WATCH: Weather Reporter Kawser Quamer Can't Stop Laughing Live on Air

BBC weather reporter Kawser Quamer tried her best to suppress her giggling fit after she was erroneously identified during a live telecast. And though she gave a valiant effort to maintain her professionalism by trying not to laugh, we're so glad she lost her composure.


The awkward telecast aired on Wednesday when BBC Scotland introduced their very own weather reporter with a banner at the bottom of the screen that read: "Aaron Ramsay, Ex-offender."

It took a few seconds for her to notice, but Quamer eventually saw the misnomer that referred to an earlier segment.

Unfortunately for her, any attempt at obscuring her laughter by turning her back towards viewers didn't serve her well, as the ruse to indicate to us something on the screen gave her absolutely nothing to work with.

The dam broke and she struggled to get back on track as she resumed with mention of "sunny spells."

Here's the clip below.

Apparently, the gaffe is not surprising given past shenanigans that tend to occur on BBC Scotland's "lunchtime" slot, with other reporters like Louise Lear losing it on air.

Wednesday's weather report continued with more funny business when Quamer, a.k.a. - "Aaron Ramsay," handed the news over to Catriona Shearer, who was identified on the ticker as 'Vicky Stewart, Aaron's fiancee.'

For Quamer, there was nowhere to hide, and those who were lucky enough to catch the wonderfully hilarious segment lauded her attempt at keeping her decorum. "You made my day with that. You held it together which was impressive," said a user on Twitter.

Some just appreciated the laughs.

Another played along with the BBC pranksters by praising "Aaron Ramsay's" recuperation.

At least she finished her segment.

And Quamer herself took to Twitter to express her appreciation for the support despite feeling "mortified."

She came out of the broadcast with her sense of humor intact.

Fellow giggle victim Catriona Shearer also shared her colleague's efforts in trying not to completely lose it.

And Quamer was all but pumped for the next shift. The forecast is unpredictable over at BBC Scotland.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Journalists from international news organizations have not been granted access to independently verify the reported death toll or the circumstances surrounding the strike.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
