Meteorologist Goes Viral After Donning Iconic 'Clueless' Outfit For Weather Report

ITV meteorologist Laura Tobin paid homage to Alicia Silverstone's yellow suit in honor of the musical adaption of Clueless opening in London's West End—and she managed to sneak several of the movies iconic quotes into her weather report.

Bad weather? As if!

An ITV meteorologist in the UK channeled Alicia Silverstone's main character energy—and line delivery—in a recent morning weather report.


Clueless, the 1995 film based loosely on the classic novel Emma by Jane Austen, has turned into a classic of the teen romance genre. The movie is beloved by people across generations, including weather reporter Laura Tobin.

Tobin celebrated the film's new adaptation to London's West End theaters by dressing at Silverstone's character in the iconic yellow and black plaid skirt suit.

She also then worked in as many quotes from the movie as she could into one short weather report.

"So, I know lots of you were totally bugging since we lost the warmth and the sunshine of last weekend, but today is sunshine and showers."
"Now, today some of you said that you got wet yesterday, because you didn’t know it was gonna shower. Like, whatever. I totally told everybody yesterday."

She used some of the film's more iconic turns of phrase in describing the upcoming messy weather.

"Today's weather is like a full on Monet. It's just like a painting. See, from far away, it’s OK, but from up close, ooh, it’s just a big old mess."


People loved that the segment added joy to their day.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.
