What happens when hell goes live on television-and the ratings keep climbing?At 4:00 AM, K31-TV is barely surviving. Its morning broadcast has terrible ratings, outdated equipment, and a crew one disaster away from quitting. Then the signal changes. A strange transmission begins crawling across the teleprompter. The studio temperature plummets. Shadows move where nothing should be. Equipment melts, guests disappear, and something ancient begins pushing through the television signal.
Master Control engineer Steven Ramirez wants to shut everything down. Anchor Patricia Martinez has a different idea. The worse things get, the higher the ratings climb. Soon, K31 is broadcasting something no network has ever seen-and millions of viewers can't look away. As cosmic horror, eldritch entities, body horror, and supernatural chaos consume the studio, Patricia refuses to stop the show. Because this isn't a disaster anymore.
It's the biggest broadcast of her career. What Is the Weather in Hell? is a darkly comic cosmic horror novel blending weird fiction, satirical horror, corporate satire, analog horror, and grotesque comedy into a nightmare about television, capitalism, and the terrifying power of attention. The apocalypse has gone live. And Patricia is determined to stay on camera.
