Paula Filgueiras and Guadalupe Sánchez (TVE) and Carmen Chao (‘The Critical View’) have had a very difficult time reporting live due to this inclement weather
The Ciarán storm has made the work of the reporters who have covered its damage at street level difficult. Paula Filgueiras and Guadalupe Sanchez (TVE) and Carmen Chao (‘The critical look’) have had a very difficult time reporting live due to this inclement weather, which has reached wind gusts of up to 160 kilometers per hour in certain places.
The first to experience problems throughout this complicated day was Chao, who even lost the sound of her live connection with ‘The Critical View’ from the Riazor Beach in A Coruña, although finishing it without many surprises: “It is not a day for combing your hair or for umbrellas here in Galicia“.
Filgueiras had more problems, as he had significant problems holding the umbrella with which he made a live connection with TVE’s Canal 24 Horas from A Coruña. “I don’t know if you listen to me, and if you have the ability to do this live. We appreciate the effort you are making to tell us what is happening right now in the northeast of the peninsula,” he said. Lluis Guilera.
“As you can see, the sea is very rough. We are on red alert and we are at the entrance to the bay. That is, we are not out to sea, where the waves can reach 9 meters high. That is why we maintain the moored inshore fleet,” Filgueras said. “Well, thank you very much, Paula, for this direct message, and as I said, thank you for the effort our colleague is making to inform us. Go to a safer area”, Guilera answered from the set.
Guadalupe Sánchez also had similar problems when making another live connection with TVE’s Andalusian Territorial News from a beach in Almería. The public broadcaster reporter had serious difficulties holding her microphone during her report due to the gusts of wind: “In fact, it is difficult for me to stay standing.”
