of the day, overwhelming two bridges on the backroads around Reston. Scientists are currently field-testing the liquid -- known colloquially as "rain" -- to determine its chemical makeup. Resist the urge to panic when stronger downpours of this mystery liquid return tonight and turn us all into soggy, zombie-like remnants of our once-happy selves.

  1. Yesterday, August 17th, at about 6 p.m. a huge plume of smoke was visible from Reston looking east (coming from either eastern Reston or Vienna), and a lot of sirens were heard. Anybody knows what was it?

  2. I think it was the Smoke Monster from "Lost". It finally got off the island.
