Like a storm just on Friend Wifethe horizon, Election Day looms.

For most, it can't get here soon enough. Many Americans will be glued to their televisions or smartphones in search of up-to-the-second results.

The Weather Channel, however, invites you to just try to relax.

The channel announced on Tuesday that it will be hosting a special "Escape the Election with the Weather Channel" evening featuring relaxing nature footage set to smooth jazz.

"Weather will have it all in a 9-hour chill marathon guaranteed to evoke tranquility and set your soul at ease," the company wrote in a blog post.

The chillness starts at 3 p.m. ET and "will include the most beautiful, awe-inspiring, and calming weather video and scenery ever caught on tape."

The Weather Channel added that people should still go vote, but "if you want a break from the pundits, pontifications, predictions and politics ... turn to Weather."

"It's going to be huge," the company added.

We here at Mashable appreciate some good counter-programming, and even do some ourselves — like our debate-night kitten show.
