Is Ginger Zee OK? Fans ask 'GMA' star to 'stay safe' after she reports from dangerous location amid 'scary' flash floods
NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America’ anchor Ginger Zee has stepped out of the studio to report on the massive flash floods that have wreaked havoc in the states of Vermont and New York. Ginger is the chief meteorologist for ‘GMA’, having enjoyed the role for a decade. The 42-year-old host isn’t afraid to report from dangerous locations and has recently found herself in the middle of one.
The 'GMA' star reported from a dangerous location where a sinkhole had formed in someone’s yard. She took to Instagram to share the update with her followers who urged her to "stay safe" amid the horrific flash floods that have affected Vermont and New York.
Is Ginger Zee OK?
Ginger was in a woman’s front yard and reported that a huge sinkhole appeared and consumed the driveway. She then later elaborated on the flash floods situation in her Instagram post. She wrote, “Here in Cindy Beyer’s front yard. A sinkhole consumed her driveway. Debris piled up against the homes from the creek that became a seething river. Many in the Hudson Valley picking up more than 8 inches in about 6 hours. From here to Pennsylvania where they had a 1 in 1000 year flood. That means a 0.1% chance of this happening in a given year.” She explained further, “It’s rare. It’s devastating. And it’s not over — Vermont is ground zero today. Stay safe and avoid driving if you are in a flash flood warning!”

One user wrote, “Ginger don't fall out there!” Another said, “Ginger, be safe out there.” One commented, “Stay safe out there Ginger! We need you.” Another prayed for everyone’s safety and said, “I hope no one was hurt or swept away.”
Ginger’s birthday tribute to her mother
The 'GMA' star took to social media to celebrate her mother’s achievements on her 70th birthday. She posted photos of the mother-daughter duo on Instagram, sweetly writing in the caption, “Raise your hand if your mom turns 70 today! Now raise your hand if your 70-year-old mom decided to retire from a half-a-century career as a neonatal nurse practitioner and professor of nursing and go to medical school because she always wanted to…Wait, no one else? She’s truly one of a kind.” Ginger recently returned to 'GMA' after taking a break from her hosting duties to spend time with her family.
