A video appears to capture a weatherman faking a struggle to remain standing in winds during Hurricane Florence.
In the video, which was widely circulated on social media, a Weather Channel reporter is seen in North Carolina as he apparently struggles to remain on his feet. At the same time, behind him, two pedestrians can be seen strolling calmly by.
However, the Weather Channel said in response: “It’s important to note that the two individuals in the background are walking on concrete, and [the weatherman] is trying to maintain his footing on wet grass, after reporting on-air until 1am this morning and is undoubtedly exhausted.”
