The 10 most spectacular photos of tonight’s sunset

That’s one good thing we got in 2016, at least. After a gloomy day of cold water raining down on us in NYC, we were rewarded with a seriously stunning sunset. It’s technically just a side effect of the “weather bomb” hitting the East Coast this week, but maybe, just maybe, it’s Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher saying goodbye.
