Where’s Jim Cantore? It’s a popular question anytime bad weather is in the forecast, and when he shows up in your town it is typically not a good sign! Well, Punta Gorda, here on Florida's west coast, got a visit from Canotre as he and everyone else there were dealing with 155 MPH winds!!!

Cantore was doing a report and video shared by Joel Franco showed several storm chasers and weather reporters at the scene, and at one point, a quick-moving tree branch flew through and tripped up Cantore.

"You know what, I think I’m just going to come in here for a second," Cantore said on the Weather Channel stream as he struggled to grab a street sign. "Just give me a second. I’m fine."
