Fla. Sheriff Issues 'Trespass Warning' Against Jim Cantore

Santa Rosa Sheriff's Office via Facebook
The Santa Rosa Sheriff's Office issued this "trespass warning" against Jim Cantore.

Although hurricanes are serious business, the Santa Rosa (Fla.) Sheriff's Office has decided there is also room to lighten up a little.

The department has posted a "trespass warning" against Weather Channel meteorologist Jim Cantore on Facebook, writing, "Everyone knows what's in store when Jim Contore shows up. So we issued a little notice. lol."

Of course Cantore is well known for broadcasting live from areas dealing with hurricanes and other severe weather.

The "warning" reads in part, "non-business related visits only, winter months preferred."
Just in case someone doesn't get the joke, the warning concludes, "This is not a real tresspass. We like Jim, just not under these conditions."

Santa Rosa County, which hugs the Gulf Coast in the northwestern portion of Florida, was under a Hurricane Warning at the time of this story's publication.
