South Florida NBC meteorologist John Morales explained his emotional reaction Monday to Hurricane Milton’s strength and projected path, telling CNN that it was out-of-character for him, but it was brought on by the increased severity of storms due to climate change.
Morales told OutFront anchor Erin Burnett on Tuesday that, going back to his start in 1992, he had “always been known as the non-alarmist, just the facts meteorologist.”
“So this is definitely a departure from the guy I’ve always been. But I have changed,” he explained. “The extreme weather events that are multiplying, the number of multi-billion dollar disasters that are impacting this country and countries all over the world—it has changed me. These symptoms of a changing climate have changed me from a cool cucumber to somebody that’s certainly more agitated and in a bit of dismay about what’s been going on.”
