- A woman appeared on the scene, derailing the segment in a fit of laughter.
A meteorologist was giving a gentle, matter-of-fact warning to Oregonians to be careful in cold water when a colleague accidentally walked into frame.
Katie Zúñiga, who has been at Fox 12 Oregon since January 2023, smiled and laughed as her coworker absentmindedly wandered into the camera’s crosshairs.
The woman wearing a green shirt realized her mistake and backed away awkwardly while laughing.
The entire newsroom laughs for seconds, and the woman who derailed the segment can be heard saying, “I’m sorry!” several times after the funny mishap.
However, Zúñiga was all smiles and commented on his inability to recover immediately.

Until someone in the newsroom casually walks in front of the camera, interrupting the segment.
This woman steps back awkwardly and smiles as she realizes her mistake.
“I know I should pull myself together, but it was so funny,” he said, covering his mouth with his hand to stifle more laughter.
The woman who interrupted the weather report is then heard saying off-camera, “Oh my God, I’m going to leave now.”
But Zúñiga, despite not being able to get back to the topic of the segment when the interruption first occurred, finished the show strong.
After a fit of laughter, he once again reminded his audience of the cold waters of Oregon: “So, like I was saying, bring a life jacket, bring a friend, but remember those waters are very, very cold right now.” . .’
Fox 12 Oregon posted the clip on X on Saturday with three laughing emojis.
