Meteorologist becomes overnight weather star after viral video

Meteorologist Manuel Kelemen became an unlikely internet star after a video captured his visibly frustrated reaction to weather patterns, earning him the nickname "disbelieving" meteorologist. The clip, which went viral overnight, catapulted him into the spotlight, but not without attracting online detractors.

Kelemen has spoken out about the hateful comments he has received, but he is also using his newfound fame to address what he sees as political complacency. He criticized what he described as a political system that "oversleeps" through the summer heatwaves, implying a lack of urgency in addressing climate change.

Despite the challenges, Kelemen remains committed to his work and to raising awareness. He stresses the importance of individual action in mitigating climate impacts while also advocating for stronger political will and policy changes to combat the escalating effects of climate change. He believes that a combination of personal responsibility and governmental action is crucial.
