Close Captioning Bloopers

During tonight's live weather forecast on channel seven with Doug Hill, these gems from the close caption typist, struggling to keep up:

"There is a prick in the clouds."

and:

"There is a deworming in your future."

I translate that as there will be a break in the clouds and a warming in our future. But I had a good chuckle over it as I watched the weather at Happy Hour at Dakota.

But if I'm wrong and the close captionist was right, let's hope the prick in the clouds isn't the one doing the deworming.
