Meteorologists at WCTI-TV’s headquarters in New Bern, North Carolina, were forced to evacuate during Hurricane Florence live on the air.

A Twitter user captured the incident and uploaded it. “Eerie video as WCTI’s meteorologists finally evacuate due to rising waters mid-broadcast, leaving just the radar of Florence’s rain bands looping on repeat,” he wrote.
