Lightning struck a tree and seemingly opened up the gates of Hell
If this isn't some sort of sign, we don't know what is.
According to The Weather Network, Mississippi and Alabama experienced severe storms this past weekend, including at least three reported tornados. In the aftermath of the storms, Janis Melton took this photo of a tree burning from the inside out after being struck by lightning in Baldwyn, Mississippi. Alabama meteorologist extraordinaire James Spann tweeted the photo, and oh dear God nature has opened up the fiery gates of Hell.

That's not Photoshop. That's nature. And she's DAMN scary.

Everyone saw this blazing tree for what it truly is- a portal to something sinister and mysterious.
Could it be... the Upside Down? Possibly.
@spann @evan_welch @jkroxie that looks like the way into the Upside Down.

Mordor? Likely.
@spann @jkroxie What you have here is a portal into Mordor.

Anyway you slice it, WTF.
Don't stand too close - you might get sucked in. Say "hi" to Satan on your way in.
Or Barb. Whomever you see first.
