Weatherman Bob Van Dillen likely knew it was going to be an eventful night covering Hurricane Helene for Fox as the Category 4 storm made landfall, but he couldn’t have imagined just how eventful it would get.
Van Dillen was doing a live national standup in Atlanta early this morning with a flooded roadway as a backdrop.
“You can see right here we’ve got this lady that drove into the area that’s flooded out and she’s screaming right now,” he told the Fox & Friends studio hosts. After describing the scene for a few more seconds with the sound of the woman’s voice in the background, Van Dillen told the audience, “I just called 911. The fire department is coming.”
He then turned to try and comfort the woman assuring her help is on the way before cutting his live shot short, telling the studio, “It’s a situation. We’ll get back to you in a bit. I’m going to see if I can help this lady out.”
Cut to video of Van Dillen carrying the woman on his back through chest deep floodwaters before literally giving her the shirt off his back so she could get warm.
Van Dillen wasn’t the only hero who braved the storm.
A U.S. Coastguard rescue helicopter flew out into the hurricane to save a man and his dog on a disabled sailboat.
Elsewhere, on Atlanta resident was caught on video using a sleeping air mattress as a life raft as rescue workers patrolled the chest-high floodwaters saving people.
Her Son Identifies As A Cat And Mom Is Upset The Vet Won’t Treat Him
Amidst the cacophony of the internet’s viral sensations, one peculiar video has captured the attention of global audiences. In this digital age where information spreads like wildfire, a seemingly ordinary American woman has become an unexpected protagonist in a narrative that challenges conventional notions of identity and societal norms.
The video, disseminated by a British commentator who ominously forewarned of societal collapse, features the American woman candidly sharing her perplexing ordeal. She reveals that her son, with an earnest conviction, identifies as a cat. What ensues is a discourse that traverses the boundaries of rationality, sparking debates on the fringes of acceptance and skepticism.
At the heart of the controversy lies the woman’s lamentation: despite her son’s steadfast identification as a feline, a veterinarian purportedly denied treatment, citing the undeniable reality of his human anatomy. It is this clash between subjective identity and objective reality that forms the crux of the woman’s grievance, casting a spotlight on the intricacies of discrimination and inclusion.
For the woman, her son’s assertion of being a cat transcends mere whimsy; it is a fundamental aspect of his being that warrants recognition and accommodation. In her impassioned plea for understanding, she asserts that her son’s self-professed identity should afford him the same rights and privileges as any other member of society. To her, the denial of veterinary care based on his human physiology is tantamount to discrimination—a stark reminder of the pervasive biases that persist in our ostensibly progressive world.
