Where in the world is Jim Cantore? Still in Florida – for the time being.

Like it or not, Florida, he’s here.

We’re talking about Jim Cantore, the Weather Channel personality often jokingly (or not) referred to as the Angel of Death. When others evacuate, he swoops in.

This is why many fans think of him as the “Where’s Waldo?” of weather and love to stalk his whereabouts.

Ever since the 55 year old weatherman flew in to Palm Beach International on Friday, social media users have been tracking him as hard as he is tracking Dorian.

That evening Cantore was seen dining at waterfront seafood eatery Stuart Boathouse. The casual restaurant also boasted on Facebook that he was producing a segment from their “back yard” in the rain.

On Saturday morning, Cantore did the selfie thing with a bunch of fans in downtown Stuart, reports TCPalm.

The Connecticut native seems cautiously optimistic about Dorian’s path, which continued to shift away from Florida.

Cantore told locals there he hadn’t been assigned a new area yet. Though Dorian seems to be favoring the Carolinas right now.

“I think everybody’s pretty happy that we’re potentially missing this,” he said, according to the TC Palm story. “I mean it’s not out of the woods yet, but we’re looking a lot better off than we certainly were yesterday at this time.”

In a news release, The Weather Channel provided the celebrity weatherman’s location Sunday as “TBD,” to be determined.

His colleagues are spread out across the Southeast: Alex Wilson and Paul Goodloe in Charleston, S.C.; Chris Warren in Jacksonville; Mike Seidel in Melbourne; Dave Maikoff in Orlando; Felicia Combs in Savannah, Ga.; and Tevin Wooten in Vero Beach.

Maybe Cantore will just go back home to Atlanta where he belongs? Joking. We know wherever he is, Dorian is, too.
