Orangina Alert

I turned on NY1 to check the weather and turned it off as soon as I saw the temperature, choosing not to wait while the anchor finished explaining the massive terror alert for Manhattan, especially the important parts of the island, or something. I figured all I need to know is whether it will be chilly or warm when terrorists strike. Knowing that it's 79 degrees out is helpful; knowing that leaving my apartment (or, for that matter, remaining in it, given its proximity to midtown) might be fatal isn't helpful in the least.
