The art: Edvard Munch, The Storm, 1893.

The news: New York NPR affiliate WNYC has created a “Dark and Stormy Mixtape” to help you ride out Hurricane Irene. Seems perfect for the Munch, no?

The source: Collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. 

Note: Before there was The Weather Channel, there was art. Throughout the day 3rd of May will post examples of artists thrilling to big, bad, threatening storms.
