As powerful storms swept across Central Florida on Monday morningnoitepg, an Orlando television station’s weather camera captured a tornado hitting the station.

“Take shelter!” a Fox 35 morning meteorologist, Brooks Garner, shouted on the air, warning co-workers to get under their desks — the designated safe spaces for such occurrences.

“There’s no free lunch,” said Sam Vickery, a neuroscientist at the Jülich Research Center in Germany and an author of the study.

A plethora of pathogens dominated headlines all summer, and some of that attention may have been warranted: Oropouche, a tropical infection, and dengue devastated South America; mpox is ravaging parts of Africa; and bird flu holds the potential to flare into a dangerous pandemic.

He had been delivering updates on tornado warnings for Volusia and Seminole counties when rainy and windy conditions rapidly worsened, turning images into a blurry gray on the monitor.

“We’re catching debris right now on the roof,” Mr. Garner said. “Seek shelter immediately,” he added. “Get under your desks, guys. Anchors, under your desks!”

He described debris flying across Interstate 4 just north of Orlando, into the neighborhood of Lake Mary and into Sanford,66br casino Fla.

“This is a confirmed tornado,’’ Mr. Garner announced to viewers as power to the station flickered out. “This is a very serious situation. This is a real, live tornado. It just hit our station.”

The whole episode was brief, lasting about a minute or so, and staff members continued to work and assess damage to the area — and to their own studio.

One Fox employee shared a photo of damage to vehicles in the station’s parking lot from the severe weather.

“Due to the weather impact, there is a collapsed home on the 2100 block of Blue Iris in Longwood and another damaged home,” the department said in an email. “Residents are currently safe from the collapsed home.” Two people inside the home were uninjured.

The Fire Department also shared photos of firefighters with saws working to remove toppled trees that blocked roadways. It said it was working with the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office and Emergency Management to assess any further damage to the area.

Preliminary estimates from the National Weather Service, which had been warning of tornadoes throughout the morning,confirmed that a tornado had carved about a 1.8-mile path through the Longwood area of Seminole County on Monday.

An assessment team with the Weather Service said the tornado may have reached an EF-2 (up to 115 m.p.h. winds) before it crossed Interstate 4 in Lake Mary where the Fox station is.

After warning his colleagues on the air, Mr. Garner turned to his local viewers with the same urgency as the storm moved across the area.

“Get to the ground level, an interior room away from the windows,” he said, adding, “I have been doing this a long time, and that’s the first time a tornado has hit me while I am doing the weather.”
