Weather Channel's Jim Cantore gets giddy with excitement on-air

Weather reporters have it kind of rough. When everyone else is cooped up inside, all toasty and warm, they're thrust out into the cold, wind and stormy weather.

But The Weather Channel's Jim Cantore didn't let that get him down. While covering the New England blizzard in hurricane-like winds and single digit temps, the meteorologist got a dose of a spectacular weather phenomenon, and he was loving it.

See how Cantore reacts to thundersnow, a weather event like a thunderstorm but with snow, in the video above. Saying he couldn't contain his excitement would be an understatement!
