Fake News
/Some nasty weather moved into the Columbus area yesterday, but one Nexstar station embellished the news quite a bit.
Nexstar’s WCMH posted that a possible funnel cloud was captured on a local traffic camera:
The spokesperson for the Ohio Department of Transportation, Matt Bruning tried to set the record straight and said the “funnel cloud” was nothing more than rain on the camera lens.
I’m seeing reports that one of our traffic cameras caught a funnel cloud in Delaware Co. Not really. Take a look. pic.twitter.com/iCESrnuQCO

Last we looked, WCMH still has its original post up.
