The grass was wet and he was tired.

Makes sense.

Yeah, a public service announcement about why you shouldn't walk on grass during a hurricane. I get it!

The proponents of the unproven left wing Climate Change Conspiracy Theory cannot even make a good fake video to back up their fake claims.

The Weather Channel noted in a statement to The Hill that the reporter was standing on wet grass and was “undoubtedly exhausted.”

“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,” the network said.

It's a stupid and dishonest response, of course, but probably the best option they had. The attorneys vetoed the first draft, which read: "Okay, you got us. We're lying sacks of fraud and you can't believe anything we do or say."

Following that was a short-lived but intense discussion over whether the public might accept the argument that the two strolling dudes were actually in the hurricane's eye.

A more believable explanation would have been, “Mike was drunk. Again. Enjoy your evening.”

Ain’t buyin’ it.

The Weather Channel loses another notch of credibility once again. I notice it was ‘the network’ that was quoted, no person’s name behind it.

They sensationalize all the time. Ratings are king.

When the radical left gets caught in a very funny lie.
What do they do ?
They send a LIE to the DNC PR newsletter called The Hill .
The Hill aka the Pill spreads the lie . The Lies are spread daily by this Dem Lie machine.

“Weather Channel defends reporter seen in viral Hurricane Florence video”

You lean into the wind to brace; you don’t lean with the wind at your back.

This is fake news.

How do they explain why the reporter was in full hooded rain slicker while the two guys were wearing shorts and sneakers?

The “whether or not we can fool folks into believing climate change” channel is so out of the closet.
Sorry, but I get my science data from folks who actually know science.
And weather.

I have never understood the need to send reporters to the scene of these big weather events. You have sophisticated radar and satellites to track these things. They just put these people out for some kind of dramatic effect and usually it's pretty ridiculous and stupid.

Now we know some of this is an act and a show for the audience which is why I never watch any of this stuff if I can avoid it.

The two kids were probably in a wind shadow from some building or trees. Seidel looks like he weighs two pounds soaking wet.
