VIDEO – Weather Reporter Braces for Hurricane Florence While 2 Guys Walk by As If Nothing’s Wrong

With Hurricane Florence hitting the Eastern Seaboard in the US, reporters have taken to the outdoors in storm-drenched areas to show viewers at home just how serious the storm is.

In this context, a video has gone viral on social media platforms showing Weather Channel reporter Mike Seidel bracing his feet on where he’s standing, presumably so he won’t be blown over by the winds, when two guys walked effortlessly behind him as though nothing was wrong and ruined the appearance of dire conditions.

This has led Twitter users to question if the wind is really this strong.

So dramatic! Dude from the weather channel bracing for his life, as 2 dudes just stroll past. #HurricaneFlorence pic.twitter.com/8FRyM4NLbL

Weather Channel Meme:

💨Exaggeration - To magnify beyond the limits of truth

2 Errors:

💨Lean Into The Wind - To stand in a high wind, you need to lean into the wind, that is, opposite the direction that the wind is blowing

💨Dont let 2 people stroll effortlessly past you 🤣 pic.twitter.com/2lANUJx9TV

I like the Weather Channel. But look at this guy acting like the wind is about to blow him over as he rocks back and forth. Meanwhile, I guess he missed the guys walking behind him casually talking on their phones. OOPS!!
