The Chicago Cubs didn’t win the World Series on Monday night, but it still looked like the world was ending.

The Cubs hosted the Los Angeles Dodgers at Wrigley Field with a storm looming in the forecast. The two squads managed to get the game in, but that didn’t stop some storm clouds from producing a downright spooky scene above Chicago.

Wrigley Field looks really weird

For those concerned if Chicago still exists, the crazy skyscape was caused by mammatus clouds, which occasionally appear when severe weather is in the area.

While those clouds only produced some light rain, the game was delayed 10 minutes in the sixth inning when a few lights went out. Playing under protest, the Cubs won 4-2.
