Out in the elements

Last night at work:

Why I was outside in the middle of that:

One of our reporters wanted me to get a picture of her doing her live shot outside the building in the middle of the snowstorm, so she could show her family. (They apparently know nothing of this “snow” that they only hear about but never see in Miami.) I also got to hold that light stand as steady as I could – the wind is blasting so hard outside that it was like trying to keep a handle on a kite during a tornado.
The drive home was pretty treacherous. I might get my day off after all. (Besides which, I clocked out with over 37 hours – if I can’t make it in tomorrow, I almost have a full week of work in. In four days.)
