Nutella, Weather Nerds, and Punk Rock: Thursday's Got It All!

National Weather Person's Day kicks things off with a nod to John Jeffries, considered America's first weather observer, born way back in 1744. That's right—meteorologists have been predicting (and occasionally missing) forecasts for centuries. The timing is perfect, landing just three days after Groundhog Day.

Sweet tooths rejoice because it's also National Nutella Day! The beloved hazelnut-cocoa spread has been winning hearts since its Italian debut in 1964. If you haven't tried it yet... what are you waiting for?

But the real fun begins with International Clash Day, honoring the legendary British post-punk rockers who blended reggae, dub, funk, and ska into pure musical gold.

Think you know The Clash? Test yourself with these two questions:

  1. The first American hit from The Clash was a last-second addition to the 1979 album London Calling—so late it didn't even make the track listing, becoming the band's famous "hidden track." It's parenthetically titled "Stand By Me." Which song is it?

A) Rock the Casbah
B) Should I Stay or Should I Go
C) Train in Vain

  1. The iconic London Calling album cover shows bassist Paul Simonon smashing his guitar at a New York City show. The pink and green logotype design was modeled after which rock legend's self-titled debut album?

A) Chuck Berry
B) Elvis Presley
Thursday, February 5th, is serving up a deliciously eclectic mix of celebrations, and the NBC Palm Springs morning crew is here to break it all down.C) Little Richard
