Weatherman Stops Broadcasting To Save Woman Stuck In Deadly Hurricane Helene Flood

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.

Bride receives strange call in church – leaves immediately without a word

A lot of little girls dream about what their wedding day will be like. They always imagine what they will wear, what the band will play, and, of course, who their groom will be.

On Sarah Ray’s big day, she did something no one expected. Keep reading to know more.

Sarah Ray was all set for her big day in Tennessee. She was dressed in her beautiful white wedding gown and was ready to say her vows and make her fiance her husband.

But as the wedding was underway, the bride received a call. She attended the call and, without saying a word, rushed out of her wedding. No one understood what had happened.

She left the church filled with people waiting to attend her wedding. Her groom, who was waiting for her to walk down the aisle, decided to forgive her for her hasty exit. Perhaps because he knew that she must have had a good reason for doing so.

A picture that was shared by hundreds of people showed the bride running on the road in her wedding gown. The reason for her abruptly leaving is very understandable.

When she was about to walk down the aisle, she received an unfortunate phone call that informed her that her father and grandmother had been involved in a car accident. She knew she could not abandon her family and decided to make a run for it.

She grabbed a pair of flat shoes, put them on, and made her way to her family. Since Sarah was a nurse by profession, her instinct to save lives kicked in immediately, and she knew she had to rush to be by her family’s side in case they needed medical attention.

When she got to the scene of the accident, she realized that everything was alright. She was calmed down by learning that her family had not sustained any harm, as she had feared.

Together with her family, she arrived back at the church, so the wedding could go on as it needed to.
