What you are seeing is a painting of the current state of the once great city, Seattle. Done by an illiterate mute, who also has a terrible fear of cameras.
He captured the brutal and seemingly endless storm which has been drowning the entire state of Washington for nearly a month now. The flooding seems to have reached an...unbelievable level. Well, artists have been known to exaggerate a little, but then again, it has been pouring for a month!
It also seems that one man has built... okay, now this is ridiculous. A man has built an ark in an attempt to save the animals and residents of the area, and surprise, surprise the fabled creature Cthulhu has come up from the depths of the waters to pull down the ark.
I'm sorry, folks. I have absolutely no idea what things really look like in Washington right now.
