Weatherman Bob Van Dillen likely knew it was going to be an eventful night covering Hurricane Helene for Fox as the Category 4 storm made landfall, but he couldn’t have imagined just how eventful it would get.
Van Dillen was doing a live national standup in Atlanta early this morning with a flooded roadway as a backdrop.
“You can see right here we’ve got this lady that drove into the area that’s flooded out and she’s screaming right now,” he told the Fox & Friends studio hosts. After describing the scene for a few more seconds with the sound of the woman’s voice in the background, Van Dillen told the audience, “I just called 911. The fire department is coming.”
He then turned to try and comfort the woman assuring her help is on the way before cutting his live shot short, telling the studio, “It’s a situation. We’ll get back to you in a bit. I’m going to see if I can help this lady out.”
Cut to video of Van Dillen carrying the woman on his back through chest deep floodwaters before literally giving her the shirt off his back so she could get warm.
Van Dillen wasn’t the only hero who braved the storm.
A U.S. Coastguard rescue helicopter flew out into the hurricane to save a man and his dog on a disabled sailboat.
Elsewhere, on Atlanta resident was caught on video using a sleeping air mattress as a life raft as rescue workers patrolled the chest-high floodwaters saving people.
Martha Stewart’s perfect response for haters who say she should dress her age
The legendary businesswoman Martha Stewart, known for her exquisite home décor and culinary prowess, is making news once more.
But it’s not for her newest dish or do-it-yourself project this time.
Stewart, who is eighty-two, is embracing her individuality and rejecting ageist preconceptions, especially when it comes to her style choices.
Stewart was asked recently about how she approaches dressing for her age while she was in New York City for the Fashion Group International Night of Stars event. Stewart dismissively answered the question of “dressing for one’s age” when it was posed, asking, “Dressing for whose age?” as reported by the Huffington Post.
For all women, Stewart’s defiance of age-related fashion standards is an inspiration. She asserts loudly that she doesn’t take age into account when making dress decisions, saying, “I don’t think about age.” I believe that as people get older, they get more and more amazing, and I salute each and every one of them, according to Page 6.
She declares with pride, “I’ve dressed the same since I was 17,” demonstrating her confidence.
Stewart has been causing a stir on social media with her daring dress choices in addition to her red carpet appearances. From taking pictures by the pool to becoming the oldest model to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in history, Stewart celebrates her sexuality and individuality with unwavering courage.
In an open interview, Stewart highlighted how happy she was to be acknowledged as a sex icon at her age and how it could serve as an inspiration to others. She said, “I’m a teacher,” according to the Huffington Post. “I want to show people that having a great appearance is possible.” There’s no justification for moping around.
Stewart kept her usual sense of humor and spontaneity when questioned about her future intentions to share “thirst traps” on social media. Stewart’s lighthearted approach to life is charming and inspirational, whether he’s laughing about taking a picture with a polar bear in Greenland or just letting things happen.
