Weather channel: We will have 'absolutely zero election coverage on election day'

The Weather Channel announced in a press release on Tuesday that it will help viewers "escape the election" with a "9-hour chill marathon" of zero political coverage on November 8.

"This election year, American citizens have endured wall to wall breathless tension from our colleagues in the news media, and our forecast calls for a 100% chance that will continue through election day," the release said. "Wouldn't it be nice if we all had a place to escape?"

The release continue: "If you think The Weather Channel is going to tell you to sit back, relax and stick your head in the clouds...you are correct...Starting at 3 p.m ET on November 8, the marathon will include the most beautiful, awe-inspiring, and calming weather video and scenery ever caught on tape. This world is a beautiful and magical place after all."

The weather puns only continued as the channel parodied a quip Hillary Clinton quip the candidate has inserted into virtually every campaign speech for weeks.

"This election night, as other networks go low, The Weather Channel goes high...to the sky that is. Clouds! Rainbows! Autumn Splendor! And...yes...smooth jazz! Weather will have it all in a 9-hour chill marathon guaranteed to evoke tranquility and set your soul at ease."

Donald Trump wasn't safe, either.

"So go vote America and check out election results, but if you want a break from the pundits, pontifications, predictions and politics... turn to Weather," the release said.

"It's going to be huge."
