Hurricane Florence poised as a major threat before hitting the United States but nothing could have prepared people for when a weather reporter tried to ‘battle’ the winds when there were no winds to battle at all. In the video shared on Twitter, two men can be seen walking at a comfortable and relaxed pace behind Mike Seidel from the Weather Channel who appears to be struggling to maintain his balance.
He tells the camera:
“We’re in one of these bands. This is about as nasty as it’s been.”
So dramatic! Dude from the weather channel bracing for his life, as 2 dudes just stroll past. #HurricaneFlorence pic.twitter.com/8FRyM4NLbL

People noticed something off in the whole reportage and called him out. The channel then came out with an explanation:
“It’s important to note that the two individuals in the background are walking on concrete, and Mike Seidel is trying to maintain his footing on wet grass, after reporting on-air until 1:00 a.m. ET this morning and is undoubtedly exhausted.”
But Tweeps, as always, were savage AF:
