The app, which uses hyper-local radar data to generate weather predictions, is predicting that this Saturday we're going to descend into hellish subzero temperatures.

Much like the 2004 less-than-accurate and not-really-good disaster movie, The Day After Tomorrow, Dark Sky predicts that the temperature on March 24th will plunge sharply to near a hundred degrees below zero. Sounds bad!

And not just in northeast, which has already been battered by storms. Looks like the southwest is going to get their share of below Arctic temperatures as well.

Some places will also apparently experience a bit of weather whiplash as the temperatures soar to intense levels of heat next Tuesday. The future is looking more terrifying all the time.

Some have noticed the correlation between the date of Saturday's supposed deep freeze and the upcoming March For Our Lives.

Now, obviously, this is all just a glitch in Dark Sky's system. The company explained the error to Mashable:

"The root cause of the strange temperature forecasts was a single faulty forecast generation server that was generating wacky results. Normally this would be caught by our monitoring and not making it into our published data, but the issue somehow made it through our checks. Fortunately we were able to fix it, and improve the checks to make sure it doesn't happen again."

Great news that hell is probably not actually going to freeze over. But on the off-chance that the end of the world is nigh, you might want to grab with an extra coat or seven on Saturday.
