Check out the following YouTube videos for a sampling of some of our favorite encounters between Mother Nature and the media:
• In the two clips below, Fox News' Geraldo Rivera and the Weather Channel's Jim Morrow learn firsthand how powerful Hurricane Ike was in 2008.
• In these next two clips, Hurricane Dolly unleashes her fury on the Weather Channel's Julie Martin, while meteorologist Chad Myers unleashes his fury on CNN anchor Carol Costello.
• And in this final clip, Hurricane Isabel forces the Weather Channel's Mike Seidel to rethink his statement that "we're kind of protected here," quickly ending a huddle with NBC's Brian Williams. It was much shorter than another of Seidel's on-air safety hugs, an intimate, 61-second embrace with meteorologist Al Roker (embedding disabled by YouTube; click here to watch).
