NEW: Drag queen delivers the weather report on a local NBC-affiliated news channel in Portland, Maine, says a hurricane is coming for Raleigh, North Carolina.
Drag queen ‘Chartreuse Money’ is a “she/they” with chest hair in Maine.
“Honey, it is 80 degrees here in Portland right now, honey. And we are feeling the effects. Honey, the water is 56 degrees. Okay.”
Mr. Money incorrectly reported that there was a hurricane coming for North Carolina.
Money: “Hello everybody, I am Chartreuse Money and today as current temperatures right here, Saturday, it’s 2:40 p.m., honey. It is 80 degrees here in Portland right now, honey, and we are feeling the effects. The sun is out. All it took was a pride parade to bring the sunshine out today, but honey, it is hot all over the state. We’ve got 78 degrees in Lewiston. I know the people of Lewiston-Auburn are probably celebrating and jumping in the river. Please don’t do that, be safe because it is hot hot hot and we need to find relief. Sanford’s 81, Portsmouth, New Hampshire is a lovely 83, honey. The water is 56 degrees, okay? Now I know what you’re thinking, that sounds so tropical, but you still gotta be careful, okay? Hypothermia is real, so take it easy. 78 degrees in Waterville, 71 degrees in Greenville, and 76 in Millinocket. And shoutout to my friends up in Caribou, I see you up there, Caribou. It’s 73 degrees up there, hope you’re having a good old time.
Here’s the country, honey. It is hot and humid in the central part of the country near Chicago, I’m seeing. And down there near Raleigh, honey, there is an ‘H’ with circles, which I can only assume means hurricane. Doesn’t mean hurricane, honey, it means high pressure, honey. Don’t worry, don’t worry, there is no hurricane coming, Raleigh, North Carolina. Don’t worry. Atlanta, don’t you worry either. Sorry about that.”
