Meteorologist Has Mortifying On-Camera Moment While Flying Through Eye Of Hurricane Melissa
HuffPost
“I think my television career has peaked,” Matthew Cappucci joked after the experience.
A meteorologist tried to throw down with a hurricane and ended up throwing up.
Matthew Cappucci, a meteorologist for The Washington Post’s Capital Weather Gang, was caught on camera vomiting while flying through the eye of Hurricane Melissa.
Cappucci was interviewed by CNN’s Erin Burnett on Monday and shared the gross footage — but Burnett pointed out that he had a good reason for allowing CNN to air it.
“I know that you got sick on the flight,” Burnet said. “I mean, it was that horrifically turbulent, even though you’ve done this before. You did record that so everyone could understand just the severity of this.”
Cappucci described the experience as being “very reminiscent of a roller coaster at night.”
