Running from Jim Cantore

Jim Cantore is synonymous with bad weather. So how do people react when he goes on vacation?

[@notbobby125]

Five minutes later, six hurricanes, three wild fires, and a flood only described as "Noah's flood" hit that beach.

[@gordoncrissey8751]

The dog barking at him was priceless.

[@freyalove3831]

The best scene.

[@rcgunner7086]

Easily one of my most favorite commercials. The look of horror on the guy in the grocery store is classic!

[@sailwildcat]

Ok, to all of those who say you wouldn't run have obviously never HAD him in your hometown. Trust me, it is not a good sign! If he is in your town, you should have left about 2 days ago! Brilliant ad!! I LOVE IT!!! I love him to death, but don't ever want to see him step foot in our town again!

[@BeverlyHudson]

Someone here took a picture of him coming down the escalator at the Palm Beach Airport a few years back.

[@tomcruisesmiddlefronttooth9221]

Katrina survivor here and SAME 🤣

[@FedralBI]

The beach scene was funny, but the guy in the grocery store brought tears to my eyes. All these years later, its still funny. Why do I have a feeling that 10,000 years from now, alien archeologists will unearth an image of "Cantore, Harbinger of Destruction."

[@jennifervalentine3596]

FedralBI I hear you! I don’t know what it is about the grocery store guy but he cracks me up every time!

Don't forget Jim Cantore and "Thundersnow!"

[@KaminoMermaid]

😂😂harbinger of destruction!! Lol!!!

[@Esuper1]

yeah this dude cracks me up. he always puts himself like the most at risk places while covering the wreckage of any storm or disaster. I expect to see him holding on to the side rails at the end of pier while the wind has him horizontal like a flag in the wind talking about how fierce the winds are. Maybe getting lifted by a tornado or washed down a flash flood as he signs off "this is jim cantore and now back to you in the studio"

[@SonOfHighValour]

if that happens every time he goes on holiday, I'd book my breaks to match his. An empty beach to relax on sounds good to me.

[@Superdeath25]

They say that like with a nuclear technician, if you see Jim Cantore running for his life, it's already too late

[@reddovedow]

WE REALLY THINK LIKE THIS IN THE SOUTH!! I remember back when Katrina was in the waters and my mom was on the gulf beach and she called me and was excited because she said she saw Jim Cantore. I was excited for her to but then I said "OH......you know what that means.....RUN....." and we laughed but Katrina was no laughing matter. So some of us have really always thought that way. So for this commerical I like it because it is true for some of us who live along the Gulf Coast.

[@travelinggypsy742]

Everyone in the South knows the grim reaper and that sh!t just got real when he darkens your coastline, lol

[@jamiethomas3768]

Yeah Hurricane Katrina was one bad girl wasn’t she?

Jim Cantore doesn't track hurricanes. Hurricanes track Jim Cantore.

Man, this is one of the funniest commercials I've seen in a long time! The good news is I would NOT leave if he shows up.

Having lived in South Florida for close to 40 years, I fear Jim Cantore showing up at Palm Beach International Airport more than palmetto bugs and tourists

[@thomaspaulson9257]

Your time has come. Stay safe, 2-4ft of storm surge expected at Palm Beach.

I dont think west palm has bad a direct hit from a major hurricane in a long time, maybe Jeanne but that was a little north. What was the worst storm you've seen there?

[@BeverlyHudson]

@@tvold9204 2004 and 2005 were bad years for us here in PBC. Frances came from the west but caused quite a bit of damage.

I wouldn’t want him to show up in my town during peak storm season, but I gotta be honest I would love to meet the man.

[@DynamicDuo795]

When you see this man you know something very bad is about to happen.

[@NateTheGreat555]

Oh man. This is just too amazing. If he showed up on my beach, I'd totally go up to chat with him. Then run very fast.

[@SandmanGotBeer]

As a lifelong resident of New Orleans, and today being June 1st, I'll say it.....if we see Jim Cantore in town, we know it's gonna be baaaaaaaad. Jim doesn't show up for some rinky dink tropical storm.

[@roygoodhand1301]

Yeah... gotta be at least Category 3 to get Jim there, unless it's somewhere rare like Bermuda. Bermuda only needs a Category 2. Got a Category 4? You can bet Jim will show up!

[@SandmanGotBeer]

@roygoodhand1301 people start tweeting and Facebooking "Jim's here! Pack your shit and run!" Lol

[@dbzwarrer]

Just saw him in hurricane Ian. Got led to this. Good stuff. Be careful out there!

[@MayPhoenix]

I remember when Jim first started reporting with TWC. I've loved him from Day 1. He has become a legend, much like the late John Hope.

[@cmorris9494]

Jim cantore came to my town once before a snowstorm. The storm dropped 36 inches of snow. It's still the record.

Mr. Cantore, I realize you'll probably never see this comment, but here it is anyways: 🤷🏻‍♀️ I live in Louisiana, and as you know, this year (2020) has NOT been the best for weather. Yes, we do all joke about running you out of the state in order to have the bad weather leave along with you,, but I hope you know we're just kidding. 😋 We really do appreciate all you do so people all over the U.S. can stay as safe as possible during bad weather! 🙂👍🏻 Idk about any other state, but usually in Louisiana, if a person doesn't "mess with"/joke with you at some point in the conversation (especially the true country or Cajun people), that's when you know they really DON'T like you. Tks again for all your hard work, and may the Lord protect you. 🙋🏻‍♀️ ✝️🙏🏻

[@247Dogsrock]
