We've all been there - a weather-related meltdown - but few of us have done it on live TV while forecasting the weather.

Step forward Jim Kosek, a US weatherman who has become an internet sensation having lost the plot completely, on air, over a snow blizzard.

The meteorologist for AccuWeather.Com, starts off his report on a snow storm in Baltimore in the eastern state of Maryland relatively calmly.

"Oh boy, 14-22 inches of snow," he says, beginning his piece to camera slowly, but with an air of intense drama.

Suddenly, Kosek starts screaming at the top of his lungs.

"Our paralysing, crippling, record-breaking storm comes today," he yells.

"Road closures, flight cancellations in the hundreds, power outages by the tens of thousands, maybe the hundreds of thousands? Yes."

"Can I get a one-way ticket to New Orleans?" Kosek asks, before adding that the sunny weather will return on Sunday and Monday.

While some US bloggers have suggested Kosek's bizarre reaction to the severe weather conditions may have been more staged than genuine, the doubts have not stopped Kosek becoming a hit on YouTube where his fuse-out has attracted more than 300,000 views. Become one of them, after the jump.
