Global Toronto meteorologist Anthony Farnell’s dog Storm made an on-air appearance, and fans loved it!
Last Friday, the minigoldendoodleinterrupted Farnell’s live broadcast and searched for treats in front of the green screen, blocking some of the weather report.
“Love how the weatherman didn’t miss a beat and continued as if the dog wasn’t there. And kudos to Storm, who didn’t make a sound. Most dogs bark if they are ignored. Very professional,” one fan commented.
Another joked, “I’m not sure I heard a single word of what he said, Storm had all my attention, lol.”
Storm has his own Instagram account (@stormtheweatherdog), and after the viral broadcast last Friday, the account managershared a headshotof the dog in a red Global News bandana.
“I’m a member of the Global News team, that’s a given,” reads the photo’s caption. “Don’t act like you’re not impressed.”
Global Toronto viewers are no stranger to Storm as Farnell regularly takes the pet to work.
Farnell told the outlet his dog “has his own routine that includes a tour of the entire news station going desk to desk begging for treats.”
“The downside is I know he’s packing on the pounds because there’s probably over a dozen other employees that now bring in their own dog treats for him,” he added.
Storm has had other viral appearances in the past, including in 2012 whenhe interrupted Global Toronto anchor Leslie Robertsduring his evening news report.

“I had already brought my new little puppy into work once, and believe it or not, the Global News viewers helped me find the name Storm thanks to an online poll,” Farnell toldPawsh Magazine. “That was cute but, what happened the following month is what really made him a ‘GLOBAL’ sensation.”
