Meteorologist Patrick Ellis was in the middle of his live weather forecast on the Jackson, Mississippi NBC affiliate WLBT when he was suddenly joined by a little helper by the name of Houston.
Backstory:
The station hosts a show with local lawyers that airs after the 6 p.m. Saturday newscast. Ellis says it’s not uncommon for the lawyers to bring their kids. One of those kids was Houston.
